Two rectangles have the same width. One is 12 units long and the other is 8 units long. The area of the first rectangle is 320 s

quare units more than the area of the second rectangle. Find the width of each rectangle.

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

let w = the width of the rectangles

then

12w = the area of one rectangle

8w = the area of other

:

12w - 8w = 320

4w = 320

w = 320/4

w = 80 units wide

;

:

Check

12 * 80 = 960

8 * 80 = 640

--------------

difference: 320

Solve <br> f(x)=4x5−8x4+8x2−4x

Goryan [66]

Given:

The function is:

$f(x)=4x^5-8x^4+8x^2-4x$

To find:

The roots of the given equation.

Solution:

We have,

$f(x)=4x^5-8x^4+8x^2-4x$

For roots, $f(x)=0$ .

$4x^5-8x^4+8x^2-4x=0$

$4x(x^4-2x^3+2x-1)=0$

$4x((x^4-1)+(-2x^3+2x))=0$

$4x((x^2+1)(x^2-1)-2x(x^2-1))=0$

On further simplification, we get

$4x(x^2+1-2x)(x^2-1)=0$

$4x(x-1)^2(x+1)(x-1)=0$

$4x(x+1)(x-1)^3=0$

Using zero product property, we get

$4x=0$

$x=0$

Similarly,

$x+1=0$

$x=-1$

And,

$(x-1)^3=0$

$x=1$

Therefore, the zeroes of the given function are $-1,0,1$ and the factor form of the given function is $f(x)=4x(x+1)(x-1)^3$ .

Please help me, so I can help my son

Grace [21]

1:a would be 3. Subtract 9 & 6 to find 3. B= 7. Again 9-2 would help you find the answer. So then it would be 3+6=7+2.
2: 2+8 gets you 10. 10+5 gets you 15. 8+5 gets you 13. 2+13 gets you 15. So it’s 15=15.
3:7 needs to be changed into a fraction so, 7/1(1/7). Multiply across, you get 7/7, which gives you 1, so it’s 1=1.
4:I’m sorry I don’t know how to do this one
5:you multiply 3 and 6x, which gives you 18x. Then multiply 3 and 9y, and you get 27y. So then you have 18x+27y=18x+27y.
6: 15+0 gets you 15. So it’s 15=15.
Hope this helped. I’m not the best at explaining

Step-by-step explanation:

reflexive property states that a number equals itself, a = a, so since 16 = 16, or 16 equals itself, it's reflexive.

We conduct a study to determine whether the majority of community college students plan to vote in the next presidential electio

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

most of the students will vote in the following presidential elections because the p value is lower than the level of statistical significance

Step-by-step explanation:

Alfa=0.05

so we have to

P-value is 0.02

considering that alpha is greater than p

P-value (0.02) < alpha (0.05)

we conclude that the null hypothesis is rejected

Interpretation

Taking the alpha value as the statistical level of significance, it can be said that more than 50% of the students will vote in the following presidential elections.

A published report of a repeated-measures research study includes the following description of the statistical analysis. "The re

balandron [24]

Answer:

3 treatment conditions were compared in the study.

14 individuals participated in the study.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Part (A) How many treatment conditions were compared in the study?

There are two sets of degrees of freedom; one for the numerator and one for the denominator.

F ratio is defined as: $df=(df_{\text{Between treatment}}, df_{error})$

The formula for between treatment is: $df_{\text{Between treatment}}=k-1$

Substitute $df_{\text{Between treatment}}=2$ in above formula.

$2=k-1$

$k=3$

Therefore, 3 treatment conditions were compared in the study.

Part (B) How many individuals participated in the study?

The error degree of freedom is $df_{error}=(k-1)(n-1)$

Substitute $df_{error}=26$ and k=3 in above formula.

$26=(3-1)(n-1)$

$26=2(n-1)$

$14=n$

Hence, 14 individuals participated in the study.
