Answer:

3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

(2 + 2x)(3 + 2x) = 72

4x² + 4x + 6x + 6 - 72 = 0

4x² + 10x - 66 = 0

2x² + 5x - 33 = 0

Using quadratic formula:

x = (-5-17)/4, (-5+17)/4

x = 12/4 = 3

3x+-6+2 &gt; = 5x -8......can someone please solve this
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

x ≤ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If you referencing ">=" as greater than or equal to, follow the solution below:

Solve:

3x - 6 + 2 ≥ 5x - 8

Combine like terms.

3x - 4 ≥ 5x - 8

Subtract 5x from both sides.

-2x - 4 ≥ -8

Add 4 to both sides.

-2x ≥ -4

Divide both sides by -2, while flipping the inequality as well since you're dividing by a negative number.

x ≤ 2

Your answer would be x ≤ 2

A store sells mugs. Each mug costs the same amount. During a sale, the store reduces the price of each mug by $1.75. Wen spends
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

  • $7.39

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial price be x

<u>Then the reduced price is </u>

  • x - 1.75

<u>If 5 mugs cost $28.20, we have equation:</u>

  • (x - 1.75)*5 = 28.20
  • x - 1.75 = 28.20/5
  • x - 1.75 = 5.64
  • x = 1.75 + 5.64
  • x = 7.39

Initial price for 1 mug was $7.39

Determine whether the integral from -3 to infinity 1/sqrt (5 - x) is divergent or convergent. If it is convergent, evaluate it.
BigorU [14]

It's divergent because 1/√(5 - <em>x</em>) is defined only for <em>x</em> < 5, which means the integral from 5 to infinity doesn't exist.
