Answer:

width = 8 ft & length = 32 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the width be x and length be 4x.

we know, Perimeter = 2(l+b)

now,

2(4x + x) = 80

10x = 80

x = 80/10 = 8

x = 8

therefore,

width = x = 8 ft

length = 4x = 4 × 8 = 32 ft.

hope this helps you !

Mold grows on bread and every day it doubles by the eighth day the entire bread is covered with mold when was half the bread cov

Brut [27]

Answer:

The mold will cover half the area as much are one day before it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Every day the mold on bread grows doubles

And by 8th day entire bread covered with it.

To Find:

When was half the bread covered by mold.

Solution:

It is said that area covered by mold doubles on each day

Total days taken to cover entire bread are 8

Let Area of bread be A

So Area covered (A) corresponds to 8 days with doubling.

So on previous day it should What ever area on 8th day/2

i.e A(8)/2

Similar on 6th day A(7)/2

So on 5ht day =A(6)/2 ,4th= A(5)/2, on 3rd= A(4)/2, on 2nd=A(3)/2

On 1st =A(2)/2

So we required Area= half of total.

One day before the 8th day will be 7th day

on that day it will cover half are so that on next day will cover the double of the previous area consumed.

Which of the following is the solution set of x² + 8x + 12 = 0?

raketka [301]

Answer:

$\fbox{\begin{minipage}{9em}x = -2 and x = -6\end{minipage}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$x^{2} + 8x + 12 = 0$

Solve for:

$x$

Solution:

Step 1: Select the formula to solve for $x$

There are some ways to solve quadratic equations.

One of the simple way (if possible) is performing the factorization.

Another way is using the quadratic formula.

Here, we are going to use factorization.

Step 2: Perform factorization

$x^{2} + 8x + 12 = 0$

<=> $x^{2} + 2x + 6x + 12 = 0$

<=> $(x^{2} + 2x) + (6x + 12) = 0$

<=> $x(x + 2) + 6(x + 2) = 0$

<=> $(x + 2)(x + 6) = 0$

<=> $x = -2$ or $x = -6$

Hope this helps!

PLEASE HELP I WILL BRAINLIST

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they intersect you can just solve for x and y

since y=-4x and y=x^2+2x+8, you can set -4x=x^2+2x+8

add 4x to both sides to make 0=x^2+6x+8

and factor out (x+4)(x+2)

so the solutions for x are -4 and -2

then insert the two values for x into the first equation

so y=-4(-4) and y=-4(-2)

so y=16 and y=8 when x=-4 and x=-2

so the smallest value for y in both equations is 8

Please give brainliest :)
