dedylja [7]

Answer:

Final answer is 1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question says that Mrs Jenkins picked some tomatoes from her garden. She used 5/9 of the tomatoes to make pasta sauce. After that  she used 3/4 of the remainder to make a salad. Now we need to find about what fraction of the tomatoes did Mrs Jenkins use to make the salad.

As she used 5/9 of the tomatoes to make pasta sauce.

Now remaining amount of tomatoes = 1- 5/9 = 9/9 -5/9 = 4/9

Then she used 3/4 of the remainder to make a salad. So fraction of the tomatoes did Mrs Jenkins use to make the salad = (4/9)(3/4)=12/36=1/3

Hence final answer is 1/3.

The area of a rectangle is 72 cm square. The length of the rectangle is 6 cm longer than the width. What is the width of the rec
miskamm [114]

The correct option will be :  B) 6 cm.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Suppose, the width of the rectangle is x cm.

As, the length is 6 cm longer than the width, so the length will be: (x+6) cm.

<u>Formula for the Area of rectangle</u> is: (Length)*(Width)

Given that, the area of a rectangle is 72 cm²

So....

x(x+6)=72\\ \\ x^2+6x-72=0\\ \\ (x+12)(x-6)=0

Using zero-product property, we will get...

x+12=0\\ x= -12 <em>(Negative value is ignored as width can't be negative)</em>

and

x-6=0\\ x=6

So, the width of the rectangle is 6 cm.

Given f(x) = 2x^2 -3x and g(x) = x+4
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

2x³ + 5x² - 12x

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer doesn't seem to be listed...

(fg)(x) = (2x² - 3x)(x + 4)

Which equals...

2x²(x) + 2x²(4) + (-3x)(x) + (-3x)(4)

Which simplifies to...

2x³ + 8x² - 3x² - 12x

     2x³ + 5x² - 12x
