Question

The width of Maya’s poster is 2 inches shorter than the length. The graph models the possible area (y) of Maya’s poster determined by its length (x).

Which describes what the point (2, 0) represents?


The area is 2 if the length is 0.

The area is 0 if the length is 2.

The length is 2 if the width is 0.

The width is 0 if the length is 2.

Answer 1

Answer: B. The area is 0 if the length is 2.

Answer 2

Width = Length - 2
Area = L x W
y = x * ( x - 2 )
If the point is ( 2, 0 ): x = 2, y = 0
y = 2 * ( 2 - 2 ) = 2 * 0 = 0 ( area )
Answer:
B ) The area is 0 if the length is 2.
