36.25 = 8.75*x
36.25/8.75 = x

x = 4.1428571429 feet in length

Answer:

Area of a rectangle(A) is multiply the length by its width.

i.e A = l \times w where l is the length and w is the width of the rectangle respectively

As per the given statement:

The area of the rug is 36 1/4 square feet the rug is 8 3/4.

⇒\text{Area of the rug} = 36\frac{1}{4} = \frac{145}{4}=36.25 square feet.

and

width of a rug(w) = 8\frac{3}{4} =8.75 feet.

By definition of area;

A = l \times w

Substitute the given values we get;

36.25 = 8.75l

Divide both sides by 8.75 we get;

l=4.14285714 feet

Therefore, the length of the rug  is, 4.14285714 feet

qaws [65]
One of the numbers is 399.
It is an odd number that has neither a 1 or a seven, is not divisible by 5 and has a three in the hundreds place.

Another number is 329 which meets all of the requirements. 7 goes into it 47 times

The last number is 343. Seven goes into it 49 times.

Hope this Helps!

Is the graph of y = sin(x^4) increasing or decreasing when x = 10? Is it concave up or concave down?
Tanzania [10]
y=\sin(x^4)
\implies y'=4x^3\cos(x^4)
\implies y'=12x^2\cos(x^4)-16x^6\sin(x^4)

At x=10, you have

y'(10)=4000\cos(10^4)

The trick to finding out the sign of this is to figure out between which multiples of \dfrac\pi2 the value of 10^4 lies.

We know that \cos x>0 whenever -\dfrac\pi2+2n\pi, and that \cos x whenever \dfrac\pi2+2n\pi, where n\in\mathbb Z.

We have

10^4=\dfrac{k\pi}2\implies k=\dfrac{2\times10^4}\pi\approx6366.2

which is to say that \dfrac{6366\pi}2, an interval that is equivalent modulo 2\pi to the interval \left(\pi,\dfrac{3\pi}2\right).

So what we know is that 10^4 corresponds to the measure of an angle that lies in the third quadrant, where both cosine and sine are negative.

This means y'(10), so y is decreasing when x=10.

Now, the second derivative has the value

y'=12\times10^2\cos(10^4)-16\times10^6\sin(10^4)

Both \cos(10^4) and \sin(10^4) are negative, so we're essentially computing the sum of a negative number and a positive number. Given that \sin x>\cos x for \pi, and \cos x>\sin x for \dfrac{5\pi}4, we can use a similar argument to establish in which half of the third quadrant the angle 10^4 lies. You'll find that the sine term is much larger, so that the second derivative is positive, which means y is concave up when x=10.

MissTica
The correct answer is D X=-3, since the directrix is always the opposite distance from the vertex as the focus is.
