What is the difference between dividing 16 by 2 and finding the square root of 16

Mathematics

KIM [24]3 years ago
5 0

16 ÷ 2 = 8

In this equation, you split 16 into 2 equal parts, which are 8 and 8.

The \sqrt{16}, however, is finding what number times itself makes 16. The answer is 4 in this case. 4 x 4 = 16

You get 2 different answers (2 and 4). They are two different operations.

The polynomial x 3 + 5x 2 - ­57x -­189 expresses the volume, in cubic inches, of a shipping box, and the width is (x+3) in. If t
Ipatiy [6.2K]
V=x^3+5x^2-57x-189
Width: W=(x+3) in = 15 in →x+3=15
Solving for x:
x+3-3=15-3→x=12

With x=12 the Volume would be:
V=(12)^3+5(12)^2-57(12)-189
V=1,728+5(144)-684-189
V=1,728+720-684-189
V=1,575

V=W*D*H
Depth: D
Height: H
with H>D

V=1,575; W=15
Replacing in the equation above:
1,575=15*D*H
Dividing both sides by 15
1,575/15=(12*D*H)/15
105=D*H
3*5*7=D*H
D<H
If D=5→H=3*7→H=21
If D=7→H=3*5→H=15

Answer: Option <span>C. height: 21 in. depth: 5 in.
