Answer:

The length of the rectangle is of 9 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving a quadratic equation:

Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:

ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0.

This polynomial has roots x_{1}, x_{2} such that ax^{2} + bx + c = a(x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2}), given by the following formulas:

x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}

x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}

\bigtriangleup = b^{2} - 4ac

Area of a rectangle:

A rectangle has width w and length l. The area is the multiplication of these measures, that is:

A = wl

The length of a rectangle is the sum of the width and one.

This means that l = w+1, or w = l - 1

The area direct angle 72 units. What’s the length, in units, of the rectangle

We want to find the length. So

wl = 72

(l-1)l = 72

l^2 - l - 72 = 0

Quadratic equation with a = 1, b = -1, c = -72. So

\bigtriangleup = (-1)^{2} - 4(1)(-72) = 289

l_{1} = \frac{-(-1) + \sqrt{289}}{2*(1)} = 9

l_{2} = \frac{-(-1) - \sqrt{289}}{2*(1)} = -8

Since the length is a positive measure, the length of the rectangle is of 9 units.

Lauren reads in the library for 1 hour 15 minutes. She leaves the library at 3:23 pm. at what time did she arrive?​
kompoz [17]
You can answer this problem by solving backwards. she read for 1 hour and 15 minutes so start with 1 hour before she left. 1 hour before 3:23 is 2:23. Now subtract the 15 minutes from that 15 minutes before 2:23 is 2:08.
Therefore the time is 2:08pm.

a gym membership costs $25 to join and $14 each month. Write and use and algebraic expression to find the cost of the membership
Klio2033 [76]
So the equation format you will be using is y=mx+b. m = slope and b = y int.
So since to join the membership you have to pay $25.00 that will be your y int. Because that is the balance you are starting with. And then since the times you are paying each month are remaining constant, your slope will be $14. Finally x = months or time. So your equation will be y=14(6)+25 or y=14x+25
