The perimeter of a rectangle is 42 inches, and its area is 110 square inches. find the length and width of the rectangle.

lorasvet [3.4K]

$p = 2w + 2l$ $p = 42$
$a = l * w$ $a = 108$

You want to make either the length or width variable (I chose the width variable to be by itself. It doesn't matter) by itself by:

Divide both sides by 2.
(p) ÷ 2 = (2w + 2l) ÷ 2
$2's$ $cancel$ $out$
$\frac{p}{2} = w + l$

Subtract both sides by either length or width depending on what variable you chose to make by itself (in this case I subtracted the length variable because I wanted the width variable by itself).
$\frac{p}{2} - l = w + l - l$
$l's$ $cancel$ $out$
p/2 - l = w

$a = l * w$

You replace w with the equation above p/2 - l = w
$a = l( \frac{p}{2} - l)$

Multiply out the L.
$a = \frac{p}{2}l - l^{2}$

Plug in all your numbers a = 110 and p = 42
$110 = \frac{42}{2}l - l^{2}$
$110 = 21l - l^{2$

Move everything to the left side so $l^{2}$ would be positive (makes the equation easier when $l^{2}$ is positive).
$l^{2} - 21l + 110 = 0$

Factor.
$(l -10)(l-11) = 0$

Make each parenthesis set equal to 0.
$l-11=0$ $l-10=0$

Add.
$l = 11$ $l = 10$

By doing this you solve for both the width and length so the answer is:
w = 11 L = 10

Use the parabola tool to graph the quadratic function y=-1? - 2.0 +8

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't have graphing facilities but can give you the vertex and 1 other point.

Given a parabola in standard form

y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )

Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is

x = - $\frac{b}{2a}$

y = - x² - 2x + 8 ← is in standard form

with a = - 1 and b = - 2 , then

x = - $\frac{-2}{-2}$ = - 1

Substitute x = - 1 into the equation for corresponding value of y

y = - (- 1)² - 2(- 1) + 8 = - 1 + 2 + 8 = 9

vertex = (- 1, 9 )

To obtain another point substitute any value for x into the equation

x = 0 : y = 0 - 0 + 8 , then (0, 8 ) is a point on the graph

x = 2 : y = - (2)² - 2(2) + 8 = - 4 - 4 + 8 = 0 then (2, 0 ) is a point on the graph
