Answer:

20.5882% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage reduction= [ (Starting Value - Final Value) / |Starting Value| ] × 100

=[($85−$67.50)/|$85|]×100 = <u>20.5882%</u>

Dimensions of a Box A large plywood box has a volume of . Its length is ft greater than its height, and its width is ft less tha

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Few things are missing, they are volume of the box is 180 feet cube. Length is 9 feet greater than its height, and weight is 4 feet less than its height.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, the volume of the box, V = 180 feet cube

Let the height of the box, h = x feet

Therefore, length is, l = ( 9+x ) feet

And width is, b = ( x-4) feet

so volume of the box is

V = l x b x h

$180= (x+9) \times (x-4) \times (x)$

$x^3 +5x^2-36x -180 =0$

Factorizing we get

(x+5)(x-6)(x+6)=0

Therefore,

x = -5, -6, 6

Now since the height of the box cannot be negative, so taking the positive value of x, we get

Height of the box, h = x = 6 feet

Length , l = ( 9+x ) = 9+6 = 15 feet

Width , b = ( x-4) = 6-4 = 2 feet

Hey, how do I apply the digital root method to division? Thanks.

REY [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

The digital root of a number is the single digit that you get by adding all of the digits of the original number together. If the result of that is multiple digits, you add those digits together, repeating the process until you get a single digit. That digit is the digital root of the original number.

example given

2+5+7+5+2+0+6+4+3

7+12+2+10+3

7+1+2+2+13

8+4+1+3

What are the two solutions of 2x^2 = -X^2 - 5x - 1?

Sidana [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve 2x^2 = -X^2 - 5x - 1. Consolidate all terms on the left side and write 0 on the right side:

3x^2 + 5x + 1 = 0. This is a quadratic equation. Let's solve it for x using the quadratic formula:

a = 3, b = 5, c = 1, and so the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac = 5^2 - 4(3)(1) = 13. Because the discriminant is positive, we know that there are two distinct, real roots; the graphs of y = 2x^2 and y = x^2 - 5x - 1 intersect in two places whose x-coordinates are the real roots mentioned above.

Answer A is not correct as stated, but would be correct if we were to replace "the y-coordinates" with "the x-coordinates."

Answer C would be correct if and only if we write y = x^2 - 5x - 1.
