Annie is framing a photo with a length of 6 inches and a width of 4 inches. The distance from the edge of the photo to the edge

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Part a) The quadratic function is $4x^{2} +20x-39=0$

Part b) The value of x is $1.5\ in$

Part c) The photo and frame together are $7\ in$ wide

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) Write a quadratic function to find the distance from the edge of the photo to the edge of the frame

Let

x----> the distance from the edge of the photo to the edge of the frame

we know that

$(6+2x)(4+2x)=63\\24+12x+8x+4x^{2}=63\\ 4x^{2} +20x+24-63=0\\4x^{2} +20x-39=0$

Part b) What is the value of x?

Solve the quadratic equation $4x^{2} +20x-39=0$

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem

we have

$4x^{2} +20x-39=0$

so

$a=4\\b=20\\c=-39$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-20(+/-)\sqrt{20^{2}-4(4)(-39)}} {2(4)}$

$x=\frac{-20(+/-)\sqrt{1,024}} {8}$

$x=\frac{-20(+/-)32} {8}$

$x=\frac{-20(+)32} {8}=1.5\ in$ -----> the solution

$x=\frac{-20(-)32} {8}=-6.5\ in$

Part c) How wide are the photo and frame together?

$(4+2x)=4+2(1.5)=7\ in$

To get the probability that at least 8 of the words on the test are words that students know we need to do the following calculations.

<span>=[C(16,8)*C(10,2) + C(16,9)*C(10,1) + C(16,10)*C(10,0)] / C(26,10)

15PTS!!!! HELPPPP!!! Determine the length of fencing around an 80 m by 170 m rectangular playing field if fence is to be 25 m ou

marshall27 [118]

Perimeter=2L+2W, in this case L=80+2(25) and W=170+2(25) so

P=2(L+W)=2(80+50+170+50)

P=2(350)=700m
