We can write equations, using x and y as the length and width:

xy=40
2x+2y=26

Divide the second equation by two to get:
xy=40
x+y=13

Thus, x=13-y.

We now have (13-x)x=40, so
13x-x^2=40
and x^2-13x+40=0

Factoring, we get:
(x-5)(x-8)=0

So, x can be either 5 or 8 (and y will be the other option).  Thus, the length and width are 8 and 5.

Find the net change in the value of the function between the given inputs. h(t) = t2 + 2; from −5 to 8
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

39

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function :

h(t) = t² + 2

From t = 5 to t = 8

when, t = 5

h(5) = 5² + 2

h(5) = 25 + 2

h(t) at t = 5 ; equals 27

when, t = 8

h(5) = 8² + 2

h(5) = 64 + 2

h(t) at t = 8 ; equals 66

Net Change :

h(8). - h(5)

66 - 27 = 39

If you were to solve the following system by substitution, what would be the best variable to solve for and from what equation?2
aivan3 [116]

The second equation because they all have a common factor of 3. You can get x by itself. However, with the first one, you'll end up with fractions instead.
