Answer: Choice B) One-sixth

In other words, the fraction 1/6

===========================================================

Explanation:

The base, aka horizontal component, is 6 units long. Count out the spaces from -5 to 1 to get a result of 6.

Or you could subtract and use absolute value in either of these two ways

  • |A - B| = |-5 - 1| = |-6| = 6
  • |B - A| = |1 - (-5)| = |1 + 5| = |6| = 6

Where A = -5 and B = 1 are the endpoints mentioned. Absolute value is used to ensure the result of the subtraction isn't negative. Negative distance on a number line doesn't make sense.

----------

However you determine the base, we'll multiply it by the unknown height which we'll call h. This leads to the area of the rectangle. The area is 6h.

Rule: The area under a probability density curve must <u>always</u> be 1.

So the area 6h must be 1 which helps us see that...

6h = 1

h = 1/6

Divide both sides by 6 to isolate h fully.

Jessica made plans to weave a rectangular jute rug, but she needs to update the plans to change the dimensions of the rug. The o
loris [4]

Answer:

Length of rug in original design is 36 inches .

Width of rug in original design is  60 inches .

The problem says that the new design has length 3x inches longer  and x inches wider than the rug in the original plans .

New length of rug would be 3x inches longer than the original design  which is 36 inches .

Thus new length of rug is  ( 3x + 36  )  inches .

New width of rug is x inches wider than the rug in the original plans which is 60 inches in original plan .

Thus new width of rug is   ( x + 60   )   inches .

Area of rectangle is  Length * Width  

Area of new rug is   ( 3x + 36 ) * ( x + 60 )

We distribute the terms using FOIL method .

( 3x + 36 ) *( x + 60 )  = 3x ( x + 60 ) + 36 ( x + 60 )

                                    =  3x² +  3x * 60  + 36 x  + 36 * 60

                                    =   3x²  + 180 x + 36 x + 2160

    Combining like terms ,  3x² + 216 x + 2160

Thus the area of the rug with the new dimensions is

( 3x + 36) ( x + 60 )  = 3x² + 216 x + 2160 .

Factor the expression below.
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

(x + 8) (x - 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

To factorise the expression follow the steps:

Think the factorising means you want like:-

  ( x + _ ) ( x + _ )

Now, add the numbers to get 0 & multiple together to get -64

 -64 = 8 x -8

 8 + -8 = 0

Now fill the numbers in the factorising mean which will give you,

( x + _ ) ( x + _ ) --> ( x + <u>8</u> ) ( x - <u>8</u> )

Therefore, the answer will be: ( x + <u>8</u> ) ( x - <u>8</u> )

I hope this will help you :)

Solve for x: 1 &lt; X + 3 &lt; 4
sveta [45]

Answer:

for soln 1: X < -2; for soln 2: X < 1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is two set problem involving inequality. Therefore, you have to solve for each side of the inequality to know the values of X for each sides.

1 < X + 3 < 4

Soln 1. solve for the first side of the inequality

1 < X + 3

1 - 3 < X

-2 < X

X > -2

soln 2: solve for the second side of the inequality

X +3 < 4

X < 4 - 3

X < 1

Therefore, X > -2; X < 1
