Answer:

width =4.5ft

length=6ft

Step-by-step explanation:

w = x

L = 2x-3

area = L*w

27 = x(2x-3)

$27=2x^{2} -3x$

$2x^{2} -3x-27=0$

$2x^{2} +6x-9x-27=0$

2x(x+3)-9(x+3)=0

(2x-9)(x+3)=0

2x-9=0

2x=9

x=9/2

x=4.5

L=2x-3=2*4.5-3 =9-3=6

Which expression is equivalent to 64x^3-343

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

B: (4x - 7)(16x^2 + 28x + 49)

Step-by-step explanation:

64x^3-343 can be rewritten as 4^3x^3 - 7^3 or (4x)^3 - 7^3. This is the difference of two cubes. The appropriate formula for factoring such is

a^3 - b^3 = (a - b)(a^2 + ab + b^2). Therefore,

our (4x)^3 - 7^3 = (4x - 7)(16x^2 + 28x + 49). This is Answer B.

which of the following represents the equation of the line with an x- intercept of 6 that passes through the point (4,4)?

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

$y=-2x+12$

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line, find the slope between two points. Substitute two points into the slope formula. If the equation has an x-intercept of 6 then the line passes through the point (6,0). Use (6,0) and (4,4) in the formula.

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{4-0}{4-6} =\frac{4}{-2} =-2$

Since m = -2, substitute its value and the point (6,0) into the point slope form. Then simplify.

$y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y-0 = -2 (x-6)\\y=-2x+12$
