L=w+9

p=2w+2l
p=2w+2*(w+9)
p=2w+2w+2*9
p=4w+18
4w+18=38
4w=38-18
4w=20
w=20:4
w=5 in
l=5+9=14 in

F(x)=-(x+2)^2+3 put in standard form

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

F(x)=-x^2-4x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

According to PEMDAS, do the exponent part for the parentheses, sense it goes first.

F(x)= -(x^2+4x+4)+3

Then distribute the - sign

F(x)= -x^2-4x-4+3

Then you simplify

F(x)= -x^2-4x-1

If one basket contains five bottles each weighing 7 1/4 ANSYS and the other basket has six apples each weighing 6 1/2 ounces woo

Tems11 [23]

<em>Question:</em>

<em>If one basket contains five bottles each weighing 7 1/4 and the other basket has six apples each weighing 6 1/2 ounces. Which basket is heavier and by how much ?</em>

Answer:

The basket of bottles weighs more than the basket of apples by $3\frac{3}{4}$ ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Bottles = 5$

$Weight(Bottle) = 7\frac{1}{4}$

$Apples = 6$

$Weight(Apple) = 6\frac{1}{2}$

Required

Determine which basket is heavy

and by how much?

First, we need the total weight of each basket.

For the bottles' basket

$Total\ Weight = Weight * Bottles$

$Total\ Weight = 7\frac{1}{4} * 5$

$Total\ Weight = \frac{29}{4} * 5$

$Total\ Weight = \frac{29 * 5}{4}$

$Total\ Weight = \frac{145}{4}$

$Total\ Weight = 36\frac{1}{4}$

For the bottles' basket

$Total\ Weight = Weight * Apples$

$Total\ Weight = 6\frac{1}{2} * 5$

$Total\ Weight = \frac{13}{2} * 5$

$Total\ Weight = \frac{13* 5}{2}$

$Total\ Weight = \frac{65}{2}$

$Total\ Weight = 32\frac{1}{2}$

By comparing both total weights, $36\frac{1}{4} > 32\frac{1}{2}$

Hence:

The basket of bottles weighs more than the basket of apples

Calculating the difference:

$Difference = 36\frac{1}{4} - 32\frac{1}{2}$

$Difference = \frac{145}{4} - \frac{65}{2}$

$Difference = \frac{145 - 130}{4}$

$Difference = \frac{15}{4}$

$Difference = 3\frac{3}{4}$

Hence:

It weighs more by $3\frac{3}{4}$ ounces

The angle of a quadrilateral are A.P and the common difference is 10°. find the angles.

xxMikexx [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

So the Ap will be x,x+10,x+20,x+30

Sum of the angles of a quadrilateral is 360

x+x+10+x+20+x+30=360

4x+60=360

4x=300

x=75

So the angles are 75,85,95,105
