1. Niles is making a map of his neighborhood. He uses a scale in which 1 cm = 5 km. The distance between his house and the school is 8.5 km.
How many centimeters will there be between his house and school on the map?
1 cm = 5km
8.5 ÷ 5 = 1.7
There will be 1.7 centimeters between his house and school.
Length =l
Height = h
Area function = l * h = 924
Perimeter function = 2i + 2h = 122
Divide by 2
I + h = 61.
Plug in I or h for the other variable
I * (61 - I) = 924
61i - i^2 = 924
Factor the function
(-I + 28)(I - 33) = 0
l = 33 as l cannot be negative
61 - 33 = 28
h = 28
Difference between h and l is 33-28=5
