Answer:

width: (x+4) ft, length: (x+5) ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If the area was x2 + 9x + 20, and the length was (x+5), we find the width dividing the first polynomial by the second (or find what polynomial, multiplied by the second, will give us the first). We can see that the last value of the first polynomial is 20, and the last of the second is 5, so dividing these two values will give us the last value of the width polynomial, so we have that the width before construction is (x+4) ft.

Answer:

The dimension of the rectangular closet before construction =   (x + 5) ft by (x +  4) ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The homeowner has a rectangular closet and the area of the closet is (x² + 9x + 20) ft². The area of a rectangle is the length multiplied by the width.  The length is given as (x + 5) ft. After construction the area change to (x² + 14x + 48) ft². The length became (x + 6) ft.

The dimensions before construction can be calculated as follows:

Mathematically,

area of rectangle = Length × width

area = (x² + 9x + 20) ft².

Length =  (x + 5) ft

Width = unknown

area = LW

(x² + 9x + 20)  =  (x + 5) W

W = (x² + 9x + 20) / x + 5

W = (x +  4) ft

The dimension of the rectangular closet before construction =   (x + 5) ft by (x +  4) ft

Ellen read a book a day for 10 weeks. How many books did<br> she read in all?
a_sh-v [17]

1 week = 7 days

10 weeks = 10×7 days

= 70 days

if Ellen reads 1 book in a day

Therefore,

1 day = 1 book

70 days = 70×1

= 70 books.

Thus Ellen reads 70 books in 10 weeks.

Hope helps

A political pollster wants to know what proportion of voters are planning to vote for the incumbent candidate in an upcoming ele
balandron [24]

Answer:

1.\ \ np\geq 10\\\\2.\ \ n\geq 10x

Step-by-step explanation:

-Let x be the sample size and n the population size

-The conditions for a one-sample proportion z-test are:

-The sample is randomly selected from the population.

-The sample size is greater than or equal to ten times the population size:

n\geq 10x\\\\n=2000\\x=150\\10x=1500\\\therefore n\geq 10x

-The expectation np is greater than or equal to 10:

np\geq 10\\n=2000, p=0.6\\np=1200\\\\Hence, np\geq 10
