Selling price = cost + 0.42*cost = 1.42*cost
cost = selling price/1.42

cost = $9182/1.42 ≈ $6466.20

Find the dimensions of an American football field. The length is 200 ft more than the width, and the perimeter is 1,040 ft. Find

natka813 [3]

Answer:

The width of the football field is 160 feet.

The length of the football field is 360 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent width of the football field.

We have been given that the length is 200 ft more than the width, so the length of the field would be $w+200$ .

We are also told that the perimeter is 1,040 ft. We know that football field is in form of rectangle, so perimeter of field would be 1 times the sum of length and width. We can represent this information in an equation as:

$2(w+w+200)=1040$

Let us solve for w.

$2(2w+200)=1040$

$4w+400=1040$

$4w+400-400=1040-400$

$4w=640$

$\frac{4w}{4}=\frac{640}{4}$

$w=160$

Therefore, the width of the football field is 160 feet.

Upon substituting $w=160$ in expression $w+200$ , we will get length of field as:

$w+200\Rightarrow 160+200=360$

Therefore, the length of the football field is 360 feet.

Find a polynomial with zeros at x=2,x=-1 and x=0

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

f(x) = x^3 - x^2 -2x

Step-by-step explanation:

If x = a is a zero of a polynomial, then x-a is a factor of the polynomial. Given the factors of a polynomial, the polynomial can be obtained by multiplying the factors.

The factors of the given polynomial are;

x - 2

x + 1

x

Multiplying the first two factors;

(x-2)(x+1) = x^2 + x -2x -2

= x^2 -x -2

We finally multiply this result by x to obtain our polynomial;

f(x) = x ( x^2 -x -2)

= x^3 - x^2 -2x

which is a cubic polynomial since it has 3 roots.

Given \qquad m \angle LONm∠LONm, angle, L, O, N is a straight angle. \qquad m \angle MON = 8x - 13^\circm∠MON=8x−13 ∘ m, angle,

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

<h3> $\boxed{99°}$ </h3><h3 />

Step-by-step explanation:

m<MON = 8x - 13°

m<LOM = 7x - 17°

To find : m <MON

First, we have to find the value of x :

Create an equation

$\mathrm{8x - 13 + 7x - 17 = 180}$ ( sum of angle in straight line )

Collect like terms

$\mathrm{15x - 13 - 17 = 180}$

Calculate

$\mathrm{15x - 30 = 180}$

Move constant to R.H.S and change its sign

$\mathrm{15x = 180 + 30}$

Calculate the sum

$\mathrm{15x = 210}$

Divide both sides of the equation by 15

$\mathrm{ \frac{15x}{15} = \frac{210}{15} }$

Calculate

$\mathrm{x = 14}$

Now, let's find the value of m<MON

$\mathrm{8x - 13}$

Plug the value of x

$\mathrm{ = 8 \times 14 - 13}$

Calculate the product

$\mathrm{ = 112 - 13}$

Calculate the difference

$\mathrm{ = 99}$ °

Hope I helped!

Best regards!
