Answer:

The dimensions of the bar are width = 4.68099 feet and length = 10.06198 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A chocolate bar has a rectangular shape, therefore it's area is given by the following formula:

area = width*length

In this case the length is 0.7 feet longer than twice the width, therefore:

length = 2*width + 0.7

Applying the second equation on the first one and using the data from the question we have:

47.1 = width*(2*width + 0.7)

47.1 = 2*width² + 0.7*width

2*width² + 0.7*width = 47.1

width² + 0.35*width = 23.55

width = \frac{-0.35 \pm \sqrt{0.35^2 -4*1*(-23.55)}}{2*1} = -0.175 \pm 4,85599

width = 4.68099 or width = -5.03099

Since the width can't be negative, it can only be 4.68099 feet.

length = 2*4.68099 + 0.7 = 10.06198 feet.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

10) The opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal. It means that

a + 15 = 3a + 11

3a - a = 15 - 11

2a = 4

a = 4/2 = 2

Also,

3b + 5 = b + 11

3b - b = 11 - 5

2b = 4

b = 4/2 = 2

11) The opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent and the adjacent angles are supplementary. This means that

2x + 11 + x - 5 = 180

3x + 6 = 180

3x = 180 - 6 = 174

x = 174/3 = 58

Therefore,

2x + 11 = 2×58 + 11 = 127 degrees

The opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent, therefore,

2y = 127

y = 127/2 = 63.5

12) The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. This means that each diagonal is divided equally at the midpoint. Therefore

3y - 5 = y + 5

3y - y = 5 + 5

2y = 10

y = 10/2 = 5

Also,

z + 9 = 2z + 7

2z - z = 9 - 7

z = 2

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

Graph B shows function f of x equals 4 multiplied by 3 to the power of negative x.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4(3)^{-x} is the value 4 times three raised to the negative x. Graph B is the best representation.

Answer:

972 x^16 y^24

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

(-2 x^3 y^7)^2 (3 x^2 y^2)^5

Multiply each exponent in -2 x^3 y^7 by 2:

(-2)^2 x^(2×3) y^(2×7) (3 x^2 y^2)^5

2×7 = 14:

(-2)^2 x^(2×3) y^14 (3 x^2 y^2)^5

2×3 = 6:

(-2)^2 x^6 y^14 (3 x^2 y^2)^5

(-2)^2 = 4:

4 x^6 y^14 (3 x^2 y^2)^5

Multiply each exponent in 3 x^2 y^2 by 5:

4 x^6 y^14×3^5 x^(5×2) y^(5×2)

5×2 = 10:

4×3^5 x^6 y^14 x^(5×2) y^10

5×2 = 10:

4×3^5 x^6 y^14 x^10 y^10

3^5 = 3×3^4 = 3 (3^2)^2:

4×3 (3^2)^2 x^6 y^14 x^10 y^10

3^2 = 9:

4×3×9^2 x^6 y^14 x^10 y^10

9^2 = 81:

4×3×81 x^6 y^14 x^10 y^10

3×81 = 243:

4×243 x^6 y^14 x^10 y^10

4 x^6 y^14×243 x^10 y^10 = 4 x^(6 + 10) y^(14 + 10)×243:

4×243 x^(6 + 10) y^(14 + 10)

14 + 10 = 24:

4×243 x^(6 + 10) y^24

6 + 10 = 16:

4×243 x^16 y^24

4×243 = 972:

Answer: 972 x^16 y^24
