Answer:

1. d

2. c

Step-by-step explanation:

1. "You have a 12in by 14in picture you framed.  When you hung the picture, you found that the area is 261.44 square inches.  What is the width of the frame?"

If we call the width of the frame x, then the total width is w = 12 + 2x, and the total height is 14 + 2x.  Area is width times height, so:

A = wh

261.44 = (12 + 2x) (14 + 2x)

Distribute using FOIL (first outer inner last):

261.44 = 12×14 + 12×2x + 2x×14 + 2x×2x

261.44 = 168 + 24x + 28x + 4x²

261.44 = 168 + 52x + 4x²

0 = 4x² + 52x − 93.44

0 = x² + 13x − 23.36

Solve with quadratic formula:

x = [ -b ± √(b² − 4ac) ] / 2a

x = [ -13 ± √(169 + 93.44) ] / 2

x = (-13 ± 16.2) / 2

x = 1.6 or -14.6

Since x must be positive, x = 1.6 inches.

2. "A flower garden has been design with an L shaped walkway and viewing area around two sides as shown.  The garden itself is 5 yards by 8 yards.  The total area needed to build this landscape design is 60.9525 square yards.  What is the width of the walkway?"

If we call the width of the walkway x, then the total width is w = 5 + x and the total length is l = 8 + x.  Area is width times length, so:

A = wl

60.9525 = (5 + x) (8 + x)

Distribute using FOIL (first outer inner last):

60.9525 = 5×8 + 5×x + x×8 + x×x

60.9525 = 40 + 5x + 8x + x²

60.9525 = 40 + 13x + x²

0 = x² + 13x − 20.9525

Solve with quadratic formula:

x = [ -b ± √(b² − 4ac) ] / 2a

x = [ -13 ± √(169 + 83.81) ] / 2

x = (-13 ± 15.9) / 2

x = 1.45 or -14.45

Since x must be positive, x = 1.45 yards.

 what is 16/10 as a mixed number in simplest form. I don't get it?
Ivenika [448]
16/10 as a mixed number is 1 6/10.

I got this answer by finding out how many times 10 goes into 16, evenly. I got 1, and put that as a whole number. 6 was leftover, so I put that for the numerator. Then, I kept the denominator same, which was 10.


1 6/10 simplified is 1 3/5.

I got this answer by finding out what number goes both into 10 and 6, evenly. The GCF, or Greatest Common Factor, was 2. I divided 6 by 2 and 10 by 2. I then got 3 and 5.
3 was the numerator, and 5 is the denominator.

Again, 16/10 in simplest form is 1 3/5.

Write in descending powers of “x” 6x^4+15x^3y2+3x^2y^3
Wewaii [24]

(6x^4) + (15x^3)(y^2) + (3x^2)(y^3) is your answer

As we are looking at descending powers of x. Look at the powers of the x. In the first one (6x^4), the power is 4, and 4 is greater than the other numbers given (3 & 2). Therefore, the order given above is correct.

hope this helps
