Answer:
C(x) =
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Area of the field = 3600 square feet
Fencing charges = $3.50 per foot
Let the side along the river be 'x' feet and the other side of the 'B'
now,
Area of rectangle = Bx = 3600 square feet
or
B = feet
and total length to be fenced = x + 2B
therefore,
Total cost of fencing = Fencing charges × total length to be fenced
or
Total cost of fencing = $3.50 × ( x + 2B )
substituting the value of B from (1)
Total cost of fencing, C(x) =
or
C(x) =
Answer:
step 1: move the -4 to the right: x^2 -2x = 4
step 2: add 1 to each side: x^2 -2x + 1 = 4 + 1
step 3: factor the left side and simplify the right side: (x-1)^2 = 5
step 4: take the square root of each side: x - 1 = sqr root of 5
step 5: move the 1 to the other side: and
