Write a real-world problem that could be represented by the following inequality. 70 + 5x < 30 + 15x
kondaur [170]

Justin wants to paint his room. So he put together some quotations from two different painters. The first painter's total charge was based on the number of hours (denoted as x) worked was modeled as f( x ) = 70 + 5 x, while that of the second painter was g( x ) = 30 + 15 x. Justin knows that it will take more than 4 hours to decorate the house so he was certain to go with the first painter whose cost is low-priced when the number of hours is above 4 hours.

A box has a volume of 308 cm cubed. Its height is 4 cm greater than its length. Its length is 3 cm greater than its width. What
kifflom [539]

Answer:

4 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A box has a volume of 308 cm cubed.

Its height is 4 cm greater than its length.

Its length is 3 cm greater than its width.

Question asked:

What is the width of the box?

<u>Solution</u>:

Let width  = x\ cm

Length = x+3\ cm

Height = x+3+4=x+7\ cm

<u>As we know:</u>

<u />Volume\ of\ box=length\times width\times height

308=(x+3)\times x\times(x+7)\\ \\ 308=(x^{2} +3x)(x+7)\\ \\ 308=x^{2} (x+7)+ 3x(x+7)\\ \\ 308=x^{3} +7x^{2} +3x^{2} +21x\\ \\ 308=x^{3} +10x^{2} +21x\\ \\ Subtract\ 308\ from\ both\ sides\\ \\ x^{3} +10x^{2} +21x-308=0\\ \\ factor\ left\ side\ of\ equation\\ \\ (x-4)(x^{2} +14x+77)=0\\ \\  Set\ factors\ equal\ to\ 0.\\ \\ x-4=0 \ or\  x^{2} +14x+77=0\\ \\ \\

As width can never be in negative, x= 4\ cm

By substituting the value:-

Width  = x\ cm = 4 cm

Thus, width of the box is 4 cm.

ALL MY QUESTIONS GETTING IGNORED PLS HELP
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

a scale drawing means all the sides are multiplied by the same amount. to find this amount, you can divide the larger side by the bigger side by the smaller side.

15/5 = 3

12/4 = 3

therefore the scale factor is 3. to get the value of x, multiply the value of the third side by 3.

3*3=9

x=9

klemol [59]
Part a b2+49−(b−7)2

Distribute:

=b2+49+−b2+14b+−49

Combine Like Terms:

=b2+49+−b2+14b+−49

=(b2+−b2)+(14b)+(49+−49)

=14b

Answer:

=14b
part b

(2a+6b)2−24ab

Distribute:

=4a2+24ab+36b2+−24ab

Combine Like Terms:

=4a2+24ab+36b2+−24ab

=(4a2)+(24ab+−24ab)+(36b2)

=4a2+36b2

Answer:

=4a2+36b2
