Answer:

16 feet in length.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this situation, you are given the area and the width of the full carpet, furthermore, you must reverse the formula for area to find the length, as so:

<u>Area Formula</u>: A=<em> l • w</em>

<u>Given</u>: 136= <em>l</em> • 8.5

<em>l</em> = 136 ÷ 8.5

<em>l</em> = 16 feet

I hope this was helpful!

Check the picture below.

now, an angle bisector I assume, since it intersects the opposite segment at D and then at E.  An angle bisector cuts an angle in two equal halves, so if ∡CAB is 82°, that just means that ∡CAE is one of those halves, or 41°.

Find the degree of the polynomial<br><br> 7a3b2 – 2a4 + 4b – 15<br><br> Degree
vesna_86 [32]
When ur polynomial has more then one variable....and this one does...the degree is the highest term degree

7a^3b^2 ....this term has a degree of 5
2a^4...this term has a degree of 4
4b....this term has a degree of 1
15....this term has a degree of 0

so the highest degree term has a degree of 5....so that is the degree of this polynomial.

now if u just had 1 variable, the degree would be the highest exponent
