Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of figure =

$w + x + x + y + y + y + y \\ = 1 \times w + 2 \times x + 4 \times y \\ = w + 2x + 4y$

Jessica is selling books during the summer to earn money for college. She earns a commission on each sale but has to pay her own

I believe it is B, as C and D both are based on the number of books sold while the only variable to determine the amount of money she earns are the additional doors she knocks on.

7. Use the quadratic formula to find the solution(s). x² + 2x - 8 = 0

Hey there!

Use the quadratic formula to find the solution(s). x² + 2x - 8 = 0

Answer :

x = -4 or x = 2 ✅

Explanation :

Quadratic formula : ax² + bx + c = 0 where a ≠ 0

The number of real-number solutions (roots) is determined by the discriminant (b² - 4ac) :

If b² - 4ac > 0 , There are 2 real-number solutions

If b² - 4ac = 0 , There is 1 real-number solution.

If b² - 4ac < 0 , There is no real-number solution.

The roots of the equation are determined by the following calculation:

$x = \frac{ - b \pm \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac } }{2a}$

Here, we have :

a = 1
b = 2
c = -8

1) Calculate the discriminant :

b² - 4ac ⇔ 2² - 4(1)(-8) ⇔ 4 - (-32) ⇔ 36

b² - 4ac = 36 > 0 ; The equation admits two real-number solutions

2) Calculate the roots of the equation:

▪️ (1)

$x_1 = \frac{ - b - \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac} }{2a} \\ \\ x_1 = \frac{ - 2 - \sqrt{36} }{2(1) } \\ \\ x_1 = \frac{ - 2 - 6}{2} \\ \\ x_1 = \frac{ - 8}{2} \\ \\ \blue{\boxed{\red{x_1 = -4}}}$

▪️ (2)

$x_2 = \frac{ - b + \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac } }{2a} \\ \\ x_2 = \frac{ - 2 + \sqrt{36} }{2(1)} \\ \\ x_2 = \frac{ - 2 + 6}{2} \\ \\ x_2 = \frac{4}{2} \\ \\ \red{\boxed{\blue{x_2 = 2}}}$
