Svetach [21]

to increase each dimension by equal lengths so that its area triples is 12 feet.

The given dimensions are 18 feet by 15 feet.

We need to find how much should each dimension increase.

Shaquana wants to increase each dimension by equal lengths so that its area triples.

Let the increased length be x.

So, length =18+x feet and width=15+x feet.

As we know, the area of a deck=Length×Width

The original area of a deck=18×15=270 square feet.

Now, the new area of a deck=(18+x )×(15+x)=3×270

⇒270+15x+18x+x²=810 square feet

⇒x²+33x-540=0

Here, a=1, b=33 and c=-540 in $x=\frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^{2-4ac} } }{2a}$ .

⇒ $x=\frac{-33\±\sqrt{33^{2} -4 \times (-540)} }{2 \times 1}$

⇒ $x=\frac{-33\±\sqrt{1089 +2160} }{2 \times 1}=\frac{-33\±57}{2}$

⇒x=-45 or x=12

Length can not be a negative integer.

Therefore, to increase each dimension by equal lengths so that its area triples is 12 feet.

Ivy corporation gave 90 people a bonus. If ivy had given 8 more people bonuses, ivy would have rewarded 2/3 of the workforce. Ho

sukhopar [10]

Hey! Hope that I can help.

With the info you've given me, I know that 98 people is 2/3 of their workforce. Divide that by 2 to get 1/3, and then multiply that number by 3 to get your answer.

98 / 2 = 49 x 3 = 147
Answer: 147 people

As a 42.4 foot long pipe comes off the manufacturing line it is cut into 0.80 foot long sections. How many smaller sections are

Ludmilka [50]

53 smaller sections are created from the larger pipe

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of smaller section will be obtained by dividing the length of long pipe by the length of small section.

Given

Length of long pipe= 42.4 feet

Length of small section = 0.80 foot

$Total\ number\ of\ sections=\frac{Length\ of\ large\ pipe}{length\ of\ one\ small\ section}\\=\frac{42.4}{0.80}\\=53$

53 smaller sections are created from the larger pipe

Question 1 of 16

irga5000 [103]

None of the alternatives are correct. The domain's lower bound is 6, however it contains 6, therefore a bracket is required rather than a parenthesis. [6 (infinity)] Because infinity is not included, a bracket for infinity is invalid. The range is from 0 to infinity. assuming you meant 1/sqr (x-6). However, none of the options are right if you meant 1/(sqr(x) - 6).

or did you mean 1/sqrx - 6? However, none of them are correct.
