A piece of cloth is folded into a square with a side length measuring x inches. When it is unfolded, it has an area of x2 + 27x

+ 162 square inches.
Which could be the dimensions of the rectangular piece of cloth when it is unfolded? Remember, the area of a rectangle can be determined using the formula A = lw.

length = (x + 9) inches and width = (x + 3) inches
length = (x − 3) inches and width = (x − 9) inches
length = (x + 18) inches and width = (x + 9) inches
length = (x − 9) inches and width = (x − 18) inches

Hello,

(x+9)(x+3=x²+21+27 No
(x-3)(x-9)=x²-12x+27 No

(x+18)(x+9)=x²+27x+162 Yes
(x-9)(x-18)=x²-27x+162 No

Answer C

we have

x^{2} + 27x + 162

Using a graph tool------> to resolve the second order equation

the solution is

x=-18\\ x=-9

so

x^{2} + 27x + 162=(x+18)*(x+9)

therefore

the answer is the option

length = (x + 18) inches and width = (x + 9) inches

The quadratic function below has an axis of symmetry through x = -4; a vertex at (-4, -9) and zeroes at x = -7 and x = 0.
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Here (h, k) = (- 4, - 9), thus

y = a(x + 4)² - 9

To find a substitute the coordinates of the zero (- 7, 0) into the equation.

0 = a(- 7 + 4)² - 9, that is

0 = 9a - 9 ( add 9 to both sides )

9a = 9 ( divide both sides by 9 )

a = 1, thus

y = (x + 4)² - 9 ← expand factor using FOIL

y = x² + 8x + 16 - 9

y = x² + 8x + 7

A random sample of 20 purchases showed the sample mean of $48.77 and the sample standard deviation s is $17.58. How large is the
laila [671]

Answer:

<h2>$5.03</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data          

Sample Mean (M):  $48.77  

Sample Size (n): 20

Standard Deviation (σ) :  $17.58

Confidence Level: 80%

 we know that z*-Values for 80% Confidence  Levels is 1.28

the expression for margin of error is given bellow\

MOE= z*σ/√n

We can now substitute into the expression and solve for the MOE as

MOE= 1.28*17.58/√20

MOE= 22.502/4.47

MOE= 22.502/4.47

MOE= 5.03

The margin of error for a 80 % confidence interval is $5.03
