An architect is designing square windows with an area of(x2 + 16x +64) ft?. The dimensions of the windows are of the form ax +b, where a and b are whole numbers.
Part 1 out of 2
Find an expression for the perimeter of the windows.
The perimeter of the square is represented by
(x+
6 ft.

A) The dimensions are (x+10) by (x+10).

B) The perimeter is given by 4x+40.

C) The perimeter when x is 4 is 56.

The quadratic can be factored by finding factors of c, the constant, that sum to b, the coefficient of x.  Our c is 100 and our b is 20; we want factors of 100 that sum to 20.  10*10=100 and 10+10=20, so those are what we need.  This gives us (x+10)(x+10 for the factored form.  

Since the dimensions are all (x+10), and there are 4 sides, the perimeter is given by 4(x+10).  Using the distributive property we have 4*x+4*10=4x+40.

To find the perimeter when x=4, substitute 4 into our perimeter expression:

4*4+40=16+40=56.

A) The dimensions are (x+10) by (x+10).

B) The perimeter is given by 4x+40.

C) The perimeter when x is 4 is 56.

Step-by-step explanation:

I filled two notebook papers to solve this

step-by-step explanation:

the true statements are:

r = set of real numbers

n = set of natural numbers, 1,2,

w = n u{0} = {0,1,}
