Answer:

The height of the trough is about 1.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If each cubic foot of water contains about 7.5 gallons.

Then; 315 gallons is about \frac{315}{7.5}=42ft^3

Let h be the height of the trough, then

7\times 4\times h=42

This implies that;

28h=42

Divide both sides by 28 to get:

h=\frac{42}{28}

\therefore h=1.5

The height of the trough is about 1.5 ft

According to synthetic division below, which of the following statements are true ?
Whitepunk [10]

ANSWER

C

E

F

EXPLANATION

The result of the synthetic division is :

3 -1 0

The last number is the remainder which is 0

The first two numbers are the coefficients of the quotient.

Therefore the quotient is 3x -1

Since the remainder is 0, x-4 is a factor of

f(x) = 3 {x}^{2}  - 13x +  4

This also means that:

(3 {x}^{2}  - 13x +  4)  \div (x - 4) = 3x - 1

This again means that x=4 is a root of

f(x) = 3 {x}^{2}  - 13x +  4

The correct choices are C,E and F.

dale has a square garden. He adds a 2-foot-wide walkway around his garden. If the total area of the walkway and garden is 196 sq
dem82 [27]
Let the side of the garden alone (without walkway) be x.  
Then the area of the garden alone is x^2.  
The walkway is made up as follows:

1) four rectangles of width 2 feet and length x, and 
 2) four squares, each of area 2^2 square feet.


The total walkway area is thus x^2 + 4(2^2) + 4(x*2).  

We want to find the dimensions of the garden.  To do this, we need to find the value of x.

Let's sum up the garden dimensions and the walkway dimensions:

x^2 + 4(2^2) + 4(x*2) = 196 sq ft

x^2 + 16 + 8x = 196 sq ft

x^2 + 8x - 180 = 0

(x-10(x+18) = 0

x=10 or x=-18.  We must discard x=-18, since the side length can't be negative.  We are left with x = 10 feet.

The garden dimensions are (10 feet)^2, or 100 square feet.
