The equation A = x(x-4) describes the area, A, of a rectangular flower garden, where x is the width in feet.

Answer:

The flower garden width would be 6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 12 ft^2 = x(x + 4) becomes:

x^2 + 4x - 12 = 0, or (by completing the square) x^2 + 4x + 4 - 4 - 12 = 0

Thus, we have (x + 2)^2 - 16 = 0, or (x + 2)^2 = 16

Taking the square root of both sides yields x + 2 = ±4.

In this context only a positive x value makes sense:  x = 2 + 4  =>  x = 6.

The flower garden width would be 6 ft.  The other dimension would be 6 - 4, or 2, ft.

I need help with this math question
givi [52]

Answer:

a.) y = 3/(2ˣ)

b.) y = 1/(2ˣ)

c.) y = (π^π)ˣ

d.) y = (1/27)(1/√(3))ˣ

e.) y = .002908/(.119025ˣ)

f.) y = .00000004808/(.0413ˣ)

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept need to know is:

  • a negative exponent will flip the numerator with the denominator
  • a fraction as an exponent is just a root. so if the exponent is x^(1/2) then the root is 2 and x^(1/3) is a cube root
  • adding and subtracting exponent is the same thing as multiplying the same base.
  • so x^(1+2) = (x^1)(x^2)
  • and x^(1-2) = (x^1)(x^-2)

A regression was run to determine whether there is a relationship between hours of tv watched per day(x) and number of sit-ups a
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the regression model :

Y=ax+b

x = Hours of TV watched per day

y= number of sit-ups a person can do

A=-1.341

B=32.234

Y = - 1.341x + 32.234

Predict Y, when x = 11

Y = - 1.341(11) + 32.234

Y = −14.751 + 32.234

Y = 17.483

Hence, the person Cann do approximately 17 sit-ups
