Answer:

The length of the park is 175 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the question

∵ The perimeter of a rectangular park is 500 feet

∵ The formula of the perimeter of the rectangle is P = 2(L + W)

∵ L is the length and W is the width

→ Equate the rule of the perimeter by 500

∴ 2(L + W) = 500

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ L + W = 250 ⇒ (1)

∵ The length of the park is 100 feet longer than the width

→ That means L is W plus 100

∴ L = W + 100 ⇒ (2)

→ Substitute L in (1) by (2)

∵ W + 100 + W = 250

→ Add the like terms

∵ (W + W) + 100 = 250

∴ 2W + 100 = 250

→ Subtract 100 from both sides

∵ 2W + 100 - 100 = 250 - 100

∴ 2W = 150

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ W = 75

→ Substitute the value of W in (2) to find L

∵ L = 75 + 100 = 175

∴ The length of the park is 175 feet

Answer:

  • (x -3)(x+3)(2x +1)
  • (x -1)(x +1)(x +3)
  • (2x -1)(2x +1)(x -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 2x³ +x² -18x -9 = x²(2x +1) -9(2x +1) = (x² -9)(2x +1) = (x -3)(x+3)(2x +1)

__

B) x³ +3x² -x -3 = x²(x +3) -1(x +3) = (x² -1)(x +3) = (x -1)(x +1)(x +3)

__

C) 4x³ -16x² -x +4 = 4x²(x -4) -1(x -4) = (4x² -1)(x -4) = (2x -1)(2x +1)(x -4)

_____

In each case, the third-level factoring mentioned in step 4 is the factoring of the difference of squares: a² -b² = (a -b)(a +b).

_____

The step-by-step is exactly what you need to do. It is simply a matter of following those instructions. You do have to be able to recognize the common factors of a pair of terms. That will be the GCF of the numbers and the least powers of the common variables.
