Two opposite sides of a rectangle are each of length x. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 12, then the area, as a function of

Reil [10]

Answer: $x(6-x)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Two opposite sides of a rectangle are each of length x.

Let the other adjacent side be y.

The perimeter of the rectangle is 12 units.

Perimeter of rectangle is given by :-

$P=2(\text{Sum of adjacent sides})\\\\\Rightarrow\ 12=2(x+y)\\\\\Rightarrow\ x+y=\dfrac{12}{2}=6\\\\\Rightarriow\ y=6-x$

The area of rectangle is given by :-

$A=\text{product of two adjacent sides}\\\\\Rightarrow\ A=xy=x(6-x)$

Hence, the area as a function x = $x(6-x)$

nlexa [21]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question isn't complete but I believe that you want to know the number of rides that Katie can take.

Based on the information in the question, we can form an equation. Let the number of rides that Katie can take be represented by x. Therefore,

12 + (1.25 × x) = 50

12 + 1.25x = 50

1.25x = 50 - 12

1.25x = 38

x = 38/1.25

x = 30.4

Therefore, Katie can take at most 30 rides.
