Answer:

Jamal is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

3:4 is equivalent to 9:12, not 18:12.

We can see that for 3:4, the left side is less than the right, but for 18:12, left side is greater than the right, which immediately tells us the ratios are not equivalent.

Answer:

-0

Step-by-step explanation:

W = -3

X = 3

Z = -9

Y = 6

-3 + 3 = 0

-9 + 6 = -3

-3 + 0 = -3

Then -3 is closest to -0! Cause when rounding, 4 and under as an example as 24 the round will be 20! And 25 will be 30

Prove the quotient rule. hint: you can do this directly, but it may be easier to find the derivative of 1/x and then use the cha

Bess [88]

The quotient rule is
d(u/v) = (u dv - v du) / u2

d(u/v) can written as
d( u (1/v) )

Using the product rule and chain rule
d( u (1/v)) = u d(1/v) + (1/v) du
= u (-1/v2) dv + (!/v) du
= (u dv - v du) / u2

The length of a rectangle is 5 meters less than twice the width. If the area of the rectangle is 273 meters, find the dimensions

AleksandrR [38]

The length of the rectangle = 16 meters

The width of the rectangle = 10.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The Area of the rectangle is 273.

Step 1 :

Let, the width of the rectangle be 'x'

The length of the rectangle is 2x - 5

Step 2 :

Area of the rectangle = length $\times$ width

273 = (2x - 5) x

273 = 2x^2 - 5x

Step 3 :

The equation formed is 2x^2 - 5x -273 = 0

a= coefficient of x^2 = 2

b= coefficient of x = -5

c = constant = -273

Find the roots of the equation, to find the width.

Step 4 :

Find the roots using factorizing method,

ac = 2 $\times$ -273 = -546 and b= -5

Factorizing -546 as -26 $\times$ 21

The product of -26 $\times$ 21 = -546

The sum of -26 + 21 = -5

Step 5 :

The roots of the equation 2x^2 - 5x -273 = 0 are x= -26/2 and x= 21/2

The values of x are x= -13 and x= 10.5

Since the width cannot be a negative value, neglect x= -13

Step 6 :

Therefore,

The width of the rectangle = 10.5 meters

The length of the rectangle = 2x-5

= 2(10.5) - 5

= 21 - 5

length = 16 meters
