So legnt=l
width=w
l=-7+3w
l=3w-7

area=66
area=legnth times width or
area=lw

subisutte
area=lw
l=3w-7
66=(3w-7)(w)
66=3w^2-7w
subtrac 66 from both sides
0=3w^2-7w-66
factor
HOW TO
multiply 3 and -66=-198
find what 2 numbers add up to -7 and multiply to get -198
the numbers area 11 and -18
so
3w^2-18w+11w-66=0
factor
(3w^2-18w)+(11w-66)=0
(3w)(w-6)+(11)(w-6)=0
factor using distributive (ab+ac=a(b+c))

(3w+11)(w-6)=0
set them to zero
3w+11=0
subtract 11
3w=-11
legnths cannot be negative so we discard this

w-6=0
add 6
w=6

width=6
legnth=3w-7
length=3(6)-7
legnt=18-7
legnth=11


width=6
legnth=11

The population of California is approximately 38,040,000. The population of Texas is about 2.606 × 107. What is the approximate
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

The total population of these two states is:

3.804\times \:\:10^7+2.606\times \:\:10^7\:=10^7\times \:\:6.41

Therefore, option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The population of California is approximately 38,040,000.
  • The population of Texas is about 2.606 × 10⁷.

Writing the population of California i.e.38,040,000  in scientific notation by moving the decimal point 7 places to the left and dropping the 0's on the right  side as they're after the decimal point now.

i.e.

38,040,000 = 3.804 x 10⁷

So adding 3.804 x 10⁷ and 2.606 × 10⁷

i.e.

3.804\times \:10^7+2.606\times \:10^7

\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:10^7\times \:3.804+10^7\times \:2.606=10^7\times \:6.41

Thus, the total population of these two states is:

3.804\times \:\:10^7+2.606\times \:\:10^7\:=10^7\times \:\:6.41

Therefore, option C is correct.

What is a Circle ?

A circle is a round figure with all the points lying in the same plane .

It is given that

Tung rotates a square around its horizontal axis of symmetry to make a solid figure.

the shape of the vertical cross section of the solid figure will be a circle that can be seen in the image attached

The rotation image is also attached and the horizontal axis is taken as straight to show the formation of a circle.

Therefore Option A is the right answer.

Your principal surprises you by buying your class a turtle. He brings the turtle to your class along with a sheet from the pet s
Nitella [24]
The height of the tank must be at least 1 foot, or 12 inches. We know the floor area (which is length x width) must be at least 400 inches. Therefore these minimum dimensions already tell us that the minimum volume is 400 x 12 = 4800 cubic inches. Since we have a maximum of 5000 cubic inches, the volume must be within the range of 4800 - 5000 cubic inches.

We can set the height at exactly 1 ft (or 12 inches). Then we can select length and width that multiply to 400 square inches, for example, L = 40 inches and W = 10 in. This gives us a tank of dimensions 40 x 10 x 12 = 4800 cubic inches, which fits all the criteria.
