Since 
is the square of x and 6x is twice the product between x and 3, the second square must be 3 squared, i.e. 9.
So, if we think of 15 as 9+6, we have
Which is the required vertex form. This form tells us imediately that the vertex is the point (3,6).
Since the leading coefficient is 1, the parabola is facing upwards (it's U shaped), so the vertex is a minimum.
<span>Given data shows that 1/3 time less time for fans to exit a game as it does for them to enter and find their seats.
Ingress for the stadium = 3,000 fans per hour
Ingress rate = (1 - 1/3) x Egress rate = 2/3 Egress rate
Egress rate = 3/2 ingress rate = 3/2 x 6,000 = 9,000 fans per hour</span>
"4600" (and any subsequent words) was ignored because we limit queries to 32 words.
Okay, well we start out with the equation P=66, where P is perimeter. You should create equations using variables to explain each piece of information you are given. Follow the equations below and see if you can understand how to do another one like this. In this problem, l is length and w is width.
P = 66 The perimeter is equal to 66
l = 3 + w The length of one side is 3 more than the width
2l + 2w = 66 A rectangle's perimeter is calculated by adding the lengths and widths
2(3 + w) + 2w = 66 Use what you know about length from step 2 to replace the variable in step 3
6 + 2w + 2w = 66 Multiply
6 + 4w = 66 Add like terms
4w = 60 Subtract
w = 15 Divide
l = 3 + w Remember step 2?
l = 3 + 15 Replace the variable using your value for w
l = 18 Add
And you're done! Always check your work. It helps to create a picture of a rectangle while you're doing these problems as well. As you get used to these problems more and more, you can show more or less work than I've shown, but try to stay true to what the teacher asks of you. Good luck!
