Answer:
L = 18 and w = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a rectangle is found by A = l*w. Since the length here is 2 more than the width or 2 + w and the width is w, substitute these values and A = 288 to solve for w.
To solve for w, move 288 to the other side by subtraction. Then factor and solve.
Set each factor equal to 0 and solve.
w - 16 = 0 so w = 16
w + 18 = 0 so w = -18
Since w is a side length and length/distance cannot be negative, then w = 16 is the width of the rectangle.
This means the length is 16 + 2 = 18.
Answer: x < 8/9
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is 4 * (2x +1) * 4.5 = 50, since the volume is found by multiplying the length, width, and height together, and the =50 part is because our volume can't go above 50 cubic units.
We can simplify 4 * (2x+1) * 4.5 by multiplying 4 and 4.5, which is 18, and then multiplying both 2x and 1 by 18. We get 36x + 18, and we put in the =50, so it is 36x+18=50.
Next, we can subtract 18 from both sides of the equation, giving us 36x = 32.
We then divide the equation by 36 so that we have the x by itself, and we get x = 32/36, which can be simplified to 8/9.
What we're left with is x = 8/9, meaning plugging in 8/9 for the equation would give us 50. However the problem says that the volume must be below 50, so our actual answer is x < 8/9.
For this question, we're going to use the law of cosines.
The law of cosines is the following equation:
We know the values of a, b, and c. We want to find the measure of angle A.
Now, plug in these values into the equation.
Add both sides by
and subtract both sides by 16
Divide both sides by 36
Take the inverse cosine, or arc cosine, of both sides.
Using a calculator, you'll get the following result.
The measure of angle A should be 36.3 degrees. Hope this helps! :)
