- The two areas are the same.
- To find the area, we multiply the side lengths. Y=area
Rectangle 1: side lengths 4 and (x+1)
y=4(x+1)= 4x+4
Rectangle 2: side lengths 3 and (2x-2)
y=3(2x-2)= 6x-6
- Since the two areas are same, we can conclude that
4x+4=6x-6
-2x=-10, x=5
- Since x is 5, we can plug it into the equations to find y.
Option 1 with rectangle 1: y=4(5)+4, y=24
Option 2 with rectangle 2: y=6(5)-5, y=24
I graphed the linear equation on desmos.
Answer:
6
(x−7)(x−1) this is the correct answer
Answer:
-8x^12
Step-by-step explanation:
When you have an exponent outside of parenthesis, it is raising everything in the parenthesis to that exponent (in this case, the third). The first step to solve this is to multiply the exponents in the parenthesis by 3. This is called the power of a power rule.
-2 is being raised to the first power. 1x3 = 3, and x is being raised to the fourth power. 4x3 = 12, so you now have:
-2^3x^12
You can simplify -2^3: -2 x -2 x -2 = -8
This leaves you with -8x^12
You can check this by putting -8x^12 and (-2x^4)^3 into a graphing calculator. You know that you simplified correctly if they show the same graphs.
