Let L be the length of the rectangle and W be the width. In the problem it is given that L=2W-3. It is also given that the area LW=27. Substituting in the length in terms of width, we have W(2W-3)=27 \\ 2W^2-3W-27=0 \\ (2W-9)(W+3)=0. Using the zero product property, 2W-9=0 \text{ or } W+3=0. Solving these we get the width W=4.5 \text{ or } -3. However, it doesn't make sense for the width to be negative, so the width must be \boxed{4.5 \text{ m}}. From that we can tell the length L=2(4.5)-3=\boxed{6 \text{ m}}.

Alik [6]

In general,

(f\cdot g)(x)=f(x)\cdot g(x)

Therefore, in our case,

(f\cdot g)(x)=(0.5x{}^2-2)(8x^3+2)=4x^5-16x^3+x^2-4<h2>The answer is 4x^5-16x^3+x^2-4. Select 4, 16, 1, 4 (left to right)</h2>

What percent of 33 is 96
Nataly_w [17]
<span>96/x=100/33
(96/x)*x=(100/33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
96=3.0303030303*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.0303030303) to get x
96/3.0303030303=x 
31.68=x 
x=31.68

now we have: 
33% of 96=31.68
