Area of a rectangle is length x width.
Let the width = x
The length would be x +7. ( 7 inches longer than the width)
Area = 20
Set up the formula:
20 = x * x+7
Simplify the right side:
20 = x^2 + 7x
Subtract 29 from both sides:
X^2 + 7x -20 = 0
Solve using the quadratic equation
X = -b + sqrt(b^2 -4ac) / 2a
X = -7 + sqrt(7^2-4(1)(-20) / 2(1) (exact answer)
X = 2.178908 ( as a decimal)
The width is 2.178907 inches (round as needed)
The length would be 9.178907 inches ( round as needed.)
Depending on how you round, when you multiply them together you get approximately 20 square inches.
Hello there!
I'm not exactly sure of what answer you are looking for, however,
f(x)=ax^2+bx+c represents a quadratic function.
Quadratic functions always have their highest exponent at 2, nothing more and nothing less.
Examples of quadratic functions are...
•x^2
•3x^2
•3x^2+2
•3x^2+2x
•3x^2+2x+1
I really hope this helps!
Best wishes:)
Answer:
−39
Step-by-step explanation:
−6^2+5−6−2
=−36+5−6−2
=−31−6−2
=−37−2
=−39
Answer:
Yes, 39/100 is the correct answer. You can't necessarily simpify it any further than that
