Hi! I'm having trouble with my algebra homework. The second question (b) confused me, I don't understand what they are asking or

what to do. Can you please help me? Thanks!
question:

You are looking to carpet your bedroom. The area of your rectangular bedroom is given by the expression A=10x^2-50x.

a. What is the GCF of the binomial?

(I'm pretty sure the answer is 10 you don't have to help me with this.)

b. If the length of your bedroom is "five times x", what is the width?

(This is what is confusing me, please help.)

c. If the length of your bedroom is the GCF in part (a), what is the width?

A

Don't forget that you can also pull out an x besides the 10. The expression should look like this.

A(x) = 10x(x - 5)

The GCF is 10x

B

The area of the Bedroom = 10x ( x - 5)

If the length = 5x then the width is

A/L = 10x (x - 5)/(5x)= 2*(x - 5)

C

Now they are changing the Length to the GCF. We determined in A that the GCF = 10x

This time A/L = 10x(x - 5)/10x = (x - 5)

So the width = x - 5

Determine whether the events are independent (I) or dependent (D). Place your answer in the blank provided. 1. Ramiro draws a ma
Stels [109]

Answer:

Independent events

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Ramiro draws a marble from a jar without replacement and then flips a coin

Let E_1 be the event that Ramiro draws a marble without replacement and;

Let E_2 be the event of flipping a coin.

Let's have an analogy so that we can better understand the concept of independent and dependent events.

Consider a random experiment in which a marble is drawn from a jar without replacement and a fair coin is flipped together.

The event E_1  does not in any way affect the event E_2  of a head or a tail showing up in  a flip of a coin.

Therefore, we say that E_1  and E_2   are independent events.

Suppose the event  E_1  affects or influence the event E_2  , then we can say they are dependent events.

Braden biked 10 8/9 miles on Monday. On Tuesday, he biked 3/ 4 as far as Monday. How many total miles did he bike over the two d
torisob [31]

Answer:

19 1/18 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

For Tuesday's ride we need to multiply 10 8/9 by 3/4.

10 8/9 = (9*10+8) / 9 =  98/9 miles.

98 / 9  * 3/4

= 98/3 * 1/4

49/6

= 8 1/6 miles.

Total miles over 2 days = 10 8/9 + 8 1/6

= 18 + 8/9 + 1/6

= 18 +  48/54 + 9/54

= 18 57/54

= 19 3/54

= 19 1/18 miles.

(10x - 4)=20<br> Question: What value of x makes the equation true
liraira [26]

Answer:

x = 10.4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Multiply each side by 5 to remove it as a fraction

2. it cancels out on the left leaving 10x - 4 = 100

3. Add 4 to each side canceling it out on the left and leaving 10x = 104

4. Divide each side by 10 to get x by itself

5. 10x/100 = 104/10

6. x = 10.4
