My answer is in the photo above
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiplying a(x) and b(x) together results in a quadratic equation (a trinomial). This trinomial looks like (a·b)(x) = (2)(x - 2)(x + 2). Note that this is a "special product;" (2)(x^2 - 4); there is no middle term.
The right answer is
0.627
<span>1st piece: x feet
2nd piece: 8-x feet
--------------------------
Use the "x" piece to form a circle:
Circumference = "x".
2(pi)*radius = x
radius = x/(2pi)
So, Area = pi[x/(2)]^2 = x^2/(4pi) = (1/4pi)x^2
=========================================================
Use the 10-x piece to form square:
side = (1/4pi)(10-x)
Area = side^2 = (1/16)(10-x)^2
Hope this helps! :)</span>
I believe the answer should be 77
