The area of a rectangle is represented by the function A = n^3 - 6n^2 - 8n + 48. What is the perimeter of the rectangle? Describe how you found your answer.

P = 2(n - 6) + 2(n^2 - 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Remembering that Area = Length times Width, we factor the given function

A = n^3 - 6n^2 - 8n + 48 in the expectation that the resulting factors represent the length and width respectively:

A = n^3 - 6n^2 - 8n + 48 factors as follows:

A = n^2(n - 6) - 8(n - 6), or A = (n - 6)(n^2 - 8)

We can label '(n - 6)' "width" and '(n^2 - 8'

length.

Then the perimeter, P, of the rectangle is P = 2(length) + 2(width). which works out here to:

P = 2(n - 6) + 2(n^2 - 8)

whole numbers.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the average monthly rainfall (in millimeters) model r(m) for the years 1900-2009 as a function of the month number m.

as we can see m is taken for the number of months for years 1900-2009.

we know that number of months can't be a negative number or decimal number or a fraction.

so, the number of months could be only positive whole numbers.

therefore, whole numbers is more appropriate for the domain of r.
