The length of a rectangle is 4 times its width and the perimeter is 150 feet. What is the width of the rectangle?

A.
75 feet

B.
30 feet

C.
15 feet

D.
60 feet

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: We know that L = 4W, and P = 2l + 2w, so 150 = 2L + 2w
So, 150 = 2*4w + 2w
      150 = 8w + 2w
      150 = 10w
       w = 150/10
       w=15
So, the Width of the Rectangle is 15 feet.
And if they asked you to find the length,
 L = 4W
L = 4*15
L=60 
so, the Length will be 60 feet.

Hope this Helps! :)
Answer 2
Answer: Let width be xSo2(x+4x)=10x=150x = 15 feet

What is x2+2x-8=0 by factoring ?

Answers

Answer:

(x+4)(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find two numbers that multiply to -8 and add up to 2. These are 4,-2.

Rewrite the polynomial:

x^2-2x+4x-8

and factor each pair:

x(x-2)+4(x-2) = (x+4)(x-2)

Rewrite the function f(x)=-4(x-3)^2+16 in the form f(x)=ax^2+bx+c

Answers

Answer:

f(x) = - 4x² + 24x - 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = - 4(x - 3)² + 16 ← expand the factor using FOIL

     = - 4(x² - 6x + 9) + 16 ← distribute parenthesis by - 4

    = - 4x² + 24x - 36 + 16 ← collect like terms

    = - 4x² + 24x - 20
