Less than 90° = acute
more than 90° = obtuse
equal to 180° = straight
more than 360° = reflex
Complete question :
A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio.The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74. What is the width of the border?
1) 2 1/2 feet
2) 3 feet
4) 5 feet
5) 8 1/2 feet
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for X in the perimeter equation :
2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74
Open the bracket
2[(12 + 2x + 15 + 2x)] = 74
2(27 + 4x) = 74
54 + 8x = 74
8x = 74 - 54
8x = 20
x = 20/8
x = 2.5
Hence, width fo border = 2.5
We have
so this is indeed a difference of squares. Factorizing would give
making the answer D.
We can further factor the first term here and write
but that's clearly out of the scope of this question.
Answer:
(0, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept of any function can generally be defined as: , since the y-intercept is when the function crosses the y-axis.
Anywhere on the y-axis, the x-value = 0, so the x value of the y-intercept will always be 0, and the y value is f(0), since x=0.
By looking at the graph it appears to intercept the y-axis at (0, 3) which should be the answer
