Answer:
336 feet²
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have a rectangle that is 30 by 20 feet, that means the area of that rectangle would be 20 × 30 feet squared, which is 600 ft².
If there is a 3 feet sidewalk surrounding it, that means that the end of the sidewalk will extend 3 feet extra around each side of plot. Since there are two ends to one side, that means an extra six feet is added on to each dimension. Therefore, 36 × 26 are the dimensions of the sidewalk+plot. 36 × 26 = 936 ft².
To find the area of the sidewalk itself, we subtract 600 ft² from 936 ft². This gets us with 336 ft².
Hope this helped!
<h3>Answer:</h3>
±12 (two answers)
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Suppose one root is <em>a</em>. Then the other root will be -3<em>a</em>. The product of the two roots is the ratio of the constant coefficient to the leading coefficient:
(<em>a</em>)(-3<em>a</em>) = -27/4
<em>a</em>² = -27/(4·(-3)) = 9/4
<em>a</em> = ±√(9/4) = ±3/2
Then the other root is
-3<em>a</em> = -3(±3/2) = ±9/2 . . . . . . the roots will have opposite signs
We know the opposite of the sum of these roots will be the ratio of the linear term coefficient to the leading coefficient: b/4, so ...
-(a + (-3a)) = b/4
2a = b/4
b = 8a = 8·(±3/2)
b = ±12
_____
<em>Check</em>
For b = 12, the equation factors as ...
4x² +12x -27 = (2x -3)(2x +9) = 0
It has roots -9/2 and +3/2, the ratio of which is -3.
For b = -12, the equation factors as ...
4x² -12x -27 = (2x +3)(2x -9) = 0
It has roots 9/2 and -3/2, the ratio of which is -3.
