Answer: D.-6 and F.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rational number : \dfrac{(x-3)(x+6)}{(x+7)}

To find : The value of x  , where the  rational expression becomes equal zero.

Let's check all the options :

A. 7

At x= 7  , \dfrac{(7-3)(7+6)}{(7+7)}=\dfrac{26}{7}\neq0

B. -7

At x= 7 ,  \dfrac{(-7-3)(-7+6)}{(-7+7)}=\dfrac{10}{0}=\infty\neq0

C. 6

At x= 6 ,  \dfrac{(6-3)(6+6)}{(6+7)}=\dfrac{36}{13}\neq0

D. -6

At x= -6 , \dfrac{(-6-3)(-6+6)}{(-6+7)}=\dfrac{0}{1}=0

E. -3

At x= -3 ,   \dfrac{(-3-3)(-3+6)}{(-3+7)}=\dfrac{-9}{2}\neq0

F. 3

At x= 3 , \dfrac{(3-3)(3+6)}{(3+7)}=0

Thus, at x= -6 and 3 , the rational expression equals to zero .

So , the correct options are : D.-6 and F.3

If we assume you mean (x-3)(x+6)/(x+7), the expression is zero when the numerator factors are zero: at x=3 and x=-6.

Appropriate choices are ...

  • D. -6
  • F. 3

Given that (x+2) is a factor of x^3+8, find the other quadratic factor.
Semmy [17]
If you know the formular a^3+b^3=(a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2), you can solve this problem.
8 is 2 cubed, so x^3+2^3=(x+2)(x^2-2x+4)
so the other quadratic factor is x^2-2x+4

"A rectangle has a height of 5 cm and its base is increasing at a rate" of 3/2 cm/min. When its area is 60 cm2, at what rate is
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The diagonal is increasing at the rate of 119/104cm/min of the given rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of the rectangle

Height = 5cm

Rate of base = 3/2 cm/min

Area = 60cm^2

We know the area of a rectangle of given by = base* Height

b*h = 60

b*5 = 60

b = 12cm

Applying Pythagoras theorem while drawing a diagonal to the rectangle

  b^2 +h^2 =  D^2\\

 5^2 +12^2 = 13^2

so our diagonal will be 13cm  

Upon differentiating the area of the rectangle  we get

b*h = A=60cm^2

using  the chain rule of differentiation

h*db/dt + b*dh/dt  = 0

b*dh/dt = -h*db/dt

12*dh/dt = -5*3/2

dh/dt = -5/8 cm//min

so the height of the rectangle is decreasing at the rate of -5/8cm/min

now we have all the measurements we need

b = 12 , db/dt = 3/2cm/min

h = 5 , dh/dt = -5/8 cm/min

b^2 +h^2  = D^2

Upon differentiating we get

2b*db/dt + 2h*dh/dt = 2D*dD/dt

b*db/dt + h*dh/dt = D*dD/dt

12*3/2 + 5*(-5/8) = 13*dD/dt

18 -25/8 = 13*dD/dt

\frac{144-25}{8} = 13*dD/dt

dD/dt = \frac{119}{104} cm/min

Therefore the diagonal is increasing at the rate of 119/104cm/min of the given rectangle.
