Answer:

l=102 feet, w=68 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w=width and l=length

P=2l + 2w

And we know that w=2/3l

So, using substitution...

340=2l + 2(2/3l)

340=2l + 4/3l

340=6/3l + 4/3l

340=10/3l (now multiply both sides by 3 to get rid of fraction)

1020=10l

So l=102

Now plug in to get w

2(102)+2w=340

204+2w=340

2w=136

w=68

Now check:

2(102)+2(68)=

204+136=

340 It works!

How do I solve for h
WITCHER [35]
All the triangles are similar, so the ratio of (long leg)/(short leg) is the same. The long leg of ΔADB is
.. AD = AC -DC = 20 -4
.. AD = 16

Then
.. (long leg)/(short leg) = AD/DB = BD/DC
.. 16/h = h/4
.. h^2 = 64
.. h = 8

Selection D is appropriate.

_____
You may see this again. The altitude (h) from the right angle in a right triangle is the geometric mean of segments AD and DC. That is,
.. h = √((AD)*(DC))

Explain the steps necessary to convert a quadratic function in standard form to vertex form
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's an example to illustrate the method:

f(x) = 3x^2 - 6x + 10

First divide the first 2 terms by the coefficient of x^2 , which is 3:

= 3(x^2 - 2x) + 10

Now  divide the -2 ( in -2x) by 2 and write the x^2 - 2x in the form

(x - b/2)^2 - b/2)^2  (where b = 2) , which will be equal to x^2 - 2x in a different form.

= 3[ (x - 1)^2 - 1^2 ] + 10 (Note: we have to subtract the 1^2 because (x - 1)^2 = x^2 - 2x  + 1^2  and we have to make it equal to x^2 - 2x)

= 3 [(x - 1)^2 -1 ] + 10

= 3(x - 1)^2 - 3 + 10

= <u>3(x - 1)^2 + 7 </u><------- Vertex form.

In general form the vertex form of:

ax^2 + bx + c  = a [(x - b/2a)^2 - (b/2a)^2] + c .

This is not easy to commit to memory so I suggest the best way to do these conversions is to remember the general method.
