Vertex of the equation is (-2.5, -2.25)

y=x^2+5x+4 ----> find x using -b/2a

-5/2=-2.5

Now plug it in the equation to find the y-value

(-2.5)^2+5(-2.5)+4=-2.25

Peter is trying to buy fencing for the perimeter of his garden. His garden is in the shape of a rectangle with a length of 2(x+6

RideAnS [48]

Given dimensions of a rectangular garden are:

length = 2(x+6) feet

width = 3.5x feet

using the distributive property on length we get, length = 2x+12

Perimeter of a rectangle is 2(length+width)

So, P = 2(2x+12+3.5x)

Solving it we get,

P = 2(5.5x +12) ..............adding like terms

P = $(2\times5.5)+(2\times12)$ .............multiplying and adding

P = 11x+24

So, perimeter is 11x+24 feet. This value of fencing will be needed.
