Not much, other than that in polynomial long division you use variables and can have a variable and a number while in arithmetic long division you just have numbers

Answer:

The purpose of long division with polynomials is similar to long division with integers; to find whether the divisor is a factor of the dividend and, if not, the remainder after the divisor is factored into the dividend. The primary difference here is that you are now dividing with variables.

How to find the area of a triangle with a base of 32ft

Sergeu [11.5K]

Well to find the area of any figure you must first have knowledge on the formula. The formula for a triangle is 1/2 x b x h. Since you have the base 32, multiply that by 1/2 which will give you 16. Then you have to multiply 16 by the height. I'm not sure what the height is because you never gave me one but hopefully this helped! God bless :)

A rectangular solid with a square base has a volume of 4096 cubic inches - determine the dimensions that yield the minimum surfa

Bumek [7]

Answer:

side of base, a = 10.1 inches, height, h = 40.1 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of rectangular solid, V = 4096 cubic inches

Let the side of base is a and the height is h.

$V = a^2h\\\\4096 = a^2 h ..... (1)$

surface area of the solid

$S = 2a^2 + 4 ah \\\\S = 2a^2 + 4 \times a \times \frac{4096}{a^2} from (1)\\\S = 2a^2 + \frac{4096}{a}\\\\\frac{dS}{da}= 4 a - \frac{4096}{a^2}\\\\4 a - \frac{4096}{a^2} = 0 \\\\a^3 = 1024\\\\a =10.1 inches$

So, h = 40.2 inches

A water-tank has a base with dimensions 2 feet by 6 feet. If a cube with each side 1

Nadya [2.5K]

The increase of volume = volume of the cube = 1 cubic foot = 1728 cu ins
Area of the base = 12 sq ft = 12 * 144 = 1728 sq ins
The height of increase = 1728 / 1728 = 1 inch Answer

Two angles of a triangle have the same measure and the third one is 9 degrees greater than the measure of each of the other two.

The mistake is that that is an equilateral triangle with the same answer for each side which is 6 so AC=6 BC=6 BA=6 all sides equal 6
