A piece of cloth is folded into a square with a side length measuring x inches. When it is unfolded, it has an area of x2 + 27x

+ 162 square inches.
Please answer ..
Which could be the dimensions of the rectangular piece of cloth when it is unfolded? Remember, the area of a rectangle can be determined using the formula A = lw.

length = (x + 9) inches and width = (x + 3) inches
length = (x − 3) inches and width = (x − 9) inches
length = (x + 18) inches and width = (x + 9) inches
length = (x − 9) inches and width = (x − 18) inches

A piece of cloth is folded into a square with a side length measuring x inches. When it is unfolded, it has an area of x2 + 27x + 162 square inches. Since the area for square is x times x then equate the given equation to the area fomula.
(x2 + 27x + 162) = 0(x + 9) (x + 18) = 0The dimensions are 9 and 18

Answer:

C. Length is (x+18) inches and width is (x+9) inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the side of the cloth is 'x' inches.

As, the area of the cloth is x^{2}+27x+162.

Equating the polynomial by 0, we will find the roots of the equation.

i.e. x^{2}+27x+162=0

Solution of the quadratic equation is given by,

x=\frac{-27\pm \sqrt{27^{2}-4\times 1\times 162}}{2\times 1}

i.e. x=\frac{-27\pm \sqrt{729-648}}{2}

i.e. x=\frac{-27\pm \sqrt{81}}{2}

i.e. x=\frac{-27+9}{2} and x=\frac{-27-9}{2}

i.e. x=\frac{-18}{2} and x=\frac{-36}{2}

i.e. x= -9 and x= -18

As, the area of rectangle is L × W.

So, we have the area of the cloth is (x+9)(x+18).

Thus, the length is (x+18) inches and width is (x+9) inches.

Answer:

The volume increases at a rate of 125663.71 mm^ 3 / s

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of the radius with respect to time is 4 mm / s.


So:


\frac{dr}{dt} = 4mm / s

Now we must find a relationship between the volume of a sphere and its radius.


The equation of the volume of a sphere is:


V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^ 3

So:


\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{4}{3}\pi * 3r ^ 2 * \frac{dr}{dt}\\\frac{dV}{dt} = 4\pi r ^ 2 * 4\\\frac{dV}{dt} = 16\pi r ^ 2

The diameter of the sphere is 100 mm. Therefore its radius is 100/2 = 50 mm.


So:


\frac{dV}{dt} = 16\pi (50) ^ 2\\\frac{dV}{dt} = 40000\pi mm^3 / s


The volume increases at a rate of :

40000 π mm ^ 3 / s = 125663.71 mm^3/s

What is the solution to this equation 10x-15x+5=-45+20
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

<h2>6</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

10x - 15x + 5 =  - 45 + 20

Collect like terms

- 5x + 5 =  - 45 + 20

Calculate the sum

- 5x + 5 =  - 25

Move constant to RHS and change its sign

- 5x =  - 25 - 5

Calculate

- 5x =  - 30

Divide both sides of the equation by -5

\frac{ - 5x}{ - 5}  =   \frac{ - 30}{ - 5}

Calculate

x = 6

Hope this helps...

Best regards!!
