Answer: 1)
2) 55 points
Step-by-step explanation:
1) A= 8w + 18, w=1.25
A = 8(1.25) + 18
A = 10 + 18
A = 28ft^2
2) 25 points to start with, additional 5 points per magazine they sell, m = number of magazines they sell
total points = 25 + 5m
How many if they sell 6?
total = 25 + 5(6)
= 25 + 30
total = 55
<h3>Answer: -2w^2 + 25w = 25 or -2w^2 + 25w - 25 = 0</h3>
================================================================
Explanation:
Refer to the diagram below. The width is w. We have two opposite and parallel sides equal to this. The other two parallel congruent sides are L = 25-2w meters long. We start with the total amount of fencing, and then subtract off the two width values, so 25-w-w = 25-2w.
The area of the rectangle is
Area = length*width
Area = L*W
Area = (25-2w)*w
Area = 25w - 2w^2
Area = -2w^2 + 25w
Set this equal to the desired area (25 square meters) to get
-2w^2 + 25w = 25
and we can subtract 25 from both sides to get everything on one side
-2w^2 + 25w - 25 = 0
side note: The two approximate solutions of this equation are w = 1.0961 and w = 11.4039 (use the quadratic formula or a graphing calculator to find this)
