In a hand of cards, the ratio of black cards to red cards was 5 to 3. If the hand contained 15 black cards, which of the following proportions could be solved to find the number of red cards, r? (1) 15 5 3 r  (3) 3 15 8 r  (2) 5 15 3 r  (4) 15 5 8 r 

hello,

as we don't know if g(x) is continue,

answer b

f(x)=2x²-8x+1=2(x²-4x+4)+1-8=2(x-2)²-7

vertex is (2,-7) ( a minimum since coefficient of x² is > 0)

area of rectangle a is 2 times that of rectangle b that means 2x+x =   36cm^2

3x = 36cm ^2

x = 36/3

x= 12cm^2

and 2x = 24cm^2

now side of square = are divided by sides = 36/4 = 6cm

that means length of rectangle a and b is 6cm too

now for rectangle a,

l*b = area

= 6*y=24

y=24/6 = 4

therefore dimensions of rectangle a are- length = 6cm, breadth = 4cm

and for rectangle b, length = 6cm and breadth = 6-4 = 2cm.

hope this .

sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused try again

try again.
