Icame up w/different answer than previous person. just a mom trying to my

ellen separated the area of a poster into four equal sections. the perimeter of the poster is 120 inches. what is the area of each section of the poster?

**(the picture on my worksheet show 24 in for the length)
so the length is 24 on top and bottom
the width has to be 36 on each side)
24+24+36+36= 120 perimeter

my answer is 216
(a=lxw)
so 24x36=864
divided by 4 = 216 each section

8 2/3 is the answer

step-by-step explanation: just use a calculator

x =-.20752

step-by-step explanation:

4^(x+2)=12

4^(x+2)=12

take the log base 4 on each side

log 4 (4^(x+2) = log 4(12)

we know log b(a^y) = y log b (a)

(x+2) log 4(4) = log 4 (12)

x+2 = log 4 (12)

we know   logb c = loga c/loga b

we want to convert to base 10   so a = 10

by default, we do not write the 10   c = 4   and b = 10

log4 10 = log 12/log 4

log4 10 = log 12/ log 4

x+2 = log 12/ log 4

subtract 2 from each side

x +2 -2 = log 12/ log 4 -2

x = 1.79248125 -2

x =-.20752
