Answer:
This (x - 5) represents the length of the rectangle.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the area of a rectangle of length L and width W is A = L * W.
Here, the width is x - 4 and the area is x^2 + x - 20. Dividing the width (x - 4) into the area results in an expression for the length:
x - 4 / x^2 + x - 20
Let's use synthetic division here. It's a little faster than long division.
If the divisor in long division is x - 4, we know immediately that the divisor in synthetic division is 4:
4 / 1 1 -20
4 20
--------------------
1 5 0
This synthetic division results in a remainder of 0. This tells us that 4 (or the corresponding (x - 4) is indeed a root of the polynomial x^2 + x - 20, and so *(x - 4) is a factor. From the coefficients 1 and 5 we can construct the other factor: (x - 5). This (x - 5) represents the length of the rectangle.

Urn 1 = 4 green balls and 6 blue balls, a total of 10 balls
Urn 2 = 6 green balls and 2 blue balls, a total of 8 balls.
Probability of blue balls:
Urn 1 : P = 6/10
Urn 2 : P = 2/8
Probability that both balls are blue:
6/10 * 2/8 = 6*2 / 10*8 = 12/80 = 6/40 = 3/20
Answer is B. 3/20
A regular quadrilateral prism has 12 edges. It is given perimeter of the base 32 cm. Length of each edge of base will be 32÷4=8 cm. The 4 edges at the top will also have the same number of edges that is 4 with measure 8cm each.
Given: The height of the prism is 2 times greater than the length of the base edge.Height of prism = 2(8)= 16cm. Number of edges with measure 16 cm is 4.
Sum of all the 12 edges= 8+8+8+8+16+16+16+16+8+8+8+8=128 cm.
