Let

L--------> the length side of a rectangle

W--------> the width side of a rectangle

we know that

the area of a rectangle is equal to

A=L*W

A= 120x^{2} + 78x - 90

L=12x+15

To find the width side W of the rectangle we need to find the roots of the equation of the area

so

Equate to zero the area and find the roots

120x^{2} + 78x - 90=0

using a graph tool

see the attached figure

x=-1.25\\ x=0.6

120x^{2} + 78x - 90=120*(x+1.25)*(x-0.6)

120*(x+1.25)*(x-0.6)=6*(4x+5)*(5x-3)

6*(4x+5)*(5x-3)=3*(4x+5)*2*(5x-3)

3*(4x+5)*2*(5x-3)=(12x+15)*(10x-6)

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the width of the rectangle is equal to (10x-6)

The answer will be C. 10x -6
(10x-6)(12x+15)=120x^2+78x-90

AnnyKZ [126]

Notice that

11/12 = 1/6 + 3/4

so that

tan(11π/12) = tan(π/6 + 3π/4)

Then recalling that

sin(x + y) = sin(x) cos(y) + cos(x) sin(y)

cos(x + y) = cos(x) cos(y) - sin(x) sin(y)

⇒   tan(x + y) = (tan(x) + tan(y))/(1 - tan(x) tan(y))

it follows that

tan(11π/12) = (tan(π/6) + tan(3π/4))/(1 - tan(π/6) tan(3π/4))

tan(11π/12) = (1/√3 - 1)/(1 + 1/√3)

tan(11π/12) = (1 - √3)/(√3 + 1)

tan(11π/12) = - (√3 - 1)²/((√3 + 1) (√3 - 1))

tan(11π/12) = - (4 - 2√3)/2

tan(11π/12) = - (2 - √3) … … … [A]

5. Mark's brother is five years older than Mark.
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Mark is M and his brother is B.

M+5=B

M+B=23

Now we can solve using subsitution.

M+M+5=23

(Subtract 5 from both sides)

2M=18

M=9

Hope this helped!

3. Galshore of Maloat is making a journey from the island of Gont to Oranea. The distance from the two lands is 965 miles. Galsh
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

  3.  about 7.48 hours

  4.  about 1.8892 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Both of these questions make use of the relation ...

  time = distance / speed

3. time = (965 mi)/(129 mi/h) ≈ 7.48062 h ≈ 7.48 h

__

4. time = (612.1 mi)/(324 mi/h) ≈ 1.889198 h ≈ 1.8892 h

(We have rounded the time to sufficient precision so that the distance at the given speed rounds to the number given.)

What is the difference between correlation and dependencies?
zheka24 [161]

Dependency: A variable whose value depends on the value assigned to another variable (independent variable).

Correlation: The relationship between two or more variables is considered as correlation. 

 In statistics, when we talk about dependency, we are referring to any statistical relationship between two random variables or two sets of data. Correlation, on the other hand refers to any of a broad class of statistical relationships involving dependence.
