Quadrilateral ABCD is similiar to quadrilateral EFGH. The lengths of the three longest sides in quadrilateral ABCD are 24 feet,

16 feet, and 12 feet long. If the two shortest sides of quadrilateral EFGH are 9 feet long and 18 feet long, how long is the 2nd longest side on quadrilateral EFGH?

The two quadrilaterals are given similar .

In any similar figure sides are in proportion.The second largest side of quadrilateral ABCD is 16 ft .Let the second longest side of quadrilateral EFGH be x ft. These sides will be in proportion to each other .

The second shortest side of quadrilateral EFGH that is GF will be proportional to the third longest side of quadrilateral ABCD that is BC

We can form a proportion with the proportional sides:

\frac{16}{x} =\frac{12}{18}

To solve for x we cross multiply

12x=(16)(18)

12x=288

Dividing both sides by 12 we get

x=24.

The second longest side of quadrilateral EFGH is 24 ft.

Guys please solve this problem I’ve been trying but I can’t solve it. I’m begging
Drupady [299]

Answer: 0.40 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 13 = 7x - 15

15 - 13 = 7x - 3x

2 = 5x

2/5 = x

0.40 = x

Using the equation y = 3x – 5, what would the output be for an input of 4
SSSSS [86.1K]
The input is the x-coordinate and the output is the y-coordinate. If the input is 4, plug 4 into the x variable to find the output, y.

y=3(4)-5
y=12-5
y=7

The output is 7.

Simplify:<br> (4p3 + 6p2 – 7) – (8p? – 7 – 3p)
Kipish [7]

Answer:

4p3 + 6p2 - 8p - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "p2"   was replaced by   "p^2".  1 more similar replacement(s).

STEP

1

:

Equation at the end of step 1

 (((4 • (p3)) +  (2•3p2)) -  7) -  8p

STEP

2

:

Equation at the end of step

2

:

 ((22p3 +  (2•3p2)) -  7) -  8p

STEP

3

:

Checking for a perfect cube

3.1    4p3+6p2-8p-7  is not a perfect cube

Trying to factor by pulling out :

3.2      Factoring:  4p3+6p2-8p-7

Thoughtfully split the expression at hand into groups, each group having two terms :

Group 1:  -8p-7

Group 2:  4p3+6p2

Pull out from each group separately :

Group 1:   (8p+7) • (-1)

Group 2:   (2p+3) • (2p2)

3.3    Find roots (zeroes) of :       F(p) = 4p3+6p2-8p-7

Polynomial Roots Calculator is a set of methods aimed at finding values of  p  for which   F(p)=0  

Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers  p  which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers

The Rational Root Theorem states that if a polynomial zeroes for a rational number  P/Q   then  P  is a factor of the Trailing Constant and  Q  is a factor of the Leading Coefficient

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is  4  and the Trailing Constant is  -7.

The factor(s) are:

of the Leading Coefficient :  1,2 ,4

of the Trailing Constant :  1 ,7

Let us test ....

  P    Q    P/Q    F(P/Q)     Divisor

     -1       1        -1.00        3.00    

     -1       2        -0.50        -2.00    

     -1       4        -0.25        -4.69    

     -7       1        -7.00       -1029.00    

     -7       2        -3.50        -77.00    

     -7       4        -1.75        3.94    

     1       1        1.00        -5.00    

     1       2        0.50        -9.00    

     1       4        0.25        -8.56    

     7       1        7.00        1603.00    

     7       2        3.50        210.00    

     7       4        1.75        18.81    

Final result :

 4p3 + 6p2 - 8p - 7
