Answer:

The width is .16 miles and the length is .3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the area formula for a rectangle and the fact that the length = .14 + w.  Your formula will look like this then:

.048 = w(.14 + w)

Distribute through the parenthesis to get

.048=.14w+w^2

Get everything on one side of the equals sign and set the whole equal to 0:

0=w^2+.14w-.048

Let's multiply everything by 1000 to get rid of those decimals:

0=1000w^2+140w-48

Now we need to factor that to solve for w:

w = .16 and w = -.3

Since the two things in math that will never ever be negative are distance measures and time, we can safely disregard the -.3.  That means that the width is .16 and the length is ,16 + .14 which is .3.  There you go!

If my diameter is 20.6ft how would i get my radius,area,circumference?
sveta [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius is half of the diameter

Circumference is 2*pi*radius

Area is pi*radius^2

So r (radius)= 10.3

C (circumference)=64.72

and A (area)=333.29

If F(x)=x^3-2x^2, which expression is equivalent to f(I) -2+i,-2-i,2+i,2-i
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

2 - i

Discussion:

Evaluate F(x) = x^3 - 2 x^2 when x = i.

i^2 = -1 for i^3 = i ( i^2) = i (-1) = -i

So F(i) =  (i)^3 - 2 (i)^2                      

          =   -i     - 2(-1)

          = -i      +  2

          =  2      -  i


which is the last answer shown


Thank you,

MrB
