A rectangle with area 36 square inches has a length that is 3 less than 3 times the width. Find the length and the width of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

length = 9 in ; width = 4 in

Step-by-step explanation:

1) formula of the area of a rectangle

A = base x width

2) write an equation with the given informations:

w x (3w-3) = 36

3) solve the equation

-  multiply W by 3w and -3

3w^2 -3w = 36

- divide the two members by 3

w^2 - w = 12

- add up -12 at the two members

w^2-w -12 = 12 -12

w^2 - w - 12 = 0

- find two numbers whose sum is -1 and whose product is -12 and factorise the equation

(w-4)(w+3) = 0

- find the two solutions

w-4 = 0

w = 4

w+3 = 0

w = -3

4)remember that a length can’t be negative.

w = 4 is the only solution

5) find the length

4x3 - 3 = 9

Find:

Surface area of cuboid

Computation:

Surface area of cuboid = 2[lb + bh + hl]

Surface area of cuboid = 2[(5)(3) + (3)(3) + (3)(5)]

Surface area of cuboid = 2[15 + 9 + 15]

Answer:

C) Line A does not intersect Line B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line A passes through (6 ,-30) & (-2 , 10)

Line B passes through (-4 , 28) & (2 , -2)

Find the slopes for each line. To find the slope, use the slope formula:

slope (m) = [tex]\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

Line 1:

Let:

[tex](x_1 , y_1) = (6 , -30) \\(x_2 , y_2) = (-2 , 10)[/tex]

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

m = [tex]\frac{10 - (-30)}{-2 - 6} = \frac{10 + 30}{-8} = \frac{40}{-8} = \frac{-5}{1}[/tex]

Line 2:

Let:

[tex](x_1 , y_1) = (2 , -2)\\(x_2 , y_2) = (-4 , 28)[/tex]

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

m = [tex]\frac{28 - (-2)}{-4 - (2)} = \frac{28 + 2}{-4 - 2} = \frac{30}{-6} = \frac{-5}{1}[/tex]

The two lines share the same slope, therefore, they are parallel to each other. This means that they do not intersect at any given point.

The revenue from a company’s factory in Scranton, PA is given by 2n2-15n+23, where n represents the number of paper goods produced in the factory. The cost in dollars of producing paper goods is given by n2+3n+23. Write and simplify a polynomial expression for the profit from making and selling n paper goods.

Answers

Answer:

The polynomial expression for the profit from making and selling 'n' paper goods, is;

n × (n - 18)

Step-by-step explanation:

The revenue, 'R', and the cost, 'C', from the company's Scranton, PA factory are as follows;

R = 2·n² - 15·n + 23

C = n² + 3·n + 23

The profit, 'P', is the revenue, 'R', in excess of the cost, 'C', therefore;

The profit, P = R - C

By substituting the polynomials representing 'R', and 'C', we have;

P = 2·n² - 15·n + 23 - (n² + 3·n + 23)

∴ P = 2·n² - n² - 15·n - 3·n + 23 - 23

P = n² - 18·n = n·(n - 18)

P = n·(n - 18)

The polynomial expression for the profit from making and selling 'n' paper goods, is P = n·(n - 18).

Sammy counts the number of people in one section of the school auditorium. He counts 18 female students, 16 male students, and 6 teachers. There are 720 people in the auditorium. Consider the probability of selecting one person at random from the auditorium

Answers

Correct Question:

He counts 18 female students, 16 male students, and 6 teachers. There are

720 people in the auditorium. Consider the probability of selecting one person

at random from the auditorium.

Which of these statements are true?

Choose all that apply.

A:  The probability of selecting a teacher is 6%.

B : The probability of selecting a student is 85%.

C : The probability of selecting a male student is 32%.

D : The probability of selecting a female student is 45%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option B  and D are correct because

The total number of people in one cross section = 18 + 16 + 6 = 40.

A = The probability of selecting a teacher is = (6/40)x100 = 15 % not equal to 6 %

B = The probability of selecting a male student is = (34/40)x100 = 85%

C = The probability of selecting a male student is = (16/40)x100 = 40 % not equal to 32 %

D : The probability of selecting a female student is = (18/40)x100= 45%

Hello, can someone please assist me with this problem.

So for this problem you need to find the length of a side of the square. To do this you can use Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the right triangle with the side of the square as it’s hypotenuse.
The Pythagorean theorem is:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a = 1 and b = 3
1^2 + 3^2 = c^2
10 = c^2
square root of 10 = c

Now that we know the length of the side, we can find the area of the square. Area of a square = side^2, so:
Area = (square root of 10)^2 = 10

The area of the square is 10!

An element with a mass of 700 grams decays by 6.1% per minute. To the nearest
tenth of a minute, how long will it be until there are 220 grams of the element
remaining?

Answers

Answer:

11.2 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

If the element decreases by 6.1, every minute, it means that the mass lost every minute = 0.061 x 700g = 42.7g

The mass remaining after a minute = 657.30g

The equation that can be used to solve this question is :

700 - 42.7m = 220

m = minutes

Collect like terms

700 - 220 = 42.7m

480 = 42.7m

divide both sides of the equation by 42.7

m = 11.241218 minutes

the tenth is the first number after the decimal place. To convert to the nearest tenth, look at the number after the tenth (the hundredth). If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the tenth figure. If this is not the case, add zero

Here, the hundredth is less than 5, so zero would be added to 2. the answer is 11.2 minutes

Answers

the answer is 30°

EXPLAINATION:

since the angle is a right angle triangle one of it's angles is 90°, and all the angles of a triangle always add up to 180°

so, 90° + 60° + x = 180

150° + x = 180°

so x = 180° - 150° = 30°

hence, the other acute angle is 30°.
