The perimeter of a rectangle is the same as the perimeter of a square. If the area of this rectangle
is x^2 + 4x – 21 and the side lengths are integers,
find:
a. the perimeter of the rectangle
b. the area of the square

a. 20

b. 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let find the side lengths of the rectangle,

We can complete the square.

or

or

This means the perimeter of is

2 times -7 equal 14

2 times 3 equal 6

14+6=20.

The side lengths of the square is equal so each side length will measure 5.

geometric series converge the common ratio r has magnitude less than one.

which is equivalent to

for the example we need

|2-x| < 1

-1 < 2-x   and 2-x < 1

x < 3 and x > 1

we can write that

answer: 1 < x < 3

1a. common ratio r=250/25=10 > 1     diverges

1b.   r=50/100=1/2 converges

when these converge they converge to

where a is the first term.

answer: 200

1c. r=-1   so it's not the case that |r| < 1.     diverges

2a. x is the common ratio so we converge when |x|< 1

2b.   r=-10x / -2 = 5x.

we converge when

|5x| < 1

|x| < 1/5

2c.   r=3-2x

-1 < 3-2x and 3-2x < 1

-4 < -2x and 2 < 2x

x < 2 and 1 < x

1 < x < 2

2d. [/tex] r=-48x^3/12 = 4x^3[/tex]

|4x^3| < 1

|x^3| < \frac 1 4

|x| < 4^{-1/3}

12.5 feet
