Answer:

(0, 7]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the width W and the length L.  The length is 18 feet more than the width, so:

L = W + 18

The area can be no more than 175, so:

A ≤ 175

LW ≤ 175

Since L = W + 18:

(W + 18) W ≤ 175

W² + 18W ≤ 175

W² + 18W - 175 ≤ 0

(W - 7) (W + 25) ≤ 0

-25 ≤ W ≤ 7

However, the width of the table can't be nonpositive, so:

0 < W ≤ 7

Or in interval notation, (0, 7].

Rewrite the equation 2x+6x^(2)-1=3x^(2) in standard form and identify a, b, and c.
Fed [463]
Hi there!

2x + 6 {x}^{2}  - 1 = 3 {x}^{2}
First subtract 3x^2 from both sides.

2x + 3 {x}^{2}  - 1 = 0
Now rearrange the equation.

3 {x}^{2}  + 2x - 1 = 0
Finally we can see our answer.

a = 3
b = 2
c =  - 1

What are the x-intercept and y-intercept of the graph of y=13x−6 ?
gtnhenbr [62]
To find the x-int., let y = 0 and solve for x:  13x = 6, so x = 6/13:  (6/13, 0)

To find the y-int., let x =0 and read off the y-int:  (0, -6)

One tank is filling at at a rate of 3/4 gallon per 2/3 minutes. A second tank is filling at a rate of 5/8 gallon per 1/2 minutes
VMariaS [17]
3/4 times 3/2 (reciprocal of the second fraction) is 9/8 gallons per minute.
5/8 times 2/1 (reciprocal of the second fraction) is 10/8 gallons per minute

The second tank is filling faster.

Rewrite the equation by completing the square.<br>x^2-2x+1=0​
kaheart [24]

Answer:

(x - 1)² = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 2x + 1 = 0 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

x² - 2x = - 1

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 1)x + 1 = - 1 + 1

(x - 1)² = 0
