Find a polynomial for the perimeter and for the area. There is a box with d+2 on top and on the right side there is a d. Need the perimeter, and the area.

so lets say a,b,c are the sides than a=b=d+2 and c=d+2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i wrote d+2 twice :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the box has area a*b*c
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and perimeter: 2ab+2ac+2bc
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I honestly don't know how to do it this is what the question was.

thank you
OpenStudy (anonymous):
hey can I ask you something?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you have to put d+2 instead of a,b and d instead of c
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so area will be (d+2)^2*d=d^3+4d^2+4d
OpenStudy (anonymous):
perimeter is 2(d+2)(d+2) +4d(d+2)

if I understood the question correctly, the phrasing is pretty bad
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Is that after simplifing the answer?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
which one?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
both the perimeter and the area have to be simpfly not factor.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2(d+2)(d+2) +4d(d+2)=2d^2+8d+8+4d^2+8d=6d^2+16d+8

thank you
can you do my other sample i have too?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
can you do it? I guess this is some kind of homework :-)
I can help but I wont solve it for you.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\sqrt[20]{(-9)^{20}}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok. sounds good to me.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is that 30sqrt(-9)^20 ?
not really visible

20sqrt(-9)^20
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh ok!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what is ur guess?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
6.088
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how did you get that? :)

i times -9 20 times and then i divied it by 20
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh I see, but here this is not multiplication or division
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what does 2^4 mean?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the 4 is the root of 2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
would be 8

nope, 2 to the power of 4 means that you take 2*2*2*2 (4times)=16
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so (-9)^20=-9*-9*-9..... (20 times)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
now what does \[\sqrt{?}\] mean?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it is the inverse operation so lets say \[\sqrt[3]{8}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that means the number that you multiply by itself 3 times and you will get 8

when you multiply -9 20 times you don't get a good answer
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you get a horrid number, really big one
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but now we have 20sqrt(-9)^20
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what is the number that you multiply by itself 20 times to get (-9)^20?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(-9)^20 means -9 multiplied by itself 20 times

i know what i get when u multiply -9. 20 times. u get 282042115992
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I guess you counted that in your head :-)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no used my phone.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you do not need the exact value to solve the problem
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the answer is:
what is the number that you multiply by itself 20 times to get (-9)^20?
(-9)^20 means -9 multiplied by itself 20 times
it is -9

but that is not the good answer as the correct one is 9
can you see why?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
by the way, I suggest not using calculator for studying maths, unless there is some horrid calculation.
