Answer:

For the rectangle

Length=ℓ

Breadth=b

Area is 12 cm2

ℓb=12

Perimeter is 16 cm

2(ℓ+b)=16

ℓ+b=8

Substitute b=12ℓ from first equation

ℓ+12ℓ=8

ℓ2+12=8ℓ

ℓ2−8ℓ+12=0

Use quadratic formula (x=−b±√b2−4ac2a) to find ℓ

ℓ=−(−8)±√(−8)2−(4×1×12)2×1

ℓ=8±√162

ℓ=8±42

ℓ1=8+42=6

ℓ2=8−42

Simplify x^2+xy-yx+y^2 + y^2+yz-zy+z^2 + z^2+zx-xz+x^2

Artemon [7]

Answer:

2x^2 + 2y^2 + 2z^2

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+xy-yx+y^2 + y^2+yz-zy+z^2 + z^2+zx-xz+x^2

First step is to put all the same ones together

( FYI, xy and yx is the same thing, just like how

2 x 3 and 3 x 2 is the same thing) this time I'll bracket the groups to make it easier on the eyes

(x^2 +x^2) + (xy - xy) +( y^2 + y^2) + (yz - yz) +

(z^2 +z^2) + (zx - zx)

2x^2 + 2y^2 + 2z^2

All the others just cancel themselves out, for example, xy-xy

When anything minus themselves it will become 0

Drive Down is a racing video game. The game gives each player an initial amount of $5,000 in virtual money. After that, a player

Sholpan [36]

Independent quantity (x) is number of races won
dependent quantity f(x)...or y is total virtual money
the function is : f(x) = 500x + 5000 or y = 500x + 5000

Archy [21]

Answer:

-6x^6y^5

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to find p such that

(-3 $x^{3}$ y)(p) = 18 $x^{9}y^{4}$

So just divide to find p

p = $\frac{18x^{9}y^{4} }{-3x^{3}y}$ = -6 $x^{6}y^{5}$

What is the domain and range and function ??? Then can u explain how u did it please and thank you

enot [183]

The domain is
$- 10 \leqslant x \leqslant 10$
and the range is
$- 5 \leqslant y \leqslant 5$
Domain is x values (horizontal axis), while range is y values (vertical axis). On a line like this one, domain is calculated from the left most point to the right most, while range is calculated from the down most to the upmost.
Because this line is a solid line rather than a dotted line, less than or equal to
$\leqslant$
signs are used rather than just
$<$
less than signs.
