Answer:

w = 19

L = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

L = w - 13

a = lw

114 = w(w - 13)

114 = w² - 13w

w² - 13w - 114

(w - 9) (w + 6)

w ≠ -6 (a length cannot be negative)

w = 19

L = 19 - 13

L = 6

here is ur answer dear frnd

let width = x cm

so length = x - 13 cm

According to question ,

Area = length × breadth

114 = x( x-13)

114= x^2 - 13 x

x^2 -13x - 114 =0

x^2 -19x + 6x -114 =0

x(x-19) + 6(x- 19)= 0

(x-19)(x+6)= 0

take x - 19 = 0

so x = 19

take x+6 = 0

that gives x= -6 ( not possible)

so width = 19 cm

and length = 19- 13 = 6 cm

Find the next three terms of the sequence?
forsale [732]

Answer:

The correct answer is D. -2,592, -15,552, -93,312

Step-by-step explanation:

Each of the terms is the previous term multiplied by 6. You can find this by taking any term and dividing it by the one before it. The answer will always be 6.

-72/-12 = 6

-12/-2 = 6

So, in order to find the next 3, we take the last term and multiply it by 6.

-432 * 6 = -2,592

-2,592 * 6 = -15,552

-15,552 * 6 = -93,312

a worker A finishes a project on his own in 12 days. the worker completes the same work alone in 16 days. the two workers starte
ankoles [38]

Answer:

<em>Worker B needs 9 days to finish the rest of the work</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Proportions</u>

Worker A finishes a project on his own in 12 days and worker B does the same in 16 days.

Worker A does 1/12 of the project in one day and worker B does 1/16 of the project in one day. When working together, they do

\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{16}=\frac{7}{48}

After 3 days they have completed:

3*\frac{7}{48}=\frac{7}{16}

parts of the project, this means it still remains:

1-\frac{7}{16}=\frac{9}{16}

parts of the project and it is done by B alone. Since B does \frac{1}{16} per day, he now takes

\displaystyle \frac{\frac{9}{16}}{\frac{1}{16}}=9

days to complete the project.

Worker B needs 9 days to finish the rest of the work

I NEED THIS ASAP, PLEASE HELP!!!
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: 22.5 ; 5 ; 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the dataset:

{20,22,23,24,26,26,28,29,30}

The lower quartile (Q1) = 1/4(n + 1)th term

Where n = number of observations, n = 9

Q1 = 1/4 (9 + 1)th term

Q1 = 1/4(10) = 2.5

We average the 2nd and 3rd term:

(22 + 23) / 2

45 / 2 = 22.5

B) The interquartile range(IQR) of the dataset :

{62,63,64,65,67,68,68,68,69,74}

IQR = Q3 - Q1

The lower quartile (Q1) = 1/4(n + 1)th term

Where n = number of observations, n = 10

Q1 = 1/4 (10 + 1)th term

Q1 = 1/4(11) = 2.75 term

We take the average of the 2nd and 3rd term:

(63 + 64) / 2

45 / 2 = 63.5

The upper quartile (Q3) = 3/4(n + 1)th term

Where n = number of observations, n = 10

Q3 = 3/4 (10 + 1)th term

Q3 = 3/4(11) = 8.25 term

We take the average of the 8th and 9th term:

(68 + 69) / 2

137 / 2 = 68.5

IQR = Q3 - Q1

IQR = 68.5 - 63.5

IQR = 5

C) give the dataset :

{7,8,8,9,10,12,13,15,16}

The upper quartile (Q3) = 3/4(n + 1)th term

Where n = number of observations, n = 9

Q3 = 3/4 (9 + 1)th term

Q3 = 3/4(10) = 7.5 term

We take the average of the 7th and 8th term:

(13 + 15) / 2

28 / 2 = 14

Complete the square to solve 4x2 + 24x = 4.
igomit [66]

Answer:

x = - 3 ± \sqrt{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4x² + 24x = 4 ( divide through by 4 )

x² + 6x = 1

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(3)x + 9 = 1 + 9

(x + 3)² = 10 ( take the square root of both sides )

x + 3 = ± \sqrt{10} ( subtract 3 from both sides )

x = - 3 ± \sqrt{10}
