The polynomial x^2-18x+81 represents the area(in square feet) of a square courtyard. Write an expression for the perimeter of the courtyard.

4x - 36 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The area A of a  square whose sides are s units is given as

A = s * s

Given that the area A = x^2-18x+81, factorizing

A = x^2-9x-9x+81

A= x(x-9)-9(x-9)

A = (x-9)(x-9)

A = (x-9)^2

This means that the size of each side of the square  courtyard is x-9 feet long

Recall that the perimeter P of a square whose side is s long is given as

P = 4s hence since the side of the courtyard is x - 9 feet, the perimeter of the courtyard

P = 4(x-9)

= 4x - 36 feet

step-by-step explanation:

one of the most important purposes of surface treatment is to alter surface properties according to the requirement of specific applications. for example, hydrophobic coating has been utilized on windshield and eyeglasses. gold atom monolayer on substrate has become a popular surface bioconjugation strategy.
