Answer:

c) Length = 12, width = 8 and height = 23.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be x, then the width = x - 4 and the height = 2x - 1.

a) The polynomial is x(x - 4)(2x - 1)

b) x(x - 4)(2x - 1) = 2208

c) x(x - 4)(2x - 1) - 2280 = 0

2x^3 - 9x^2 + 4x - 2280 = 0

I'll use graphical software to find a solution for this. Its easily obtained online.

There is one real root and its x = 12.

So the dimensions of the box are L = 12, W = 8 and H = 23 inches.

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation will be in the form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2.5, 0) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{0-5}{2.5-0} = - 2

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 5) ⇒ c = 5

y = - 2x + 5 or

y = 5 - 2x → A

Which of the following numbers is irrational
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

E

Step-by-step explanation:

Irrational means cannot be put into a fraction. Or random repeating decimals is how I remember it.

√48 can be simplified to equal 4√3. √3 cannot be put into fraction form.

Please answer this these are all the points i got left XD

Answer is choice B

The ratio of the sides (first to the second) is 11/9 since we divide 22/18 and reduce that fraction

Once we know the scale factor is 11/9, we square it to get (11/9)^2 = 121/81 which is the ratio of the first area to the second area
