Answer:

The width of the trampoline is 8 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangular trampoline = 112 ft^{2}

let the width of the trampoline be represented by w, but,

length = w + 6

Given that the situation has been represented by the equation;

w^{2} + 6w - 112 = 0

w^{2} + 14w - 8w - 112 = 0

(w^{2} + 14w) - (8w + 112)

w(w + 14) - 8(w + 14)

(w + 14)(w - 8)

So that;

w + 14 = 0 or w - 8 = 0

w = -14 or w = 8

Thus, w = 8

The width of the trampoline is 8 feet.

Give the coordinates of a point on the line whose equation in point-slope form is y − (−3) = 1 4 (x − 9).
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

● y -(-3) = (1/4) (x-9)

Replace 1/4 by 0.25 to make it easier

● y + 3 = 0.25(x-9)

● y + 3 = 0.25x - 2.25

Add 3 to both sides

● y +3-3 = 0.25x -2.25-3

● y = 0.25x -5.25

To the coordinates of a point from this line replace x by a value.

The easiest one is 0.

● y = 0.25×0 -5.25

● y = 5.25

5.25 is 21/4

So the coordinates are (0, 21/4)
