Natali [406]4 years ago
8 0

Answer: -116

Step-by-step explanation: Since negative numbers are involved, the best way to solve this is add 95 and POSITIVE 21. This gives you 116. Since you move from a positive to a negative, the 116 needs to be negative

The length of a rectangle is 5in longer than its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 46in, find its area
Crank
<span>width = x
</span><span>length = x+5

2x + 2(x+5) = 46
2x + 2x + 10 = 46
4x = 46 - 10
4x = 36
x = 36/4 </span><span>
x = 9 in  </span> ←  width 

length = x+5 = 9 + 5 = 14 in
<span>
Area = 9 * 14 = 126 in</span>²<span>

How is the process of finding the surface area of a rectangular prism the same as finding the surface area of a triangular prism
harina [27]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The surface area of a prism is given by the formula

SA=2B+PH

where

B is the area of the base

P is the perimeter of the base

H is the height of the prism

For both prism the formula is the same

How is it different?

Rectangular prism

The area of the base is given by the formula

A=LW -----> is the area of rectangle

where

L is the length and W is the width of rectangle

The perimeter of the base is given by

P=2(L+W) ---> is the perimeter of rectangle

The height H is the same in both cases

Triangular prism

The area of the base is given by the formula

A=\frac{1}{2} (b)(h) -----> is the area of the triangular base

where

b is the base of triangle and h is the height of triangle

The perimeter of the base is given by

P=(a+b+c) ---> is the perimeter of triangle

where

a, b and c are the length sides of triangle

The height H is the same in both cases

List all possible rational roots. Then use synthetic division to confirm which rational roots exist:
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

\boxed{(1) \, x = \, \pm \dfrac{1}{2}, \pm 1, \pm2, \pm \dfrac{5}{2}, \pm 5, \pm 10; (2) \, x = -2}

Step-by-step explanation:

2x³+ 6x² - x - 10 = 0

(1) Possible roots

The Rational Roots Theorem states that, if a polynomial has any rational roots, they will have the form p/q, where p is a factor of the constant term  and q is a factor of the leading coefficient.

\text{Possible rational root} = \dfrac{ p }{ q } = \dfrac{\text{factor of constant term}}{\text{factor of leading coefficient}}

In your function, the constant term is -10 and the leading coefficient is 2, so

\text{Possible root} = \dfrac{\text{factor of 10}}{\text{factor of 2}}

Factors of 10 = ±1, ±2, ±5, ±10

Factors of 2 = ±1, ±2

\text{Possible roots are } \large \boxed{\mathbf{x = \pm \dfrac{1}{2}, \pm 1, \pm2, \pm \dfrac{5}{2}, \pm 5, \pm 10}}

(2) Synthetic division

Rather than work through all 12 possibilities, I will do one that works.

\begin{array}{r|rrrr}-2 & 2 & 6 & -1 & -10\\& & -4& -4 & 10\\& 2 & 2& -5 & 0\\\end{array}

So, x = -2 is a root, and the quotient is 2x² + 2x - 5.

(3) Check for other rational roots

2x² + 2x - 5 = 0

D = b² - 4ac =2²- 4(2)(-5) = 4 + 40 = 44

√44 = 2√11, which is irrational.

Since irrational roots come in pairs, the cubic equation has two real, irrational roots and one rational root at x = -2.
