Answer:
w =4 ft and l =10 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w = width
l = 2w+2
A = l*w
A = (2w+2)(w)
40 = (2w+2) w
Distribute
40 = 2w^2 +2w
Subtract 40
0 = 2w^2 +2w - 40
Dividing each side by 2
0 = w^2 +w -20
Factor
0 = (w+5) (w-4)
Using the zero product property
w+5 =0 w-4=0
w= -5 w=4
Since we cant have a negative length
w=4
l = 2w+2 = 2(4)+2 = 8+2 =10
The temperature changed a total of 14° over the course of 7 hours with an average change of 2° per hour drop.
Ok so pythagorean theorem is
a^2+b^2=c^2
plug it in
8^2+15^2=17^2
64+225=289
289=289
yass it works so that means they do make a right triangle
yes, they make a right triangle because they're a pythagorean triple and pythagorean theorem works when you plug the numbers in.
