8. A teacher is cutting along the diagonal of a rectangular piece of construction
1 answer:
Answer:
The length of the diagonal is 13.90 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be remolded as calculating the length of the diagonal of a rectangle with dimensions 11 inches by 8.5 inches.
The diagonal refers to that length that runs from one inner edge of the rectangle to the other inner edge of the rectangle.
To calculate this length, we shall be making use of the Pythagoras’ theorem
Please check attachment for the kind of figure i’m trying to paint.
Let’s call the diagonal D
Using the Pythagoras’ theorem,
D^2 = 11^2 + 8.5^2
D^2 = 121 + 72.25
D^2 = 193.25
D = √193.25
D = 13.90 inches

Answer:
y =
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is cubic
It has roots as -4, -4 , 6
this means the value of x = -4, -4 , 6 which makes the entire equation zero
so we have solutions as
x+4 = 0
x+4 = 0
x- 6 = 0
on forming a cubic equation using these
(x+4)(x+4)(x-6)
the equation passes through (2,36)
put x = 2
(2+4)(2+4)(2-6) = (6)*(6)*(-4)
which exceeds 36 so we product the equation with -1/4 to get 36
Final equation
y =
y =
