Answer:

length = 100

width = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L = length of red rectangle

Let H = height of red rectangle

Equation1:   L+H=125 : we know the perimeter is 250 so L+H is 125

Equation2:   L*H=2,500 : we know the area is 2,500

Equation3:   L=125-H : subtracted H from both sides of Equation1

Equation4:   (125-H)*H=2,500 : substituted "125-H" for L into Equation2

Solve equation4:

  (125-H)*H=2,500   multiple terms on left side of equation

  125H - H^2 = 2,500   rearrange into standard form

  H^2 - 125H + 2,500 = 0

At this point you can "brute force" the answer with the quadratic formula:

H = (125 ± SQRT(125^2 - 4*1*2500) ) / 2

H = 100 or H = 25 : actually these are L and H

You could also factor the equation:

(H - 100) * (H - 25) = 0 : gives same answe

Why does a logarithmic equation sometimes have an extraneous solution?
jonny [76]

The main reason behind this is using properties of logarithm .

like

when solving

  • log_2(x+2)+log_2(x-3)=3

There you use multiplication property and make addition to multiplication then you get extraneous solution because in plenty of cases they occur

like

  • (-2)²=(2)²

But

  • -2≠2

Same happens in case of logarithm

8x² - 5x + 3x(4 - 2x) =8x² - 5x + 3x*4 - 3x*2x

= 8x² - 5x + 12x - 6x²

Now add the like terms

= 8x² - 6x² - 5x + 12x

This question<br>find the value of x y and z​
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

x = 6

y = 24

z = there is no z?

Step-by-step explanation:

All angles of a polygon add up to 360 degrees

The 2 parellel lines on top and bottom mean that there are 2 right angles on the left side

3y + 18 = 90

3y = 72

y = 24

15x + 30 + 10x = 180

25x = 150

x = 6
