w + 4

------------------------

l l

l l w

l l

------------------------

Perimeter would be the sum of all the sides so: (w+4) + w + (w+4) + w

Perimeter is 60 yards according to your problem so: (w+4) + w + (w+4) + w = 60 yds

1.Simplify/combine like terms:

w + 4 + w + w + 4 + w =

4w + 8 =

Now it's a 2-step algebra equation

4w + 8 = 60

2.Subtract 8 on both sides

4w = 56

3.Divide both sides by 4

w = 14

What is the solution to this equation?
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Option (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is,

8e^{2x+1}=4

Taking natural log on both the sides of the equation,

\text{ln}(8e^{2x+1})=\text{ln}(4)

\text{ln}(2^3)+\text{ln}(e^{2x+1})=\text{ln}(2^2)

3ln(2) + (2x + 1)[ln(e)] = 2ln(2)

2n(2) - 3ln(2) = (2x + 1)

2x = -ln(2) - 1

2x=\text{ln}(\frac{1}{2})-1  [Since, -ln(2) = ln(1) - ln(2) = \text{ln}(\frac{1}{2})]

2x=\text{ln(0.5)}-1

x=\frac{\text{ln(0.5)-1}}{2}

Therefore, Option (D) will be the correct option.

Martha wrote an example of a quadratic function for a homework assignment. The function she wrote is shown. f(x) = 5x3 + 2x2 + 7
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The first term, 5x^3, can be eliminated.

The exponent on the first term, 5x^3, can be changed to a 2 and then combined with the second term, 2x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The highest degree allowed in a quadratic function is 2, so the third degree term (the first term) needs to be eliminated or changed. The change shown above is one of many possibilities.

2. The sum of two numbers is 30. Determine the two numbers if their product is a maximum.
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

X+y=30

X=30-y

Z=yx

Z=y(30-y)

D/dy

z=30–2y

At max 30–2y=0

2y=30 Y=15

Therefore x=15
