Larger pets need to be transported in larger portable kennels. Using a graphing calculator and the relationship between the widt

h, length, and height, find the dimensions of a portable kennel whose volume is 7.4 ft3. The dimensions of a portable kennel can be expressed as width x, length x + 0.4, and height x − 0.2? What are the dimensions of a portable kennel with a volume of 7.4 ft3? Use a graphing calculator to solve. Round the dimensions to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

width: 1.9 ft
length: 2.3 ft
height: 1.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectilinear shape is given by ...

V = W·L·H . . . . . where W, L, and H represent width, length, and height

Filling in the given information, we want to find a solution to ...

7.4 = x(x +0.4)(x -0.2)

If we write ...

f(x) = x(x +0.4)(x -0.2)

Then we're looking for the value of x that satisfies ...

f(x) -7.4 = 0

The attached graph shows that value to be 1.897, about 1.9 (feet). Then the desired kennel dimensions are ...

width: 1.9 ft
length: 2.3 ft
height: 1.7 ft

On the 7th day.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mold doubles, so on the 7th day, the mold would be half-there.

I used the 8th day's description to figure this out.

Part A: Create a third-degree polynomial in standard form. How do you know it is in standard form? (5 points)

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

(See explanation for further details)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let consider the polynomial $p(x) = 5\cdot x^{3} +2\cdot x^{2} - 6 \cdot x +17$ . The polynomial is in standards when has the form $p(x) = \Sigma \limit_{i=0}^{n} \,a_{i}\cdot x^{i}$ , where $n$ is the order of the polynomial. The example has the following information:

$n = 3$ , $a_{0} = 17$ , $a_{1} = -6$ , $a_{2} = 2$ , $a_{3} = 5$ .

b) The closure property means that polynomials must be closed with respect to addition and multiplication, which is demonstrated hereafter:

Closure with respect to addition:

Let consider polynomials $p_{1}$ and $p_{2}$ such that:

$p_{1} = \Sigma \limits_{i=0}^{m} \,a_{i}\cdot x^{i}$ and $p_{2} = \Sigma \limits_{i=0}^{n}\,b_{i}\cdot x^{i}$ , where $m \geq n$

$p_{1}+p_{2} = \Sigma \limits_{i=0}^{n}\,(a_{i}+b_{i})\cdot x^{i} + \Sigma_{i=n+1}^{m}\,a_{i} \cdot x^{i}$

Hence, polynomials are closed with respect to addition.

Closure with respect to multiplication:

Let be $p_{1}$ a polynomial such that:

$p_{1} = \Sigma \limits_{i=0}^{m} \,a_{i}\cdot x^{i}$

And $\alpha$ an scalar. If the polynomial is multiplied by the scalar number, then:

$\alpha \cdot p_{1} = \alpha \cdot \Sigma \limits_{i = 0}^{m}\,a_{i}\cdot x^{i}$

Lastly, the following expression is constructed by distributive property:

$\alpha \cdot p_{1} = \Sigma \limits_{i=0}^{m}\,(\alpha\cdot a_{i})\cdot x^{i}$

Hence, polynomials are closed with respect to multiplication.

H (t) = 2t - 2 g(t) = 4t + 5 Find (h(g(t))

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

$h(g(t))=8t+8$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the two functions:

$h(t)=2t-2\text{ and } g(t)=4t+5$

And we want to find:

$h(g(t))$

So, by substitution, we acquire:

$h(g(t))=2(4t+5)-2$

Distribute:

$h(g(t))=8t+10-2$

Simplify:

$h(g(t))=8t+8$
