Answer:
A. f(x)=x^2+x+0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
If x represents Lindsey's distance at 2:00 PM, then 2x represents Kara's distance at 2:00 PM because she walked twice as far as Lindsey. Then adding on the values we got for 2:30 PM, we get that Kara walked a distance of 2x+1 and Lindsey walked a distance of x+0.5 at the time of 2:30 PM. Now, we know that they have formed a right triangle because we are given the directions they walked in; east and north. This allows us to use a formula for the area of a right triangle: 1/2(L x W). Plugging in our values, we get...
1/2(2x+1)(x+0.5)
which simplifies to...
1/2(2x^2+2x+0.5)
which further simplifies to...
x^2+x+0.25
which is our answer.
Try to imagine this word problem, there is a wall and a ladder leaning against it, the space from the bottom of the ladder is labeled 6 and the length of the height the ladder reaches on the wall is 8. Imagine this as a right triangle now, where the length of the ladder is the hypotenuse and the length of the legs of the triangle is 6 and 8. Because we know this, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2
We then plug in the values and you get 6^2+8^2=c^2
When you simplify, you get 36+64=c^2 which is c^2=100
When you solve for c, you get c=10 which would be the length of the ladder :)
Hi,
Following the rules of PEMDAS you first subtract in the parentheses.
(5-2)=3
Then multiply the parentheses.
(3)(-6)=-18
Solve the exponent.
-4^2=16
Then you add -18 and 16 to get -2.
So the answer is B.-2.
I hope this helps.
Answer:
Length = Width * 3
Width = 2 ft
Length = 2 ft * 3 = 6 ft
Perimeter = (L * 2) + (W * 2)
P = 16 ft
Area = L * W = 12 square feet
