Question
A rectangle has a perimeter of 10 meters. Express the area A of the rectangle as function of the width x.
Answers
x = width
y = length
P = Perimeter
A = Area
Perimeter = 2 * width + 2 * length
P = 2 x + 2 y
P = 2 * ( x + y )
2 * ( x + y ) = 10 Divibe both sides by 2
x + y = 5
y = 5 - x
Area = width * length
A = x * y
A = x * ( 5 - x )
A = 5 x - x ^ 2
y = length
P = Perimeter
A = Area
Perimeter = 2 * width + 2 * length
P = 2 x + 2 y
P = 2 * ( x + y )
2 * ( x + y ) = 10 Divibe both sides by 2
x + y = 5
y = 5 - x
Area = width * length
A = x * y
A = x * ( 5 - x )
A = 5 x - x ^ 2
thank you so much. :)
