a rectangle has an area that is represented by 9x²-4. the length of the rectangle is 3x-2. what is the width?

Mathematics

PSYCHO15rus [73]2 years ago
6 0

Step-by-step explanation:

the area is

length × width

(3x - 2) × width = 9x² - 4

to find width we could do a real polynomial division or simply recognize the fact that

(a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²

and we see that in our area calculation we are missing the (a + b) factor.

so, width = (3x + 2)

but if you want the division :

9x² - 4 : 3x - 2 = 3x + 2

- 9x² - 6x

-----------------

0 6x - 4

- 6x - 4

----------------------

0 0

again, width = (3x + 2)

What is the answer of 7 copies of the sum of 8/5 + 4
kotykmax [81]
To solve (8/5 + 4)7, you first have to add 8/5+4.  But you cannot simply add the too because they have to be in a common denominator 'form'.  To do that, we find a common denominator which is 5.  We then multiply 4/1 by 5.
8/5 + 4/1= 8/5 +20/5.
Now you can solve; 8+20= 28.  You leave the denominator as 5.
You get 28/5 and now you have to multiply it by 7/1.  Another of saying 28/5 is 5 3/5.  So 5 3/5 x 7/1= 39 2/10 (final answer)

If P(A) = 0.2, P(B) = 0.2, and P(A ∪ B) = 0.4, then P(A ∩ B) = _______.
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

P(A ∩ B) = 0.

a) NO

b) YES

Step-by-step explanation:

Thinking about this through Venn diagrams we can sort of understand that:

if P(A) = 0.2 and P(B) = 0.2, and P(A∪B) = 0.4.

there's no overlapping between P(A) and P(B).

(If there was overlapping then P(A∪B) < 0.4, since you'd be excluding the overlapped part from getting counted twice.

Think of it in terms of calculating areas circles A and B, if the circles were disjoint, then the sum of the areas A and B would be 0.2+0.2. But if the circles were overlapping then the sum of the areas would be 0.2+0.2-P(A ∩ B), where P(A ∩ B) is the overlapping part)

since there's no overlapping P(A ∩ B) = 0.

a) NO

events A and B are only independent when P(A ∩ B) > 0 (or overlapping)

b) YES

events A and B are mutually exclusive when P(A ∩ B) = 0 (or disjoint)
