A boiler room has the shape of a rectangular prism. The area of the floor of the room is 112 square feet. The length of the room

Naddik [55]

Answer:

Length = 16 feet.

Width = 7 feet

Height = 8 feet

Volume = 896 cubic feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a rectangular prism boiler room. 112 square feet is the floor area of the room.

Let the length of the room is L feet and width is W feet.

So, LW = 112 ...... (1)

Now, given that L = 2 + 2W ........ (2) , hence, from equation (1) we get

(2 + 2W)W = 112

⇒ 2w + 2w² = 112

⇒ W² + W - 56 = 0

⇒ (W +8)(W - 7) = 0

⇒ W = 7 feet. {Neglecting the negative root as W can not be negative}

Hence, from equation (2) we get L = 2W + 2 = 16 feet.

Now, 1 foot more than the width is the height H.

Hence, H = 7 + 1 = 8 feet.

Therefore, the volume of the room is, V = LWH = 16 × 7 × 8 = 896 cubic feet. (Answer)

Simplify. (−5p4z6u)3

sineoko [7]

The rules of exponents tell you that you can distribute the exponent to each of the factors. When one already has an exponent, those exponents multiply.
$(-5p^{4}z^{6}u)^{3}=(-5)^{3}\cdot(p^{4})^{3}\cdot(z^{6})^{3}\cdot u^{3}\\\\=-125p^{4\cdot 3}z^{6\cdot 3}u^{3}\\\\=-125p^{12}z^{18}u^{3}$

Assume we cut the last piece of the pie into two sections (1 and 2) along ray BD

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

If we want the greatest portion of pie, then you must choose the section with the greatest angle. Therefore, we must choose Section 2. But if we want the smallest portion of pie, then we must choose Section 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

From statement, we know that measure of the angle ABC is equal to the sum of measures of angles ABD (section 1) and DBC (section 2), that is to say:

$m \angle ABC = m\angle ABD + m\angle DBC$ (1)

If we know that $m\angle ABC = 40^{\circ}$ , $m\angle ABD = 2\cdot x + 3$ and $m\angle DBC = 4\cdot x + 7$ , then the value of $x$ is:

$(2\cdot x + 3)+(4\cdot x + 7) = 40^{\circ}$

$6\cdot x +10^{\circ} = 40^{\circ}$

$6\cdot x = 30^{\circ}$

$x = 5$

Then, we check the angles of each section:

Section 1

$m\angle ABD = 2\cdot x + 3$

$m\angle ABD = 13^{\circ}$

Section 2

$m\angle DBC = 4\cdot x + 7$

$m\angle DBC = 27^{\circ}$

If we want the greatest portion of pie, then you must choose the section with the greatest angle. Therefore, we must choose Section 2. But if we want the smallest portion of pie, then we must choose Section 1.

The product of 18 and 5 less than a number is 162

Svetlanka [38]

So product means multiply
les than means minus
product of 18 and 5 less than a number means
18 times (x-5)
is 162
equals
18(x-5)=162
divide both siddes by 18
x-5=9
add 5
x=14
