Ok, we have a rectangle of length x by r.
At the extremes of length r, we add two semicircles.
So the perimeter will be equal to:
Two times x, plus the perimeter of the two semicircles (that can be thought as only one circle).
The radius of the semicircles is r, and the perimeter of a circle is:
C = 2*pi*r
where pi = 3.14
Then the perimeter of the track is:
P = 2*x + 2*pi*r.
b) now we want to solve this for x, this means isolating x in one side of the equation.
P - 2*pi*r = 2*x
P/2 - pi*r = x.
c) now we have:
P = 660ft
r = 50ft
then we can replace the values and find x.
x = 660ft/2 - 3.14*50ft = 173ft
So according to the picture you sent the first part is 2(x-8) (x+6)=0 so it’s the first answer. The second part the answer is (8;0) and (-6;0) the last answer in the second frame.
The reason the answer is those is because it’s using coordinates (x;y) and since we were solving for x we got the x coordinates. But since we got the x coordinates our y coordinates will be 0. If the answer was y=8 than out coordinates would be (0;8). Hope this makes sense
