Answer:

a= 200

b = 210

Step-by-step explanation:

My assumption is, we have to find the length of sides of rectangle

Given

perimeter = 2a + 2b = 820 ft (i) (here a is smaller side and b is larger side)

area = a*b = 42,000 ft^2 (ii)

from eq (1)

2a + 2b = 820

=> 2(a+b) = 820

=> a+b = 820/2

=> a + b = 410

=> a = 410-b   (iii)

putting the value of a in eq(ii), we get

(410-b) *b = 42,000

410b - b^2 = 42,000

0 = b^2 - 410b + 42000

b^2 - 410b + 42000 = 0

b^2- 200b- 210b + 42000 = 0

b(b-200)-210(b-200) = 0

(b-200)(b-210) = 0

or

b= 210 and b = 200

if b is larger side than b =210

By putting value of b in eq(iii),

a = 410 -210 = 200

The sum of two numbers is 19 . When the second number is subtracted from the first​ number, the difference is 17 . Find the two
zhenek [66]

Answer:

19 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the first number and y represents second number

x + y = 19

x - y = 17 add two equations up

2x = 36 divide both sides by 2

x = 19 and since the difference is 17 the other number is 2

Tony’s club is selling oranges to raise money. For every box they sell, they get 1 1/8 dollars profit. They have sold 75 boxes a
Luden [163]
1\frac{1}{8} =  \frac{9}{8} = 1.125, 
 \\ 75*1.125= 84.375

84.375 is the profit ALREADY made, so now subtract that from 180 dollars to get
95.625 $ needed, now divide by amount of profit per box...

Answer should be 85 boxes

The price of a gallon of milk increased from $5.50 to $7.50. Describe the price increase as a percent.​
sweet [91]

Step-by-step explanation:

7.50= (1 + x/100 ) × 5.50

7.50/ 5.50 = 1+x/100

x/100 = 0.36

x= 36.36%

HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

See the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function f(x) = x² + 2x - 5

Zeros :

If f(x) = 0 i.e. x² + 2x - 5 = 0

The left hand side can not be factorized. Hence, use Sridhar Acharya formula and  

x= \frac{-2+\sqrt{2^{2}-4\times(-5)\times1 } }{2} and  

x= \frac{-2-\sqrt{2^{2}-4\times(-5)\times1 } }{2}

⇒ x = -3.45 and 1.45

Y- intercept :

Putting x = 0, we get, f(x) = - 5, Hence, y-intercept is -5.

Maximum point :

Not defined

Minimum point:  

The equation can be expressed as (x + 1)² = (y + 5)

This is an equation of parabola having the vertex at (-1,-5) and axis parallel to + y-axis

Therefore, the minimum point is (-1,-5)

Domain :  

x can be any real number

Range:  

f(x) ≥ - 6

Interval of increase:

Since this is a parabola having the vertex at (-1,-5) and axis parallel to + y-axis.

Therefore, interval of increase is +∞ > x > -1

Interval of decrease:

-∞ < x < -1

End behavior :  

f(x) = x^{2} +2x-5 =x^{2}  (1+\frac{2}{x} -\frac{5}{x^{2} } )

So, as x tends to +∞ , then f(x) tends to +∞

And as x tends to -∞, then f(x) tends to +∞. (Answer)
