Let the length equal x
Then the width would be 4x + 8 (8 feet more than 4 times the length)
Area = length x width:
5,472 = x * 4x+ 8
Simplify:
5472 = 4x^2 + 8x
Subtract 5472 from both sides:
4 x^2 + 8x - 5472 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to solve for x.
X = 36
Now you know the length is 36 feet
The width = 4(36) + 8 = 152 feet
Now find the perimeter: 152 + 152 + 36 + 36 = 376 feet.
The answer is B. 376
It would be greater, because 1 foot is equal to 12 inches. 8 times 12 is 96. Then 96 plus 6 inches in 102. So it would be greater.
Answer:
Option B) w = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to find the value of w to make the given expression true.
The given expression is:
Option B) w = 4 is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
length = (2x + 3) units
width = (x - 7) units
Area = 2( length × width)
Area = 2( (2x + 3) × (x - 7) )
Area = 2( 2x² - 14x + 3x - 21)
Area = 2 ( 2x² -11x - 21)
Area = 4x² - 22x - 42
3x-2=3
3x=3+2
3x=5
x=5/3
Answer : According to the information provided in the question, the value of 'x' is 5/3
