Let the length be l in this equation.

We know that the perimeter of a rectangle is w2 + l2 = P

Width is defined in terms of length, so we know w = l2 - 20

We can substitute this value of w into the formula for perimeter to find the length.

(l2 - 20)2 + l2 = 182

l4 - 40 + l2 = 182

l4 + l2 = 222

l6 = 222

l = 37

So the length is 37. Now that we've found the length, we can go back to the Perimeter formula again and find width.

w2 + (37)2 = 182

w2 + 74 = 182

w2 = 108

w = 54

Width is 54. Now with both of these values found, we can calculate area with the formula l * w = A

37 * 54 = A

1998 = A

So the area of the rectangle is 1998 yards^2.

The graph of an exponential function passes through (1, 10) and (4, 80). Find the function that describes the graph.
svetlana [45]

Answer:

  • y = 5*2ˣ

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Exponential function:</u>

  • y = abˣ

<u>Ordered pairs given:</u>

  • (1, 10) and (4, 80)

<u>Substitute x and y values to get below system:</u>

  • 10 = ab
  • 80 = ab⁴

<u>Divide the second equation by the first one and solve for b:</u>

  • 80/10 = b³
  • b³ = 8
  • b = ∛8
  • b = 2

<u>Use the first equation and find the value of a:</u>

  • 10 = a*2
  • a = 5

<u>The function is:</u>

  • y = 5*2ˣ
