Answer:
4x^2 -12x +9 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a square is
A = s^2 where s is the side length
A = (2x-3) ^2
A = (2x-3) (2x-3)
FOIL
first 2x*2x =4x^2
outer 2x (-3) = -6x
inner -3*2x = -6x
last -3*-3 = 9
Add them together
4x^2 -6x-6x +9
Combine like terms
4x^2 -12x +9
The area is 4x^2 -12x +9 ft^2
Answer:
x = 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use ratios to solve
6 6+x
-------- = -----------
4 5
Using cross products
6*5 = 4 * (6+x)
30 = 24 + 4x
Subtract 24 from each side
30 -24 = 24+4x-24
6 = 4x
Divide each side by 4
6/4 = 4x/4
3/2 = x
Answer:
C = 2 * π * R = 2 * π * 14 = <u>87.9646 cm</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
All this means is that the perimeter, or circumference, is the distance or length around a shape or object. And the area is the amount of space inside the thing.
In today’s geometry lesson, you will review the formulas for finding the area and perimeter of basic geometric shapes.
Answer: x = 4 and x = -3/2
Procedure:
1) Given: 2x^2 - 5x - 12 = 0
2) Multiply both sides by : 2(2x^2) - 2(5x) - 2(12) = 0
3) Rearrange: (2x)^2 -5(2x) - 24 = 0
4) Notice that the common factor is (2x)
5) Set the parenthesis with the common factor inside:
(2x ) (2x ) =0
6) The first sign is the same sign of the second term of the trinomial, which is negative, the second sign is the product of the signs of the second and the third terms of the polynomial, which is (-)*(-) = + (positive)
(2x - )(2x + ) = 0
7) find two numbers that sum up - 5x and its product is -24.
- 8 + 3 = - 5
(-8)(+3) = -24
=> the numbers in the factors are -8 and +3
(2x - 8) (2x + 3) = 0
That is the factored equation. Now you can solve
8) a) 2x - 8 = 0 => 2x = 8 => x = 8/2 => x = 4
b) 2x + 3 = 0 => 2x = - 3 => x = - 3/2
Answer: the two solutions are x = 4 and x = -3/2
