Represent the given condition using a single variable, x. The length and width of a rectangle whose length is 7 centimeters more than its width.

width = x length = x+7

Represent the given condition using a single variable, x. Three Consecutive integers. X is the first or smallest integer. The expression for the next consecutive integer in terms of x is one greater than x. X+1 The third consecutive integer would be one greater than the integer X+1+1=x+2 Therefore, three consecutive integers where the variable x is an integer are x, x+1 and x+2

Represent the given condition using a single variable, x. The base and height of a triangle whose height is two more than three times its base.

X If three times the base is 3x then two more than three times the base is 3x+2 Base = x Height = 3x+2

The area of the square is 49 square units. Find the length of its sides. 49=x^2 x=7,-7 (Since the length of a side cant be negative -7, the answer is 7.) The length of a side is 7. The area of the square is 100 square units. Find the length of its sides. 100=x^2 x=10,-10 (Since the length of a side cant be negative -10, the answer is 10.) The length of a side is 10

An object is thrown upward from the top of a 208 foot building with an initial velocity of 192 feet per second. The height h of the object after t seconds is given by the quadratic equation h=-16t^2+192t+208. When will the object hit the ground? To find out how long it takes the object to hit the ground, find the value of t when the height is h=0. 0=-16t^2+192t+208 T=13,-1 Since the time t cannot be negative, the answer is 13

The equation D=1/2n(n-3) gives the number of diagonals D for a polygon with n sides. Use this equation to find the number of diagonals for a polygon with 20 sides. Substitute 20 for n into the given formula: D=1/2n(n-3) D =1/2 20(20-3) D =170 Therefore, the polygon with 20 sides has 170 diagonals. EXAMPLE: The equation D=1/2n(n-3) gives the number of diagonals D for a polygon with n sides. Use this equation to find the number of diagonals for a polygon with 9 sides. Substitute 9 for n into the given formula: D=1/2n(n-3) D =1/2 9(9-3) D =27

A 34 inch TV is advertised in the local newspaper. If 34 inches is the measure of the diagonal of the picture tube, find the measure of each side of the picture tube. Dont know this one

The graph to the right shows the daily low temperatures for one week in a city. Notice that the shape of the temperature graph is similar to the curve drawn. In fact, this graph can be modeled by the quadratic function F(x)=3x^2-18x+77, where f(x) is the temperature in degrees Farenheit and x is the number of days from Sunday. Use the quadratic function to approximate the temp on Wednesday. Answer: Count how many days from Sunday is the day in question. Since Wednessday is 3 days from Sunday youd replace x with 3 in the equation. Evaluate the function

The Soules live on a corner lot. Often, children cut across their lot to save walking distance.

X+35

85 ft

x Use the pythagorean theorum that says In a right angled triangle: the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. X^2+(x+35)^2=85^2 X= -75, 40

Since it cant be negative it has to be 40. If x = 40 then the x+35 side must be 75 feet. 40 + 75 feet equals 115 feet if the children to walk AROUND the block. 115-85=30 feet of walking distance saved.

X+7

17 ft

x Use the pythagorean theorum that says In a right angled triangle: the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. X^2+(x+7)^2=17^2 X= -15,8 Since it cant be negative it has to be 8. If x = 8 then the x+7 side must be 15 feet. 8 + 15 feet equals 23 feet if the children to walk AROUND the block. 23-17=6 feet of walking distance saved.

To mix weed killer with water correctly, it is necessary to mix 8 teaspoons of weed killer with 2 gallons of water. Find how many gallons of water are needed to mix with the entire box if it contains 36 teaspoons of weed killer. : Let x = amt of water for 36 tsp of weed killer : Use a ratio equation = 8x = 2*36 8x = 72 x= x = 9 gallons of water

EXAMPLE: To mix weed killer with water correctly, it is necessary to mix 20 teaspoons of weed killer with 5 gallons of water. Find how many gallons of water are needed to mix with the entire box if it contains 32 teaspoons of weed killer. : Let x = amt of water for 32 tsp of weed killer : Use a ratio equation = x/5 = 32/20 x = 8 gallons of water
