Set the height to h, and the width to w.

We know that wh=190 and h=2w-1.

Substituting 2w-1 for h, we have:

w(2w-1)=190

So:
2w^2-w-190=0

Factoring this equation, we get (2w+19)(w-10)=0.  The solutions to this equation are -9.5 and 10, but clearly the width must be positive, Substituting 10 for the width, we get 10*2-1=19 for the height.

Xavier starts the summer with $315 in his savings account. Since he will be working a lot this summer, he made plans to deposit
Alenkinab [10]

Answer: 8 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

He originally had $315 in his account. This figure increased to $955. It therefore increased by:

= 955 - 315

= $640

If he deposited $80 every week, the number of weeks it would take to deposit $640 is:

= 640/80

= 8 weeks

the cubic polynomial f(x) is such that the coefficient of x cube is -1 and the roots of the equation f(x)=0 are 1, 2 &amp; k.Giv
77julia77 [94]
The polynomial function is a cubic polynomial function with a general equation of y = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d. a is given to be -1. roots make y = 0

when x = 1
y = -1(1) + b + c + d = -1 +b+c+d = 0
when x = 2
y = -1*8 + 4b + 2c + d = -8 + 4b+c+d = 0
when x =k 
y = -k^3 + k^2b + kc + d = 0

when x = 3, y =8
8 = -27 + 9b + 3c + d

<span>b=7/3 , c=23/3 , d=−9
</span>k1<span> = 9.3556</span>
k2<span> = -2.71051</span>
k3<span> = 0.35491</span>
