This needs to be found by substitution and then by factoring. First we know that, using the perimeter formula for a rectangle, the perimeter is 46=2L+2W and the area is 76=L*W. We need to solve for one of those variables cuz we have too many unknowns right now. Let's solve the perimeter formula for L: 46=2L+2W, 2L=46-2W and L=23-W. Now that we have a value for L in terms of W, sub that L value in to the area formula to solve for W: 76=L*W, 76=(23-W), 76=23W-W^2, and W^2-23W+76=0. We have to factor that now to solve for the 2 values of W. When we factor that, we get that W=19 and W=4. Let's first try out the W value of 19 in our L substitution formula: L=23-W so L=23-19 and L=4. That means that we have a Width of 19 and a Length of 4. Trying out the other W of 4 we get L=23-W so L=23-4 and L=19. That gives us a Width of 4 and a Length of 19. In both cases we have a combination of 4 and 19. So whether we say that the length is shorter than the width or that the width is shorter than the length doesn't matter because we only have 2 values for both and they want the shorter of the 2 sides in number not definition. In other words they don't want you to decide if width is shorter or longer than length, they only want the number value for the shorter side which is 4. That's your answer: 4
The ratio of the height (h) of the streetlight to its distance to the end of Laura's shadow is the same as the ratio of Laura's height to her distance from the end of her shadow.
.. h/(12+9) = 5'4"/9
.. h = (21/9)*5'4" = 12 4/9 feet
.. h = 12 ft 5 1/3 inches
The streetlight is 12 ft 5 1/3 inches tall.
The answer you want would be C.52
Reason: 32+5= 37 that is the 1st and 2nd term. 37+5=42 thatis the 3rd term. 42+5=47 that's the 4th term. And 47+5=52 that's the 5th term.
Hope it helps!!
Answer: 7) Max: y = 52
8) Min: y = -51
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The Max/Min is the y-value of the intercept.
- Max is when the a-value is negative.
- Min is when the a-value is positive.
First, find the x-value of the vertex using the Axis of Symmetry formula:
x = -b/2a. Then plug the x-value into the equation to find the y-value.
7) y = -2x² - 16x + 20
↓ ↓ ↓
a= -2 b= -16 c=20
Max: y = -2(-4)² - 16(-4) + 20
= -2(16) + 64 + 20
= -32 + 84
= 52
*********************************************************************************************
7) y = x² + 12x - 15
↓ ↓ ↓
a= 1 b= 12 c= -15
Max: y = (-6)² + 12(-6) - 15
= 36 - 72 - 15
= 36 - 87
= -51
