QUADRATIC FUNCTIONS (WORD PROBLEMS) 1. The area of a rectangle is 560 square inches. The length is 3 more than twice the width. Find the length and the width. Representation: Let L be the length and let W be the width. The length is 3 more than twice the width‚ so The area is 560‚ so Equation: Plug in and solve for W: Solution: Use the Quadratic Formula: Since the width can’t be negative‚ I get . The length is 2. The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 4 times the smallest side. The third

Cost Formula Word Problem The cost formula for a manufacturer’s product is C = 5000 + 2 x ‚ where C is the cost (in dollars) and x is the number of units manufactured. (a) If no units are produced‚ what is the cost? (b) If the manufacturer produces 3000 units‚ what is the cost? (c) If the manufacturer has spent $16‚000 on production‚ how many units were manufactured? Answer these questions by substituting the numbers into the formula. (a) If no units are produced‚ then x = 0‚ and C = 5000 +

Linear Functions There are three different ways to write linear functions. They are slope-intercept‚ point-slope‚ and standard form. There are certain situations where it is better to use one way than another to solve a problem. It is important to understand and comprehend the mechanics of these three forms so that you know what form to use when solving a problem. The first form‚ point-slope‚ is written as y-y1=m(x-x1). M is the slope and x1 and y1 correspond to a point on the line. It’s good to
