Answer: 1408

Step-by-step explanation:

You are finding the area of the rectangle (length times width). You are going to multiply 16 and 11, which equals 176. You take the area of the carpet and multiply it by how much it costs($8.00). The answer would be $1408.00

The width of a box in the shape of a rectangular prism is 4 inches more than the height h . The length is the difference of 9 in

Doss [256]

Answer:

$(a)$ $V = -H^3+ 5H^2 + 36H$

$(b)$ $Length = 5in; Width = 9in; Height = 5in$ or $Length = 3in; Width = 10in; Height = 6in$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let:

$W=Width; L = Length; H = Height$

Given

$W = 4 + H$

$L = 9 - H$

Solving (a): The polynomial for the volume in terms of height

Volume (V) is calculated using:

$V = L * W * H$

$V = (9 - H) * (4 + H) * H$

Expand

$V = (9 - H) * (4H + H^2)$

Open brackets

$V = 36H + 9H^2 - 4H^2 - H^3$

$V = 36H + 5H^2 - H^3$

Rewrite as:

$V = -H^3+ 5H^2 + 36H$

Solving (b): The dimensions when Volume = 180

Substitute 180 for V in: $V = -H^3+ 5H^2 + 36H$

$180 = -H^3+ 5H^2 + 36H$

Rewrite as:

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

Factorize:

$H^2(H - 5) - 36(H - 5) = 0$

$(H^2 - 36)(H - 5) = 0$

Express $H^2 - 36$ as difference of two squares

$(H - 6)(H + 6)(H - 5) =0$

This gives:

$H - 6 =0==> H = 6$

$H + 6 =0==> H = -6$

$H - 5 =0==> H = 5$

Since the height can not be negative, then H = 5 or H = 6

Recall that:

$W = 4 + H$

$L = 9 - H$

When H = 5

$W = 4 + 5 = 9$

$L = 9 - 5 = 4$

When H = 6

$W = 4 + 6 = 10$

$L = 9 - 6 = 3$

Hence, the dimensions of the box are:

$Length = 5in; Width = 9in; Height = 5in$

or

$Length = 3in; Width = 10in; Height = 6in$

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

h(g(2)) = h( 2²) = h(4) ; because g(x=2) = 2²

h(4) = 5*4+1 = 21

Complete the pairs of corresponding parts if ABD congruent to EFC.

Alchen [17]

Remember the notation..

When you have a triangle called ABD, the angles may be called in theses equivalent ways>

angle A is equivalent to ∠ DAB
angle B is equivalent to ∠ ABD
angle D is equivalen to ∠ BDA

Then given that the two triangles are congruent, you can say an

angle B = angle F = ∠ EFC

So the answer is the last option of the list.
