L=W+12
2L+2W=48
2(W+12)+2W=48
2W+24+2W=48
4W=48-24
4W=24
W=24/4
W=6 ANS. FOR THE WIDTH.
L=6+12=18 ANS. FOR THE LENGTH.
PROOF:
2*18+2*6=48
36+12=48
48=48
Hope this helps:)
Step-by-step explanation:
(1) Factor the GCF out of the trinomial on the left side of the equation. (2 points: 1 for the GCF, 1 for the trinomial) 2x²+6x-20=0
2x²+6x-20
2(x²+3x-10)
the factors are 2 and (x²+3x-10)
(2) Factor the polynomial completely. (4 points: 2 point for each factor)
2(x²+3x-10)
2(x²-2x+5x-10)
2(x(x-2) + 5(x-2)) group like terms
2(x+5)(x-2)
(3) If a product is equal to zero, we know at least one of the factors must be zero. And the constant factor cannot be zero. So set each binomial factor equal to 0 and solve for x, the width of your project. (2 points: 1 point for each factor)
constant = 2 cannot be zero
the other factors are (x+5) and (x-2)
(x+5)=0 => x= -5
or
(x-2)=0 => x=2
(4) What are the dimensions of your project? Remember that the width of your project is represented by x. (2 points: 1 point for each dimension)
thank you so much, sorry if it's a little confusing!!
(it is indeed confusing, because physical dimensions cannot be negative)
The dimensions of the project (assumed a rectangle) are +2 and -5
Answer: ARE THEIR OPTIONS TO CHOSE FROM
Step-by-step explanation:
If she maintains her average amount of movies bought every week, then she will buy 20 DVDs in 10 weeks. Explanation: she buys 4 every week, so if we want to find out how many are in 10 weeks, we must multiply two until we get to 10 ( five weeks ) then multiply that buy her average of movies. And that is how we get the answer of 20 DVDs! ( her at least I did )
Anyways, hope this helps!
