The size of a TV is measured by its diagonal. You want to buy a TV that has a 32

ANEK [815]

The width of the TV is 27.9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Diagonal of TV = 32 inch

Height of TV = 15.7 inch

The diagonal makes the TV into a right triangle,

Therefore,

Diagonal = hypotenuse = c = 32 inch

Height = perpendicular = a = 15.7 inch

Width = base = b

Using pythagoras theorem

$a^2+b^2=c^2\\(15.7)^2+b^2=(32)^2\\246.49+b^2=1024\\b^2=1024-246.49\\b^2=777.51$

Taking square root on both sides

$\sqrt{b^2}=\sqrt{777.51}\\b=27.88$

Rounding off to nearest tenth

b = 27.9 inches

The width of the TV is 27.9 inches

Five workers dig a trench 5 yards long in 5 hours. How many workers are needed to dig a 100 yards long in 100 hours?

Pavlova-9 [17]

I think it would require 100 workers since 1 worker digs up 1 yard.

Hope this helps.

Find all roots: x^3 + 7x^2 + 12x = 0 Show all work and check your answer.

Aliun [14]

The three roots of x^3 + 7x^2 + 12x = 0 is 0,-3 and -4

Solution:

We have been given a cubic polynomial.

$x^{3}+7 x^{2}+12 x=0$

We need to find the three roots of the given polynomial.

Since it is a cubic polynomial, we can start by taking ‘x’ common from the equation.

This gives us:

$x^{3}+7 x^{2}+12 x=0$

$x\left(x^{2}+7 x+12\right)=0$ ----- eqn 1

So, from the above eq1 we can find the first root of the polynomial, which will be:

x = 0

Now, we need to find the remaining two roots which are taken from the remaining part of the equation which is:

$x^{2}+7 x+12=0$

we have to use the quadratic equation to solve this polynomial. The quadratic formula is:

$x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$

Now, a = 1, b = 7 and c = 12

By substituting the values of a,b and c in the quadratic equation we get;

$\begin{array}{l}{x=\frac{-7 \pm \sqrt{7^{2}-4 \times 1 \times 12}}{2 \times 1}} \\\\{x=\frac{-7 \pm \sqrt{1}}{2}}\end{array}$

Therefore, the two roots are:

$\begin{array}{l}{x=\frac{-7+\sqrt{1}}{2}=\frac{-7+1}{2}=\frac{-6}{2}} \\\\ {x=-3}\end{array}$

And,

$\begin{array}{c}{x=\frac{-7-\sqrt{1}}{2}} \\\\ {x=-4}\end{array}$

Hence, the three roots of the given cubic polynomial is 0, -3 and -4
