Answer:

$12

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to do this is with a simple ratio. If you pay $3 for one meter, then for 4 meters, you’d pay $12. You BOUGHT 4 times more cord, which means you’d PAY 4 times more. Thus, 3 x 4 = 12!

Or with ratios:

1 meter : $3

multiplying both sides by 4

4 meters : $12

Consider the following division of polynomials.
Bond [772]

x^4=x^2\cdot x^2. Multiplying the denominator by x^2 gives

x^2(x^2+2x+8)=x^4+2x^3+8x^2

Subtracting this from the numerator gives a remainder of

(x^4+x^3+7x^2-6x+8)-(x^4+2x^3+8x^2)=-x^3-x^2-6x+8

-x^3=-x\cdot x^2. Multiplying the denominator by -x gives

-x(x^2+2x+8)=-x^3-2x^2-8x

and subtracting this from the previous remainder gives a new remainder of

(-x^3-x^2-6x+8)-(-x^3-2x^2-8x)=x^2+2x+8

This last remainder is exactly the same as the denominator, so x^2+2x+8 divides through it exactly and leaves us with 1.

What we showed here is that

\dfrac{x^4+x^3+7x^2-6x+8}{x^2+2x+8}=x^2-\dfrac{x^3+x^2+6x-8}{x^2+2x+8}

=x^2-x+\dfrac{x^2+2x+8}{x^2+2x+8}

=x^2-x+1

and this last expression is the quotient.

To verify this solution, we can simply multiply this by the original denominator:

(x^2+2x+8)(x^2-x+1)=x^2(x^2-x+1)+2x(x^2-x+1)+8(x^2-x+1)

=(x^4-x^3+x^2)+(2x^3-2x^2+2x)+(8x^2-8x+8)

=x^4+x^3+7x^2-6x+8

which matches the original numerator.

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

3 metres

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the pathway be x

Area: (9+2x)(4+2x)

36 + 8x + 18x + 4x²

4x² + 26x + 36

Increased area is 150:

4x² + 26x + 36 = 150

4x² + 26x - 114 = 0

2x² + 13x - 57 = 0

2x² + 19x - 6x - 57 = 0

x(2x + 19) - 3(2x + 19) = 0

(x - 3)(2x + 19) = 0

x = 3, x = -19/2

Lines that meet or cross each other to form square corners are called ______.
Viefleur [7K]

The lines that intersect to form square corners that are right angles are called: C. perpendicular lines.

<h3>What are Perpendicular Lines?</h3>

Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect each other at a point and forms for square corners that are right angles at that point of intersection.

An example of perpendicular lines is shown in the image attached below.

Thus, the lines that meet to form right angles are called: C. perpendicular.
