Answer:

a. 85.5 sq ft

b. 3 bottles

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The cardboard is rectangular in shape. How much he needs to paint is the same as the cardboard that he needs to paint.

The area of a rectangle is given as:

A = L * B

where L = length and B = breadth

Therefore, the area of the cardboard having dimensions 14 1/4 feet by 6 feet is:

A = 14 1/4 * 6

A = 57 / 4 * 6 = 85.5 sq feet

He needs to paint 85.5 sq feet of the cardboard.

b. On bottle of paint covers 40 sq feet. The number of bottles he will need for his backdrop will be the area he needs to paint divided by the amount of paint that can cover 40 sq feet:

85.5 / 40 =  2.14

Since the number of bottles he will need is a whole number and its greater than 2, then it must be 3.

To paint the entire cardboard, he must have 3 bottles of paint.

The first step in the process for factoring the trinomial x^2-3x-40 is to
jenyasd209 [6]

(x-8)(x+5)

First thing you do is put the X's into the parentheticals because it is x^2 meaning there are 2 factors with x's. Then, you wonder what factors of -40 could add to get -3. In this case, they are -8 and 5. -8 times 5 is -40 and -8 +5 is -3. Then, you just add -8 and 5 beside the x's in the parentheticals.

17) replace the given number for "x" and evaluate

a) x² + 2x + 1   ; when x = 3

  3² + 2(3) + 1

= 9 + 6 + 1

= 16

b) x² + 2x + 1   ; when x = -4

  (-4)² + 2(-4) + 1

= 16 - 8 + 1

= 9

c) x² + 2x + 1   ; when x = 3

  (-22.872)² + 2(-22.872) + 1

= 523.128384 - 45.744 + 1

= 478.384384

18) The dependent variable is affected by the other variable and is the "output"   The independent variable is the input.

a) y = 3x - 5;    "x" is the independent variable

b) the time of day is the independent variable  (you would input the time of day to calculate the temperature).

19) Let the x-axis represent the length of the lumber cut off and the y-axis represent the length of the lumber remaining.
