A conference room is in the shape of a rectangle. Its floor has a length of (x − 4) meters and a width of (3x − 1) meters. The e

xpression below represents the area of the floor of the room in square meters:
(x − 4)(3x − 1)

Which of the following simplified expressions represents the area of the floor of the conference room in square meters?

x2 − 13x + 4
3x2 − 13x + 4
3x2 − 11x + 4
x2 − 12x + 4

Answer:

3x^2−13x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

(x−4)(3x−1)

=(x+−4)(3x+−1)

=(x)(3x)+(x)(−1)+(−4)(3x)+(−4)(−1)

=3x^2−x−12x+4

=3x^2−13x+4

Answer:

Option A. 3x² - 13x + 4 is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

A conference room is in the shape of a rectangle. Its floor has a length of (x - 4) and width of (3x - 1) meters.

The expression that represents the area of the room is (x - 4)(3x -1) meter²

We further simplify this expression representing the area of the conference room.

(x - 4)(3x -1) = x(3x -1) - 4(3x -1) [Distributive law]

= 3x² - x - 12x + 4

= 3x² - 13x + 4

Option A. 3x² - 13x + 4 is the simplified form of the given expression.

Using translation concepts, it is found that his mistake was that he made the shifts on the wrong coordinates, and the new location is at (1,5).

<h3>What is a translation?</h3>

A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction in it's definition.

Initially, researching the problem on the internet, it is found that the market is at position (3,8).

Then, it was shifted 2 units left and 3 units down, hence the new position is given by:

(3 - 2, 8 - 3) = (1,5).

His mistake was that he made the shifts on the wrong coordinates, and the new location is at (1,5).

The sum of two numbers is 14. When one number is added to twice the other number, the result is 25. Find the numbers

ELEN [110]

Let x and y be the two numbers. We have:

$\begin{cases}x+y=14\\x+2y=25\end{cases}$

Subtract the first equation from the second to get

$y=11$

And deduce

$x+11=14 \iff x=3$

The two numbers are 3 and 11.

a street light is at the top of a 18 ft tall pole. a woman 6 ft tall walks away from the pole with a speed of 4 ft/sec along a s

shutvik [7]

The most appropriate choice for similarity of triangles will be given by -

Speed of tip of the shadow of woman = 6 ft/s

What are similar triangles?

Two triangles are said to be similar, if the corrosponding angles of the triangles are same and the corrosponding sides of the triangles are in the same ratio.

Here,

The diagram has been attached here

Let the distance of woman from the pole be x ft and the distance of tip of the shadow to the pole be y ft.

Height of street light = 18 ft

Height of woman = 6ft

The two triangles are similar [As height of woman is parallel to the height of pole]

$\frac{y - x}{6}=\frac{y}{18}\\18y - 18x = 6y\\18y - 6y = 18x\\12y = 18x\\y = \frac{18}{12}x\\y = \frac{3}{2}x\\$

To find the speed, we have to differentiate both sides with respect to time 't'

$\frac{dy}{dt} =\frac{3}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}\\\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{3}{2} \times 4\\\frac{dy}{dt} = 6$

Speed of tip of her shadow = 6 ft

Which diagram represents the vector addition C=A+B. Which represents vector subtraction C=A-B?

olga55 [171]

If the vectors point towards the same direction, the magnitude of the vector quantities are added as in, C = A + B. If they point towards opposite direction, the magnitudes are subtracted giving a resultant vector equal to C = A - B.
