The missing side is 7 in

Explanation:
The information we have to know in order to solve this is that the formula of area of trapezoid is
a = 1/2h (b1 + b2)

We can fill in the information we know from the picture into the equation
15 = 1/2(3.4) (1.8 + b2)

The dimension we are solving for is b2, or base 2. To make it easier, let's replace b2 with n. Now we can solve this equation

1) Multiply 1/2 by 3.4, which is 1.7
15 = 1.7 (1.8 + n)

2) Distribute by doing 1.7 x 1.8 + 1.7 x n
15 = 17n + 3.06

3) Subtract 3.06 from both sides of the equation
15 - 3.06 = 17n + 3.06 - 3.06
11.94 = 17n

4) To isolate n, since we want one n instead of 17, we divide both sides by 17
11.94/17 = 17n/17
7 = n

A rectangle has a length of 14 yards less than 9 times its width. If the area of the rectangle is 6183 square yards, find the le

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

$l=238\ yards$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Area of Rectangle A=6183

Equation of Length

$l=9w-14$

Where

$w=width\ of\ triangle$

Generally the equation for Area of Rectangle is mathematically given by

$A=(9w-14)w$

$A=9w^2-14w$

$6183=9w^2-14w$

$9w^2-14w-6183=0$

$w=28$

Therefore

$l=9(28)-14$

$l=238\ yards$

Find an equation in slope-intercept form for the line with a zero slope and passes through (12, -9). a. x = 12 c. y = 12x - 9 b.

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

b. y = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

A line with zero slope has no dependence on x. It is simply ...

... y = constant

The constant must be the same as the y-value of the point you want the line to go through. Since the point is (12, -9), the constant is -9 and the equation is ...

... y = -9

Answer:

<em>The fraction of the beads that are red is</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Algebraic Expressions</u>

A bag contains red (r), yellow (y), and blue (b) beads. We are given the following ratios:

r:y = 2:3

y:b = 5:4

We are required to find r:s, where s is the total of beads in the bag, or

s = r + y + b

Thus, we need to calculate:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b} \qquad\qquad [1]$

Knowing that:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{y}=\frac{2}{3} \qquad\qquad [2]$

$\displaystyle \frac{y}{b}=\frac{5}{4}$

Multiplying the equations above:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{y}\frac{y}{b}=\frac{2}{3}\frac{5}{4}$

Simplifying:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{b}=\frac{5}{6} \qquad\qquad [3]$

Dividing [1] by r:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+y/r+b/r}$

Substituting from [2] and [3]:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+3/2+6/5}$

Operating:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{\frac{10+3*5+6*2}{10}}$

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{10}{10+15+12}$

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{10}{37}$

The fraction of the beads that are red is $\mathbf{\frac{10}{37}}$

Which answer best describes the complex zeros of the polynomial function?

marysya [2.9K]

<u>Answer-</u>

<em>D. The function has one real zero and two nonreal zeros. The graph of the function intersects the x-axis at exactly one location.</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

The given polynomial is,

$f(x)=x^3-x^2+6x-6$

The zeros of the polynomials are,

$\Rightarrow f(x)=0$

$\Rightarrow x^3-x^2+6x-6=0$

$\Rightarrow x^2(x-1)+6(x-1)=0$

$\Rightarrow (x^2+6)(x-1)=0$

$\Rightarrow (x^2+6)=0,(x-1)=0$

$\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{-6},\ x=1$

$\Rightarrow x=1,\ \pm \sqrt6i$

Therefore, this function has only one real zero i.e 1 and two nonreal zeros i.e ±√6i . The graph of the function intersects the x-axis at exactly one location i.e at x = 1
