Answer:

length = x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

area = x² + 8x + 15 and area = length × width

We require to factorise x² + 8x + 15

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 15) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 8)

The factors are + 5 and + 3, since

5 × 3 = 15 and 5 + 3 = 8, thus

x² + 8x + 15 = (x + 5)(x + 3)

x + 3 is the width, thus x + 5 is the length

A 17-inch candle is lit and burns at a constant rate of 1.3 inches per hour. Let t represent the number of hours since the candl

Answer

Since the lyla deleted it actually for a good reason let me explain. But you dont just delete random answers, you can give a comment. I can report you for doing that.

So since it burns at 1.3 per hour. Notice that since it gets removed per hour. so it would be 1.3t so it multiplies per hour. Then we need to subtract. Thats because it lowers the length of the candle. So we get the original length - 17 and get the function

f(t) = 17-1.3t

Margaret wants to cover a footrest in the shape of a rectangular prism with cotton fabric. The footrest is 18 in. 12 in. 10 in.

user100 [1]

Answer:

No, she cannot completely cover the footrest.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we need to find the total surface area of the prism to be covered using the cotton cloth

the total surface area of the prism is

A = 2wl + 2lh + 2hw,

l is the length of the prism = 18 in,

w= width of the prism = 12 in,

h is the height of the prism = 10 in

hence $A = 2(12 \times 18 ) + 2(18 \times 10) + 2(10 \times 12)=1032in^{2}$

We need to convert the area of the fabric to be in the same unit as that of the prism

Area of cotton fabric = $1 yd^{2}= 1296 in ^{2}$

since the surface area of the foot rest is more than the area of fabric she has, she cannot completely cover the footrest

The perimeter of a rectangle is 16 inches. The equation that represents the perimeter of the rectangle is , where l represents t

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

A. 7 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the perimeter of a rectangle is 16 inches. The equation that represents the perimeter of the rectangle is , where l represents the length of the rectangle and w represents the width of the rectangle.

We know that perimeter of rectangle is 2 times the sum of width and length of rectangle.

$\text{Perimeter}=2(l+w)$

$\text{16 in}=2(l+w)$

$\frac{\text{16 in}}{2}=\frac{2(l+w)}{2}$

$\text{8 in}=l+w$

To be a rectangle length cannot be 8 as length and width of the rectangle is 8 inches.

Therefore, 7 inches the possible value for the length of the rectangle.
