A rectangle has a perimeter of 16p centimeters. It has a width of 2p centimeters. Find the length of the rectangle in terms of p

If the width is 2p then the width of both sides is 4p. Subtract that from the total perimeter and you get 16p-4p= 12p. Divide that by two because there are 2 side lengths. So, one side length is 6p.

In a rectangle, we know that opposite sides are congruent (the same size). So, if you add the width of one side and the width of the other, you get 4. Then, you would subtract 4 from 16, which is 12. Next, divide 12 by 2 to get 6, the other 2 congruent sides of a rectangle. As a result, the length of the rectangle is 6 centimeters.

Work: w = width. width = 2
16 - 2(w) = l

16 - 2(2) = l

16 - 4 = 1

12 = l

6 = l

For how many integers $n$ is it true that $\sqrt{n} \le \sqrt{4n - 6} < \sqrt{2n + 5}$?

ale4655 [162]

$\bf \sqrt{n}\leqslant \sqrt{4n-6}$

$\bf \sqrt{n}< \sqrt{2n+5}\implies \stackrel{\textit{squaring both sides}}{n< 2n+5}\implies 0\leqslant 2n - n + 5 \\\\\\ 0 < n+5\implies \boxed{-5 < n} \\\\\\ \stackrel{-5\leqslant n < 2}{\boxed{-5}\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}0\rule[0.35em]{3em}{0.25pt}2}$

namely, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1. Excluding "2" because n < 2.

A student is asked to find a polynomial f(x) of degree four with the zeros 2, -3, 0, and -7. What factors would the student mult

lord [1]

Answer:

(x-2), (x+3),x and (x + 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the zeros of the polynomial are 2, -3, 0 and -7.

Let’s consider a case of a quadratic equation where x = 5 is a solution. This means that x + 5 is a factor of that quadratic equation.

Now, let’s apply same approach to this polynomial. If x = 2 is a solution, then x -2 is a factor. If x = -3, then, x + 3 is a factor. If x = 0, this means x itself is a solution and lastly, if x = -7 is a solution, that means x + 7 is a factor.

Thus, the factors to multiply together are; (x-2), (x+3),x and (x + 7)
