The answer to your question is:
It is a quadratic equation in 'x', with 'n' mistakenly typed in the second term..
Although you didn't ask for the solutions to the equation, I'm already here
so I might as well go through it and find them:
<span><u>3x² - 2x - 5 = 0</u></span>
In terms of the generic quadratic formula:
A = 3
B = -2
C = -5
Plug those into the quadratic formula, and you discover that
<u>x = -1</u>
and
<u>x = ⁵/₃</u>
The original side length was 12m therefore the perimeter was 36m. 12/4 is 3 so the perimeter is now 9, and the difference between them is 27.
Your answer is -2 as the axis of symmetry is at -b/2a. So if you were to expand the equation, you would get y= x^2/4 +x -6 where b is 1 and 2a is ½ . Therefore -1 / ½ gives you -2
Answer: A. A=(1000-2w)*w B. 250 feet
C. 125 000 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of rectangular is A=l*w (1)
From another hand the length of the fence is 2*w+l=1000 (2)
L is not multiplied by 2, because the opposite side of the l is the barn,- we don't need in fence on that side.
Express l from (2):
l=1000-2w
Substitude l in (1) by 1000-2w
A=(1000-2w)*w (3) ( Part A. is done !)
Part B.
To find the width w (Wmax) that corresponds to max of area A we have to dind the roots of equation (1000-2w)w=0 ( we get it from (3))
w1=0 1000-2*w2=0
w2=500
Wmax= (w1+w2)/2=(0+500)/2=250 feet
The width that maximize area A is Wmax=250 feet
Part C. Using (3) and the value of Wmax=250 we can write the following:
A(Wmax)=250*(1000-2*250)=250*500=125 000 square feets
