You can use factors to solve. Determine all the factor pairs of 24, find the two that are two numbers apart.
1, 24 X
2, 12 X
3, 8 X
4, 6 YES!
Algebraic way to solve using Quadratics:
l = 2 + w
A = lw
A = (2 + w)w Substitute (2 + w) for l
24 = (2 + w)w Substitute 24 in for the area
24 = 2w + w^2 Distribute
w^2 + 2w - 24 = 0 Set equal to 0 (put in standard form)
(w + 6) (w - 4) = 0 Factor
w + 6 = 0 and w - 4 = 0 Set each factor equal to 0.
So w= -6 or w = 4 ... -6 makes no sense for a length! So the width must be 4 and the length will be 4 + 2, which is 6.
Answer:
f^-1(x)=x/3+2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y < - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 2y > 12
Divide both sides by - 2, reversing the symbol as a result of dividing by a negative quantity.
y < - 6
4 2/3 = 14/3
15 = 15/1
14/3 * 15/1 = 14*15=210, 3*1 = 3
210/3 = 70
answer is 70
