Answer: 30


Step-by-step explanation:

you should draw a model of this. Draw a rectangle labeling opposite sides as x (width). then label the other 2 sides as x-6 (which is the length). If x(x-6)=720, then you should be able to solve. x^2 (squared)-6x=720. Then make it into a quadratic. x^2-6x-720, and solve. You'll get (x-30) and (x+24) meaning x can either equal 30, or -24. If you didn't know- you get positive 30 because x-30=0 (that's what (x-30) and (x+24) means). Obviously a side length can't be negative, so it's 30

f(x)=mx+b\to y=mx+b

We have two points:

(-3,\ 0);\ (-4,\ 7)

The point slope form of the line:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Substitute

m=\dfrac{7-0}{-4-(-3)}=\dfrac{7}{-1}=-7

y-0=-7(x-(-3))\\\\y=-7(x+3)\\\\y=-7x-21

Answer:

f(x)=-7x-21

Can someone help me with this please? Thank you!
Finger [1]

Answer:

528 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

First I would calculate the area of the side rectangles:

20 x 9 = 180 cm²

There are two identical rectangles on both sides so i would x2

180 x 2 = 360 cm²

The area of the middle rectangle:

6 x 20 = 120 cm²

The area of the triangles:

Area of a triangle = (Base x Height)/2

8 x 6 = 48

48 ÷ 2 = 24

There are two identical triangles on the bottom and the top so x2

24 x 2 = 48

Now add all the values up:

360 + 120 + 48 = 528 cm²

I hope this helps!
