Real-life Problems A rectangle garden is twice as long as it is wide. The area is 200m2. Find the dimensions of the rectangle garden. Let width be x Area = length x breadth 200 = 2xxx Length is 2x 200 = 2x2 x2= 100 x = 10 x = -10 and x must be positive ( We cannot get a negative length !!! ) Width is equal to 10m Length is equal to 20m
Real-life Problems The height in metres of a rocket fired vertically upwards is give by the formula : h = 176t – 16t2 (a) When will the rocket be at a height of 160 metres. 160 = 176t – 16t2 16t2 - 176t + 160 = 0 t2 - 11t + 10 = 0 t = 10 and t = 1 (t– 10)(t – 1) = 0 (b) Is it possible for the rocket to h = 188 metres. Since 188 = 176t -16t2 has no solution not possible.
