<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>

It wants you to come up with three events. You'll place them on the line right above, where you think they would go.

For example, if your first event was "seeing a unicorn" you would plot it by "impossible." Some things have a fifty fifty chance, or are likely, like you finding a penny. Use any scenario you can think of. How likely is it that it would come true?

IMPORTANT PLEASE!! 10 POINTS :)
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The domain is all the possible inputs for this function. The range is all the possible outputs for this function.

The line starts at the <em>x-value</em> of 0 and ends at the <em>x-value</em> of 12. Therefore, your domain is D: [0, 12].

The line starts at the <em>y-value</em> of 9000 and ends at the <em>y-value</em> of 0. Therefore, your range is R: [0, 9000].

Right triangles are similar. Always Sometimes Never
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Always

Step-by-step explanation:

Right triangles are always similar.

All right triangles have a 90 degree angle.

This means that, they would all look visually similar because of the 90 degree angle.

What are the values of a and b?
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

<h2>a = 400/21, b = 580/21</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Small triangles are similar. Therefore, the sides are proportional

\dfrac{a}{20}=\dfrac{20}{21}               <em>cross multiply</em>

21a=(20)(20)       <em>divide both sides by 21</em>

a=\dfrac{400}{21}

For b, we can use the Pythagorean theorem:

b^2=\left(\dfrac{400}{21}\right)^2+20^2\\\\b^2=\dfrac{160000}{441}+400\\\\b^2=\dfrac{160000}{441}+\dfrac{176400}{441}\\\\b^2=\dfrac{336400}{441}\to b=\sqrt{\dfrac{336400}{441}}\\\\b=\dfrac{\sqrt{336400}}{\sqrt{441}}\\\\b=\dfrac{580}{21}
