We are given that the area of a rectangle is 42 square meters. The formula for the area of a rectangle is:

A=wl

Where "w" is the width and "l" is the length. We are also told that the width is 5 meters longer than one-third of the length, this can be written mathematically as:

w=\frac{1}{3}l+5

Replacing in the formula for the area:

A=(\frac{1}{3}l+5)l

Now we use the distributive property:

A=\frac{1}{3}l^2+5l

Now we replace the value of the area:

42=\frac{1}{3}l^2+5l

Now we subtract 42 to both sides:

\frac{1}{3}l^2+5l-42=0

Now we can multiply both sides by 3:

l^2+15l-126=0

Now we factor this equation, we need two numbers which sum is 15 and their product is 126, we get:

(l+21)(l-6)=0

Now we set each factor to zero:

\begin{gathered} l+21=0 \\ l=-21 \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} l-6=0 \\ l=6 \end{gathered}

We take the positive value and therefore, the length of the rectangle is 6 meters.

To determine the width we use the relationship given by the problem:

w=\frac{1}{3}l+5

Replacing l = 6:

\begin{gathered} w=\frac{1}{3}(6)+5 \\ w=2+5 \\ w=7 \end{gathered}

The width is 7 meters.

According to the rational root theorem, which of the following are possible
White raven [17]

Given:

The polynomial function is

F(x)=4x^3-6x^2+9x+10

To find:

The possible roots of the given polynomial using rational root theorem.

Solution:

According to the rational root theorem, all the rational roots and in the form of \dfrac{p}{q}, where, p is a factor of constant and q is the factor of leading coefficient.

We have,

F(x)=4x^3-6x^2+9x+10

Here, the constant term is 10 and the leading coefficient is 4.

Factors of constant term 10 are ±1, ±2, ±5, ±10.

Factors of leading term 4 are ±1, ±2, ±4.

Using rational root theorem, the possible rational roots are

x=\pm 1+,\pm 2, \pm 5, \pm 10,\pm \dfrac{1}{2}, \pm \dfrac{5}{2}, \dfrac{1}{4}, \pm \dfrac{5}{4}

Therefore, the correct options are A, C, D, F.

If f(x)=-x^2+2x, find f(3)-7
igomit [66]

Answer:

f(3) just means to substitute 3 in for x.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(3) just means to substitute 3 in for x.  

f

(

3

)

=

−

2

Explanation:

f

(

3

)

2

+

7

According to the order of operations, first square the 3, which is 9.

f

)

=

−

9

+

7

The negative sign in front of the x squared is equivalent to multiplying by negative one.

Add -9 and 7 together, which is -2

So,

Tony Soprano has a collection of five-dollar and one-dollar bilis in his shirt pocket. He has 100 bills in all worth a total of
Karolina [17]

Answer:

A) x+y=100 \\ ..\    5x + y = 420

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Five-dollar bill  x

One-dollar bill  y

Total number of bills N=100

Worth of bills w=420

Generally the equation for Total number of bills  is mathematically given by

Since it is made up of five and one dollar bills

Therefore

  x+y=100

Hence the Equation for Total worth of bills is

 5x+y=420

The System of equations used is

A) x+y=100 \\ ..\    5x + y = 420
