Hi
The sum of the length l and the width w of a rectangular area is 260 meters.
(a) Write w as a function of l.
w = 260 - l
(b) Write the area A as a function of l.
A = l(260-l)
(c) Find the dimensions that produce the greatest area. (When rectangle is a Square)
l = 130 m
w = 130 m

Trigonometry-basics/623709: The distance s that an object falls due to gravity varies jointly as the acceleration g due to gravity and the square of the time t of fall. The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 0.172 that on earth. If a rock falls for 2 seconds on earth, how many seconds would be required for the rock to fall an equal distance on the moon?
I am looking more for an explanation of how to do the problem rather than just an answer. Thank You!

Hi
The distance s that an object falls due to gravity varies jointly as the
acceleration g due to gravity and the square of the time t of fall
s = gt^2
rock falls for 2 seconds on earth
s = 4g
gravity on the moon is 0.172 that on earth
how many seconds would be required for the rock to fall an equal distance on the moon?
4g = .172gt^2
4/.172 = t^2
4.8sec = t (rounded to one decimal point)

Hi, ·
The factor theorem states that a polynomial f(x) has a factor (x − k) if and only if f(k) = 0
y = (x+3)(x-3)(x-4), zeros are x = -3,3,4
y = (x+3)(x-3)(x-4) = (x^2-9)(x-4)= x^3 -4x^2-9x + 36 y-intercept is (0,36)

Hi,
Find all the zeros of the equation:
-4x^4 - 44x^2 + 3600 = 0 | Let X = x^2
-4X^2 - 44X + 3600 = 0
X^2 + 11X - 900 = 0

X = 25 OR X = -36
x^2 = 25, x= ±5 Zeros
x^2 = -36 x = ±6i

Exponents/623648: Not sure if this is right place to ask this question:
The problem had a step in it:
First rewrite the value of f(x) in exponential form, with base 8.
f(x)=1/512 = 1/8^3 = 8^-3
I understand that 8^3 equals 1/512, just not what steps they took. Is there an easy way to figure out the exponential form of a number? Also, why did the exponent become negative at the end step?
Thank you.
