What is the side length, in inches, of the pets

tatiyna

Candy draws a square design with a side length of x inches for the window at the pet shop. She takes the design to the printer and asks for a sign that has an area of 16x2 – 40x + 25 square inches. What is the side length, in inches, of the pet shop sign?

Answer:

the length of the sign is $4x-5$ inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Area of the square of design = $16x^{2} -40x+25$

First we find the roots of equation $16x^{2} -40x+25=0$

The roots of the quadratic equation $ax^{2} +bx^{2} +c=0$ are given by

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

where $a=16, b=-40, c=25$

$x=\frac{40\pm\sqrt{(-40)^2-4\times 16\times 25}}{2\times 16}$

$x=\frac{40\pm\sqrt{1600-1600}}{32}$

$x=\frac{40\pm\sqrt{0}}{32}$

$x=\frac{40}{32}$

$x=\frac{5}{4}$

$4x=5\\4x-5=0$

That is, the factors of the polynomial $16x^{2} -40x+25$ are $4x-5$ and $4x-5$ .

So, Area of the square design = $16x^{2} -40x+25$ = $(4x-5)^{2}$

Area of a square = Length^2

Thus, the length of the sign is $4x-5$ inches

The High Roller, a giant ferris wheel in Las Vagas, casts a 242-foot shadow. A 6’3” tall man standing nearby casts a 2 3/4-foot

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

550ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple napkin math, so you know what both shadows are you need to find how tall the High Roller is we will use X for this.

$\frac{242ft}{6'3"} x \frac{x}{2'9"}$

Im not 100% I set it up right but essentially 242 divided by 2'9" and that equals 88

Take 88 and multiply that by 6'3" and you get your Height for the High Roller

What I did their was I scaled the humans height to that of the High Roller dividing it gives you a number you can use to scale the height of that human to how it should scale to the High Roller, which is why I took 88 and multiplied it by the human's height.

Hope this helped :)
