Answer:

The garden is 9 feet wide and 26 feet long.

Step-by-step explanation:

L = W+17

area = LW = 234

(W+17)W = 234

W²+17W-234 = 0

Quadratic formula

W = [-17 ± √(17² – 4·1(-234))] / [2·1]

 = [-17 ± √1225] / 2

 = [-17 ± 35] /2

 = -26, 9

-26 is an extraneous solution

W = 9

L = W+17 = 26

The garden is 9 feet wide and 26 feet long.

The equation of a circle centered at the origin is x^2+y^2=16. what is the radius of the circle?
vekshin1

Answer:

The center is (0,0) and the radius is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+y^2=16.

The equation of a circle can be written in the form

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2  where ( h,k) is the center and r is the radius

(x-0)^2+(y-0)^2=4^2

The center is (0,0) and the radius is 4

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

D. (-3, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The original point is (3, -2)

The rule for reflecting across the x-axis is (x, y) -> (x, -y)

(3, -2) -> (3, 2)

The rule for reflecting across the y-axis is (x, y) -> (-x, y)

(3, 2) -> (-3, 2)
