The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula,
We substitute,
and
into the above formula to obtain the expression,
We now group the x and y terms on the Left Hand Side of the equation to get.
We now divide through by 2 to get,
Therefore the width of the rectangle is
Answer:
Option C is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
y = x^2-x-3 eq(1)
y = -3x + 5 eq(2)
We can solve by substituting the value of y in eq(2) in the eq(1)
-3x+5 = x^2-x-3
x^2-x+3x-3-5=0
x^2+2x-8=0
Now factorizing the above equation
x^2+4x-2x-8=0
x(x+4)-2(x+4)=0
(x-2)(x+4)=0
(x-2)=0 and (x+4)=0
x=2 and x=-4
Now finding the value of y by placing value of x in the above eq(2)
put x =2
y = -3x + 5
y = -3(2) + 5
y = -6+5
y = -1
Now, put x = -4
y = -3x + 5
y = -3(-4) + 5
y = 12+5
y =17
so, when x=2, y =-1 and x=-4 y=17
(2,-1) and (-4,17) is the solution.
So, Option C is correct.
It is expected to depreciate from 4400 to 800 in 6 years. The depreciation per year is the ratio
depreciation per year = (total depreciation) / (number of years)
The total depreciation is the change in value, so the depreciation per year is
(4400 - 800)/6 = 600
Karen expects the vehicle to depreciate by 600 each year.
