area = 2x² + 7x - 4

the area (A )  of a rectangle = length × width

A = (2x - 1 )(x + 4 ) ← expand using FOIL

   = 2x² + 8x - x - 4 = 2x² + 7x - 4

erma4kov [3.2K]
If you have graph paper (or regular paper, graph is easier) you can plot it out. The equation would be y=x-1
just graph the point and then go up one over one until you get cross the y-axis

30% of Number A is the same as 40% of Number B.
Goryan [66]

30% of number A means

\dfrac{30A}{100}=\dfrac{3A}{10}

similarly, 40% of number B means

\dfrac{40B}{100}=\dfrac{2B}{5}

These must be equal, so we have

\dfrac{3A}{10}=\dfrac{2B}{5}

Multiply both sides by 10 to get

3A=4B \iff A=\dfrac{4B}{3}

So, you can choose any number for A, and then you multiply it by 4/3 to get B. There are infinitely many solutions to this equation.

What is the length of the apothem of a regular hexagon with 10-cm sides?
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The length of apothem of given hexagon is 8.66 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Apothem of a polygon is given by:

apothem = \frac{s}{2\ tan\ (\frac{180}{n})}

Here

s is length of side

tan is trigonometric function

and n denotes number of sides

Given that the polygon is a hexagon

s = 10cm\\n = 6

Putting the values in the formula

apothem = \frac{10}{2\ tan\ (\frac{180}{6})}\\= \frac{10}{2\ tan\ 30}\\=\frac{10}{2 * 0.5773}\\=\frac{10}{1.1546}\\=8.6610\\Rounding\ off\ to\ nearest\ hundredth\\= 8.66\ cm

Hence,

The length of apothem of given hexagon is 8.66 cm

Find the greatest four digit square number by division method​
Agata [3.3K]
9999 is largest 4 digit number, and 100^2 is 10000, or 1 greater than the largest 4 digit number. This means that the closest square root of the largest perfect square is most likely 99. So 99^2 (9801)is the largest perfect square of four digits.
