A rectangle is drawn so that the width is I feet
1 answer:
Answer:
Length = 4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of a rectangle be x.
Width is 1 feet shorter than the length, b = x-1
The area of the rectangle is 12 sq feet.
The area of a rectangle is given by :
A = length × width
So,
Neglecting the negative side, the length of the rectangle is equal to 4 feet.

The Annual Expenses are:
- Car Insurance = $850
- <u> Books </u>= <u>$400 </u>
Total = $1250
There are 12 months in a year so divide the Annual Expense by 12:
<u> 1 0 4</u>
12 ) 1250
<u> -12↓↓ </u>

Part A:
The first step of completing the square is writing the expression
as 
which expands to 
.
We have the first two terms exactly the same with the function we start with:
and 
but we need to add/subtract from the last term, 49, to obtain 41.
So the second step is to subtract -8 from the expression
The function in completing the square form is
Part B:
The vertex is obtained by equating the expression in the bracket from part A to zero
It means the curve has a turning point at x = -7
This vertex is a minimum since the function will make a U-shape.
A quadratic function
can either make U-shape or ∩-shape depends on the value of the constant 
that goes with . When is (+), the curve is U-shape. When (-), the curve is ∩-shape
Part C:
The symmetry line of the curve will pass through the vertex, hence the symmetry line is
This function is shown in the diagram below
