In this question, you are given the width( 20 miles), the length(28 miles) and the height( 1 inch). You are asked to count the rain water volume which was going with formula length x width x height. But the unit asked is ft, so you need to convert them all. The calculation would be:

Water volume= length x width x height
Water volume= 20 miles x 5280ft/miles x 28 miles x 5280ft/miles x 1inch x 1ft/12inch
Water volume = 1300992000 cubic ft.

As we know 1 miles = 5280 feet.
Firstly we will convert everything into feet.

So Length = 28 miles =  28 * 5280 feet = 147,840 feet

Width = 20 miles = 20 * 5280 feet = 105,600 feet.

Depth = 1 inch=  1 * 1/12 feet = 1/12 feet
(because 1 inch = 1/12 feet)

So Volume = Length * Width * Depth
                   = 147840 * 105600 * 1/12 = 1300,992,000 cubic feet.

So we can say 1300,992,000 cubic feet rain fell.

Draw at least six different sized rectangles that have an area of 64 square units
olga_2 [115]

Let

x------> the length of the rectangle

y------> the width of the rectangle

we know that

The area of a rectangle is equal to

A=x*y

A=64\ units^{2}

so

x*y=64 --------> equation 1

let's assume different values of x to get the different values of y

<u>case 1)</u> For x=64 units

substitute in the equation 1

x*y=64

y=64/x

y=64/64

y=1\ units      

the dimensions of the rectangle are 64 units x 1 unit

see the draw in the attached figure N 1

<u>case 2)</u> For x=32 units

substitute in the equation 1

x*y=64

y=64/x

y=64/32

y=2\ units

the dimensions of the rectangle are 32 units x 2 units

see the draw in the attached figure N 2

<u>case 3)</u> For x=16 units  

substitute in the equation 1

x*y=64

y=64/x

y=64/16

y=4\ units

the dimensions of the rectangle are 16 units x 4 units

see the draw in the attached figure N 3

<u>case 4)</u> For x=30 units

substitute in the equation 1

x*y=64      

y=64/x

y=64/30

y=\frac{32}{15} =2\frac{2}{15} \ units

the dimensions of the rectangle are 30 units x 2 (2/15) units

see the draw in the attached figure N 4

<u>case 5)</u> For x=40 units

substitute in the equation 1

x*y=64    

y=64/x

y=64/40

y=1.60\ units

the dimensions of the rectangle are 40 units x 1.60 units

see the draw in the attached figure N 5

<u>case 6)</u> For x=60 units

substitute in the equation 1

x*y=64    

y=64/x

y=64/60

y=\frac{16}{15} =1\frac{1}{15} \ units

the dimensions of the rectangle are 60 units x 1 (1/15) units

see the draw in the attached figure N 6

Please simplify this ITS URGENT !!
frutty [35]

Answer:

5 {x}^{2}  - 4x -  3

Step-by-step explanation:

(8 {x}^{2}  - 5x + 1) - (3 {x}^{2}  - x + 4) \\  = 8 {x}^{2}  - 5x + 1 -  3{x}^{2}  + x - 4 \\  = 5 {x}^{2}  - 4x - 3
