Answer:

Length = 3

Width = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is 20 feet

The area is 21 feet

Let x represent the length

Let y represent the width

20 = 2(x+y)

x+y= 20/2

x+y = 10.........equation 1

x × y= 21......equation 2

From equation 1

x= 10-y

Substitute 10-y for x in equation 2

(10-y)y= 21

10y - y^2 = 21

y^2 -10y + 21= 0

After factorization the result will be

(x-3)(y-7)

x-3= 0

x= 0+3

x= 3

y-7= 0

y= 0+7

y= 7

Hence the length is 3 and the width is 7

What relations are functions

Inessa05 [86]

The requirement is that every element in the domain must be connected to one - and one only - element in the codomain.

A classic visualization consists of two sets, filled with dots. Each dot in the domain must be the start of an arrow, pointing to a dot in the codomain.

So, the two things can't can't happen is that you don't have any arrow starting from a point in the domain, i.e. the function is not defined for that element, or that multiple arrows start from the same points.

But as long as an arrow start from each element in the domain, you have a function. It may happen that two different arrow point to the same element in the codomain - that's ok, the relation is still a function, but it's not injective; or it can happen that some points in the codomain aren't pointed by any arrow - you still have a function, except it's not surjective.

Answer:

$x^2 - 2x + 10$ , option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Complex numbers:

The most important relation that involves complex numbers is given by:

$i^2 = -1$

Solving a quadratic equation:

Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:

$ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0$ .

This polynomial has roots $x_{1}, x_{2}$ such that $ax^{2} + bx + c = a(x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2})$ , given by the following formulas:

$x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}$

$x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}$

$\bigtriangleup = b^{2} - 4ac$

In this question:

The solutions are:

$x_1 = 1 - 3i, x_2 = 1 + 3i$

We have to find the polynomial. All option have $a = 1$ . So

$(x - (1 - 3i))(x - (1 + 3i)) = x^2 - x(1 + 3i) - x(1 - 3i) + (1 - 3i)(1 + 3i) = x^2 - x -3ix - x + 3ix + 1^2 - (3i^2) = x^2 - 2x + 1 - 9i^2 = x^2 - 2x + 1 - 9(-1) = x^2 - 2x + 10$

The correct answer is given by option b.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you first have to find the domain by finding where the expression is defined

so the answer would be x>5
