The figure is a rectangle so the formula is area = length *width
So the area is 432
Answer:
The length of the garden=14 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Step 1: Determine the dimensions of the garden</em>
length of the garden=x feet
width of the garden=(x-4) feet
<em>Step 2: Determine the area of the garden</em>
Area of the garden=length×width
where;
area=140
length=x
width=x-4
replacing'
x(x-4)=140
x²-4x-140=0, solve the quadratic equation;
x={-b±√(b²-4ac)}/2a
x={4±√4²-4×1×-140}/2×1
x={4±√(16+560)}/2
x={4±√576}/2
x=(4±24)/2
x=(4+24)/2=14, or (4-24)/2=-10, take x=14
The length=14 feet, width=(14-4)=10 feet
The length of the garden=14 feet
Answer:
- local minimum at x = -3-2√14
- local maximum at x = -3+2√14
Step-by-step explanation:
The first derivative simplifies to ...
d/dx( ) = -(x^2 +6x -47)/(x^2 -9x +20)^2
This has zeros that can be found by the usual methods of solving quadratics:
x = -3 ±2√14
The positive value of x corresponds to what I might call an "apex." (See the first attachment.) The negative value is where the function turns around an approaches the horizontal asymptote from below. (See the second attachment.)
-5-8
Same signs so you add and keep the sign
when you add you get -13
Answer:
46
Step-by-step explanation:
81 divided by 9 is 9. Therefore it takes 9 miles a gallon. Divide 414 by 9 to get 46 gallons for 414 miles
