Afootball player weighed 170 2/3 pounds in may. during the summer, he gained 25 5/12 pounds. during the first week of fall practice, he lost 10 1/4 pounds, and during the second week he lost another 3 1/2 pounds. how much did he weigh at that point? a: 182 1/3 lb b: 181 1/2 lb c: 182 5/12 lb d: 183 2/3 lb ?

Based on the situation in part a, the width of a rectangular garden is x feet, and its length is 5 feet more than twice its width. the right side of the equation, g(x) = 2x2 − 13x + 6, can be factored to g(x) = (2x − 1)(x − 6). this function could represent an inner region of the garden from the first equation, such as a vegetable garden with a border around it. the length of this inner garden would be 2x − 1 feet, and the width would be x − 6, which would leave a 3-foot border around the garden. part d what is the value of g(8) for the function g(x) in part c? what does this value mean in the context of the situation you described in part c?
