I'm not sure if you're already given the length of the rectangle, but the width is either (x + 3) or (x + 15).

We can find this by factoring x² + 18x + 45, as the area of a rectangle is found by multiplying the length and width together, so if we factor this expression we can find what was multiplied together.

Factoring x² + 18x + 45, we get (x + 3)(x + 15), which then tells us the two sides of the rectangle. Again, I'm not sure if you were already told the length, but if you were then the width is the other side. For example, if you were told the length was (x + 3), then the width would be (x + 15).

I hope this helps!

Linear model function

Using equations of linear model function, the number of hours Jeremy wants to skate is calculated as 3.

<h3>How to Write the Equation of a Linear Model Function?</h3>

The equation that can represent a linear model function is, y = mx + b, where m is the unit rate and b is the initial value.

Equation for Rink A:

Unit rate (m) = (35 - 19)/(5 - 1) = 16/4 = 4

Substitute (x, y) = (1, 19) and m = 4 into y = mx + b to find b:

19 = 4(1) + b

19 - 4 = b

b = 15

Substitute m = 4 and b = 15 into y = mx + b:

y = 4x + 15 [equation for Rink A]

Equation for Rink B:

Unit rate (m) = (39 - 15)/(5 - 1) = 24/4 = 6

Substitute (x, y) = (1, 15) and m = 6 into y = mx + b to find b:

15 = 6(1) + b

15 - 6 = b

b = 9

Substitute m = 6 and b = 9 into y = mx + b:

y = 6x + 9 [equation for Rink B]

To find how many hours (x) both would cost the same (y), make both equation equal to each other

4x + 15 = 6x + 9

4x - 6x = -15 + 9

-2x = -6

x = 3

The hours Jeremy wants to skate is 3.

Pls help show work please

Aloiza [94]

Each bracelet is $5, this can be represented as 5b. (Where b is number of bracelets)

Each necklace is $8, this can be represented as 8n. (Where n is number of necklaces)

We know that the total money raised needs to be at least $100, but it can also be more than that.

So we know that 8n+5b will be greater than or equal too 100.

8n+5b ≥ 100

Simplify 30x-140-(x-4)

balu736 [363]

Answer:

x = 4.7

Step-by-step explanation:

30x - 140 -(x - 4)

Multiply the -1 into (x - 4)

30x - 140 - x + 4

Add/subtract

29x - 136 = 0

+136

$29x = 136$

$\frac{29x}{29} = \frac{136}{29}$

$x = 4.689655172413793$

The diameter of a sphere with a volume of 12,348 cubic ft is ___ ft.

aniked [119]

Answer:

108.62ft

Step-by-step explanation:

12348=⁴/3×3.14×r²

r²=12348×¾÷3.14

r²=2,949.36

r=squareroot of 2,949.36

r=54.308

d=2r

d=54.308×2

d=108.616
