Answer:
24 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
The length of the rectangle is 6 times the side of a cement square.
Now, this rectangle is formed from 6 squares;
The total area of the path of this square = 96 square feet;
The area of each square now = 96/6 = 16 square feet
Recall that:
Area of a square = S²
where S is the side length
16 = S²
S =
S = 4 ft
The length of the path in feet now is: L × w
= 6 × 4
= 24 feet.
Answer:
x >= -7 ................(1a)
x >= 3 ...............(2a1)
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = .............(0)
find the domain.
To find the (real) domain, we need to ensure that each term remains a real number.
which means the following conditions must be met
x+7 >= 0 .....................(1)
AND
x^2+2x-15 >= 0 ..........(2)
To satisfy (1), x >= -7 .....................(1a) by transposition of (1)
To satisfy (2), we need first to find the roots of (2)
factor (2)
(x+5)(x-3) >= 0
This implis
(x+5) >= 0 AND (x-3) >= 0.....................(2a)
OR
(x+5) <= 0 AND (x-3) <= 0 ...................(2b)
(2a) is satisfied with x >= 3 ...............(2a1)
(2b) is satisfied with x <= -5 ................(2b1)
Combine the conditions (1a), (2a1), and (2b1),
x >= -7 ................(1a)
AND
(
x >= 3 ...............(2a1)
OR
x <= -5 ................(2b1)
)
which expands to
(1a) and (2a1) OR (1a) and (2b1)
( x >= -7 and x >= 3 ) OR ( x >= -7 and x <= -5 )
Simplifying, we have
x >= 3 OR ( -7 <= x <= -5 )
Referring to attached figure, the domain is indicated in dark (purple), the red-brown and white regions satisfiy only one of the two conditions.
