<em>The dimensions of the cardboard to make a box without a lid is 11 inches by 11 inches.</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In this problem, we have that Isabelle is using a square piece of cardboard to make a box without a lid. She cuts 2-inch squares from each corner and folds up the edges. The figure below shows this statement. The finished box has a volume (V) of 98 cubic inches, in other words:

V=98in^3

When folding up, we get the box without lip shown in the second figure. So the volume would be:

V=2xx \\ \\ V=2x^2 \\ \\ But: \\ \\ V=98 \\ \\ Then: \\ \\ 2x^2=98 \\ \\ x^2=49 \\ \\ x=\sqrt{49} \\ \\ x=7in

Since te cardboard is square, then the side (s) is given by:

s=2+x+2 \\ \\ s=2+7+2 \\ \\ s=11in

Therefore:

<em>The dimensions of the cardboard to make a box without a lid is 11 inches by 11 inches.</em>

A circle has a radius of 10 inches. Find the approximate length of the arc intersected by a central angle of 2pi/3
Aloiza [94]
You can solve this problem and calculate the arc lenght, by applying the following formula:

 s=θr

 s: it is the arc lenght.
 θ: it is the central angle (θ=2π/3).
 r: it is the radius of the circle (r=10 inches).

 When you substitute these values into the formula, you obtain the arc lenght (s):

 s=θr
 s=(2π/3)(10)

 Then, you have that the value of the arc lenght is:

 s=20.94 inches

Is the binomial a factor of the polynomial function?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

YES

NO

NO

Step-by-step explanation:

The given polynomial is: $ f(x) =  x^3 + 4x^2 - 25x - 100 $

(x - a) is a factor of a polynomial iff x = a is a solution to the polynomial.

To check if (x - 5) is a factor of the polynomial f(x), we substitute x = 5 and check if it satisfies the equation.

∴ f(5) = 5³ + 4(5)² - 25(5) - 100

        = 125 + 100 - 125 - 100

        = 225 - 225

        = 0

We see, x = 5 satisfies f(x). So, (x - 5) is a factor to the polynomial.

Now, to check (x + 2) is a factor.

i.e., to check x = - 2 satisfies f(x) or not.

f(-2) = (-2)³ + 4(-2)² - 25(-2) - 100

      = -8 + 16 + 50 - 100

     = -108 + 66

     ≠ 0

Therefore, (x  + 2) is not a factor of f(x).

To check (x - 4) is a factor.

∴ f(4) = 4³ + 4(4)² - 25(4) - 100

        = 64 + 64 - 100 - 100

        = 128 - 200

        ≠ 0

Therefore, (x - 4) is not a factor of f(x).
