Answer:
Answer:
The width is 4 units, and the length is 10 units.
Step-by-step.
Step-by-step explanation:
area of rectangle = length * width
Let L = length; let W = width.
"The length is 6 units greater than the width.": L = W + 6
area = LW = 40
Since L = W + 6, we substitute L with W + 6.
(W + 6)W = 40
W^2 + 6W = 40
W^2 + 6W - 40 = 0
(W - 4)(W + 10) = 0
W - 4 = 0 or W + 10 = 0
W = 4 or W = -10
A width cannot be a negative number, so we discard the solution W = -10.
W = 4
L = W + 6 = 4 + 6 = 10
The width is 4 units, and the length is 10 units.
Answer:
Because the dashed triangle is smaller than the original it's a reduction. The scale factor is 1/3 because if we look at the altitudes of the triangle, the original is 6 and the dilated is 2 and 2 / 6 = 1 / 3.
B) 36
To figure this out you need to average the numbers. To average them you add them all up and divide by how many are there.
(60+30+20)/3
(90+20)/3
110/3
36
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
use Area=pi * 
diameter is 2 * r
so r = 5
pi * 
= 78.5398
Area * height = volume
78.5398 * 17 = 1335.18
the cylinder holds about 1335 
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² - 10x = - 36
Solve using the method of completing the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(- 5)x + 25 = - 36 + 25
(x - 5)² = - 11 ( take the square root of both sides )
x - 5 = ± 
( add 5 to both sides )
x = 5 ± i
Thus
x = 5 - i
or x = 5 + i
