Let x represent length of the stringer of the staircase.

We have been given that a  builder makes staircases where each step is 29 cm long and rises 18 cm so people don't trip. Every staircase has a stringer - a diagonal support connecting all the steps. We are asked to find the length of the stringer of the staircase.

The length of the stringer of the staircase will be equal to diagonal of right triangle with two legs 29 cm and 18 cm.

Using Pythagoras theorem, we will get:

x^2=29^2+18^2

x^2=841+324

x^2=1165

Now we will take square root of both sides of equation.

\sqrt{x^2}=\pm\sqrt{1165}

x=\pm 34.13209

x\approx \pm 34.13

Since length cannot be negative, therefore, the length of the stringer of the staircase would be approximately 34.13 cm.

Find the measure of an angle between 0 and 360 that is coterminal with -120
AURORKA [14]

Answer:to find the equivalent positive angle of a negative angle, just add 360 to it until it becomes positive and is between 0 and 360 degrees. -110 + 360 = 250. 250 degree angle and -110 degree angle are coterminal


Step-by-step explanation:to find the equivalent positive angle of a negative angle, just add 360 to it until it becomes positive and is between 0 and 360 degrees. -110 + 360 = 250. 250 degree angle and -110 degree angle are coterminal

for these scenarios, write equations or inequalities that reflect the relationship. The minimum number of hours required to rent
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

100 + 35x \geq 280 is the inequality that reflect the relationship.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Charge for rental =   $100

Additional charge =  $ 35

Minimum amount that can be spent =  $280

To Find:

equations or inequalities that reflect the relationship = ?

Solution:

Let x be the minimum number of hours

then the charge will  be

100  + (number of hours)(additional cost per hour)

That is

100 + 35x

Now the minimum charge amount is $280 So, The charge can be 280 or more than 280

100 + 35x \geq 280

Divide f(x) by d(x), and write a summary statement in the form indicated.
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The correct option is B)  f(x) =(x^2+1)(x^2+4x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided function.

f(x) = x^4 + 4x^3 + 6x^2 + 4x + 5 and d(x) = x^2+1

We need to divide f(x) by d(x)

As we know: Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder

In the above function f(x) is dividend and divisor is d(x)

Divide the leading term of the dividend by the leading term of the divisor:\frac{x^4}{x^2}=x^2

Write the calculated result in upper part of the table.

Multiply it by the divisor: x^2(x^2+1)=x^4+x^2

Now Subtract the dividend from the obtained result:

(x^4 + 4x^3 + 6x^2 + 4x + 5)-(x^4-x^2)=4x^3+5x^2+4x+5

Again divide the leading term of the obtained remainder by the leading term of the divisor: \frac{4x^3}{x^2}=4x

Write the calculated result in upper part of the table.

Multiply it by the divisor: 4x(x^2+1)=4x^3+4x

Subtract the dividend:

(4x^3+5x^2+4x+5)-(4x^3+4x)=5x^2+5

Divide the leading term of the obtained remainder by the leading term of the divisor: \frac{5x^2}{x^2}=5

Multiply it by the divisor: 5(x^2+1)=5x^2+5

Subtract the dividend:

(5x^2+5)-(5x^2+5)=0

Therefore,

Dividend = x^4 + 4x^3 + 6x^2 + 4x + 5

Divisor = x^2+1

Quotient = x^2+4x+5

Remainder = 0

Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder

f(x) = (x^2+1)(x^2+4x+5)

Hence, the correct option is B)  f(x) =(x^2+1)(x^2+4x+5)
