The dimensions of Rectangle A are 6 times the dimensions of Rectangle B. How do the areas of the Rectangles compare

1 answer:

3 0

The area of Rectangle A will always be 36 times the area of Rectangle B.

For example:
If Rectangle B has length 1 and width 2, Rectangle A will have length 6 and width 12. By multiplying, Rectangle A will have an area of 72 and B 2. Divide the two numbers and you will have 36.

Feel free to try with other numbers if you want to test it out.

P(x) = x + 1x² – 34x + 343<br> d(x)= x + 9

Feliz [49]

Answer:

$x=\frac{9}{d-1},\:P=\frac{-297d+378}{\left(d-1\right)^2}+343$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us start by isolating x for dx = x + 9.

dx - x = x + 9 - x > dx - x = 9.

Factor out the common term of x > x(d - 1) = 9.

Now divide both sides by d - 1 > $\frac{x\left(d-1\right)}{d-1}=\frac{9}{d-1};\quad \:d\ne \:1$ . Go ahead and simplify.

$x=\frac{9}{d-1};\quad \:d\ne \:1$ .

Now, $\mathrm{For\:}P=x+1x^2-34x+343, \mathrm{Subsititute\:}x=\frac{9}{d-1}$ .

$P=\frac{9}{d-1}+1\cdot \left(\frac{9}{d-1}\right)^2-34\cdot \frac{9}{d-1}+343$ .

Group the like terms... $1\cdot \left(\frac{9}{d-1}\right)^2+\frac{9}{d-1}-34\cdot \frac{9}{d-1}+343$ .

$\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:\frac{9}{d-1}-34\cdot \frac{9}{d-1}=-33\cdot \frac{9}{d-1}$ > $1\cdot \left(\frac{9}{d-1}\right)^2-33\cdot \frac{9}{d-1}+343$ .

Now for $1\cdot \left(\frac{9}{d-1}\right)^2 > \mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}: \left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^c=\frac{a^c}{b^c} > \frac{9^2}{\left(d-1\right)^2} = 1\cdot \frac{9^2}{\left(d-1\right)^2}$ .

$\mathrm{Multiply:}\:1\cdot \frac{9^2}{\left(d-1\right)^2}=\frac{9^2}{\left(d-1\right)^2}$ .

Now for $33\cdot \frac{9}{d-1} > \mathrm{Multiply\:fractions}: \:a\cdot \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\:\cdot \:b}{c} > \frac{9\cdot \:33}{d-1} > \frac{297}{d-1}$ .

Thus we then get $\frac{9^2}{\left(d-1\right)^2}-\frac{297}{d-1}+343$ .

Now we want to combine fractions. $\frac{9^2}{\left(d-1\right)^2}-\frac{297}{d-1}$ .

$\mathrm{Compute\:an\:expression\:comprised\:of\:factors\:that\:appear\:either\:in\:}\left(d-1\right)^2\mathrm{\:or\:}d-1 > This\: is \:the\:LCM > \left(d-1\right)^2$

$\mathrm{For}\:\frac{297}{d-1}:\:\mathrm{multiply\:the\:denominator\:and\:numerator\:by\:}\:d-1 > \frac{297}{d-1}=\frac{297\left(d-1\right)}{\left(d-1\right)\left(d-1\right)}=\frac{297\left(d-1\right)}{\left(d-1\right)^2}$

$\frac{9^2}{\left(d-1\right)^2}-\frac{297\left(d-1\right)}{\left(d-1\right)^2} > \mathrm{Since\:the\:denominators\:are\:equal,\:combine\:the\:fractions}> \frac{a}{c}\pm \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\pm \:b}{c}$

$\frac{9^2-297\left(d-1\right)}{\left(d-1\right)^2} > 9^2=81 > \frac{81-297\left(d-1\right)}{\left(d-1\right)^2}$ .

Expand $81-297\left(d-1\right) > -297\left(d-1\right) > \mathrm{Apply\:the\:distributive\:law}: \:a\left(b-c\right)=ab-ac$ .

$-297d-\left(-297\right)\cdot \:1 > \mathrm{Apply\:minus-plus\:rules} > -\left(-a\right)=a > -297d+297\cdot \:1$ .

$\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:297\cdot \:1=297 > -297d+297 > 81-297d+297 > \mathrm{Add\:the\:numbers:}\:81+297=378 > -297d+378 > \frac{-297d+378}{\left(d-1\right)^2}$

Therefore $P=\frac{-297d+378}{\left(d-1\right)^2}+343$ .

Hope this helps!

Dr. Potter provides vaccinations against polio and measles. Each polio vaccination consists of 444 doses, and each measles vacci

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

37 polio vaccinations and 23 measles vaccination.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of polio vaccination given=x

Let the number of measles vaccination given=y

Dr. Potter gave a total of 60 vaccinations

x+y=60

Since each polio vaccination consists of 4 doses, and each measles vaccination consists of 2 doses. A total of 184 doses was given out.

4x+2y=184

To find the values of x and y, we solve the two equations simultaneously.

x+y=60 (1)

4x+2y=184 (2)

From (1), x=60-y

Substitute x=60-y into equation 2.

4x+2y=184

4(60-y)+2y=184

240-4y+2y=184

240-184=4y-2y

56=2y

Divode both sides by 2

y=23

Recall earlier that x=60-y

x=60-23=37

Dr Potter gave 37 polio vaccinations and 23 measles vaccination.
