<span>1. Question 1: The area of a rectangular carpet is given by the trinomial 5x^2 - 3x - 14. What are the possible dimensions of the carpet? Use factoring.

Answer: 5x^2 -3x  -14

Explanation:

You might probe the different pairs of factors given in the answer choices to check wich product is equal to the oirginal polynomial or you can factor from zero.

I will show  you how to factor that polynomial from zero:

1) given: 5x^2 - 3x - 14

2) multiply and divide by the leading coefficient =>

5 [5x^2 - 3x  -14 ]
----------------------
         5

3) Enter the the factor 5 inside the parenthesis:

5.5x^2 - 5.3x - 5.14
--------------------------
              5

4) rearrange conviniently to show (5x) as a common factir of the first two terms

(5x)^2 - 3(5x) - 70
--------------------------
              5

5) factor the numerator using 5x as common term of the two binomials:

(5x  ) ( 5x   ) <----> open the parenthesis
(5x - ) (5x + ) <-----> include the signs
(5x - 10) (5x + 7)  <---> two numbers that add up - 3 and their product is  - 70

=>

(5x - 10)(5x + 7)
---------------------
         5

6) divide (5x - 10) by 5 => x - 2

7) factored expression

(x - 2) (5x + 7)

8) Conclusion: the answer is the option B. (5x + 7) and (x - 2)


2. Question 2.  The area of a rectangular barnyard is given by the trinomial 6x^2 + 7x – 20. What are the possible dimensions of the barnyard? Use factoring

Answer: </span><span><span>option C. (2x + 5)(3x - 4)</span>

Explanation:

The procedure is the same of the question 1.

1) given: 6x^2 + 7x - 20

2) multiply numerator and denominator by 6 and rearrange to show (6x) as common factor ot the first two terms =>

(6x)^2 + 7(6x) - 120
--------------------------
              6
3) factor the numerador using 6x as common factor ot two binomials, and simplify:

(6x + )(6x - )
(6x + )(6x - )
(6x + 15) (6x - 8)

=>

(6x + 15)(6x -8)
---------------------
           6

(6x + 15)(6x - 8)
---------------------- =
        3.2

(6x + 15)      (6x - 8)
------------- .  ------------ =
      3                2

(2x + 5)(3x - 4)

4) answer: option C. (2x + 5)(3x - 4)</span>

Answer:

  1. see below

  2. g(x) is f(x) translated left 2 and down 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The graphs are attached. F(x) is in red; g(x) is in blue.

__

2. The graph of g(x) = f(x -h) +k is the parent function translated by (h, k). Here we have (h, k) = (-2, -3), so g(x) is f(x) translated left 2 and down 3.

The population of Illinois in 2000 was about 1.57 times its population in 1940. If the population of Illinois in 1940 was about
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer: 12.4Million

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the term we are looking for

Therefore;

Population in 2000 = x

Population in 1940 = 7.9Million

Recall population in 2000 is 1.57 times population in 1940

Therefore

1.57 * x = 7.9

x = 7.9m * 1.57

x = 12.403

Rounding off to the nearest tenth in Millions

= 12.4Million

Hope this helps
