Choices:
<span>a. 7 in. x 11 in.            c. 8 in. x 13 in.
b. 16 in. x 20 in.          d. 6 in. x 9 in.
</span>
Area of a rectangle = length * width

We need to get the factors of 104 in² and identify which is its length and width.

1 x 104 = 104
2 x   52 = 104
4 x   26 = 104
8 x   13 = 104  This is the correct dimension of the front of the box.

Choice C. 8 inches x 13 inches

A 90° angle is divided into 2 angles.
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

this angle's sum is 90°

(3x+40)°+(4x-6)=90°

7x+34=90°

7x=90-34

7x=56

x=56/7

x=8

3x+40 = 3×8+40 = 64°

4x-6 = 4×8-6 = 26°

Help with Pre Calculus
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

The first option

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain of a rational function should be all real numbers except for when the denominator is equal to 0. To find when the denominator is equal to 0 you simply need to find the zeroes of the denominator... but in this case you can do that through factoring and using the quadratic equation.

So first step is going to be to factor out the GCF, which in this case is x. This gives you the equation. x(2x^2-x-15). So one of the zeroes is when x=0. Now to find the other two zeroes you can use the quadratic equation which is x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\. So to find the other zeroes you simply plug the values in. a=2, b=-1, c=-15

x=\frac{-(-1)\pm\sqrt{(-1)^2-4(2)(-15)}}{2(2)}\\\\x=\frac{1\pm\sqrt{1-4(2)(-15)}}{4}\\\\x=\frac{1\pm\sqrt{121)}}{4}\\\\x=\frac{1\pm11}{4}\\\\x=\frac{12}{4}\\x=3\\\\x=\frac{-10}{4}\\x=-\frac{5}{2}

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Given:

At a college, the tuition increased by 10%. Let b be the former cost of tuition.

Use the expression b + 0.10b for the new cost of tuition.

To find:

The equivalent expression by combining like terms.

Solution:

We have,

b + 0.10b

On combining the like terms, we get

b + 0.10b=1.10b

Therefore, the required equivalent expression is 1.10b.
