2. A
school
playground
is
rectangular
and
has
a
length
of
50
m
and
S a fe ty
Z one
a
width
of
30
m
as
shown.
A
safety
zone
of
uniform
width
surrounds
the
playground.
If
the
area
of
the
safety
zone
equals
the
area
of
the
d
playground,
what
is
the
width
of
the
safety
zone,
to
2

3. A
square
is
transformed
into
a
rectangle
by
increasing
the
length
by
8
m
and
the
width
by
5
m.
If
the
area
of
the
resulting
rectangle
is
108
m2,
algebraically
determine
the
length
of
each
side
of
the
original
square.
4. Mario
wants
to
install
a
wooden
deck
around
a
rectangular
swimming
pool.
The
function
𝐶 𝑤 = 120𝑤 ! + 1800𝑤,
where
𝑤
is
the
width
in
meters
and
𝐶 𝑤
is
the
cost
in
dollars.
How
wide
will
the
deck
be
if
he
has
$4080
to
spend?
5. A
gardener
wants
to
fence
three
sides
of
the
yard
in
front
of
her
house.
She
bought
60m
of
fence
and
wants
an
area
of
about
400m2.
The
quadratic
equation
𝐴 𝑤 = 60𝑤 − 2𝑤 ! ,
where
𝑤
is
the
width
in
meters
and
𝐴 𝑤
is
the
area
in
squared
meters,
given
the
area
can
be
enclosed.
Determine
the
dimensions
that
will
give
the
desired
area.
6. The
profit
of
a
shoe
company
is
modeled
by
the
quadratic
function
𝑃 𝑥 = −5(𝑥 − 4)! + 45,
where
𝑥
is
the
number
of
pairs
of
shoes
produced,
in
thousands,
and
𝑃 𝑥
is
the
profit,
in
thousands
of
dollars.
How
many
thousands
of
pairs
of
shows
will
the
company
need
to
sell
to
earn
a
profit?
