Answer:

B. 3 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for surface area is:

2lw+2lh+2wh

Box F's surface area is just plugging in those variables

2(3)(3)+2(3)(3)+2(3)(3)=54

Box J's surface area is the same way

2(2)(4.5)+2(2)(3)+2(4.5)(3)=57

The difference is 57-54=3

The answer is B. 3 square ft

The length of a rectangle is 6 feet more than three times the width of the

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

<h2>width = 6 feet</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

let l be the length of the rectangle

let w be the width of the rectangle

The statement

The length of a rectangle is 6 feet more than three times the width of the

rectangle is written as

l = 6 + 3w

From the question

l = 24 feet

Substitute the value into the above formula and solve for the width

That's

24 = 6 + 3w

3w = 24 - 6

3w = 18

Divide both sides by 3

w = 6

Therefore

<h3>width = 6 feet</h3>

Hope this helps you

Constance wants to purchase an school jacket. She saw the same jacket at a few stores. Store A had the jacket for 15% off the or

soldi70 [24.7K]

Store A will be the better buy.

The price will be $53.70 after sales tax at store A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of Jacket at store A = $59.60

Discount = 15%

Discount Amount = $\frac{15}{100}*59.60\\$

Discount Amount = $0.15*59.60=\$8.94$

Price after discount = Original price - Discount amount

Price after discount = 59.60 - 8.94 = $50.66

Price of Jacket at store B = $50.99

The price at store A becomes less than store B after discount, therefore, buying from store A is better.

Sales tax = 6%

Sales tax amount = $\frac{6}{100}*50.66$

Sales tax amount = $0.06*50.66=\$3.0396$

Price after sales tax = Discount price at store A + Sales tax amount

Price after sales tax = 50.66 + 3.0396 = $53.6996

Rounding off to nearest hundredth;

Price after sales tax = $53.70

The price will be $53.70 after sales tax at store A.

What is the minimum value of 2x + 2y in the feasible region?<br> (0,7) (3,7) (6,3) (6,0)

topjm [15]

Graph the feasible region for the following constraints: x + y < 5. 2x + y > 4 ... y = 10/3. x = 30/3 - 10/3 = 20/3. Intersects at (20/3, 10/3). -x + 2y = 0. x - 2y = 0.
hence i would go for

Help me out please, im only typing this much because its making me...

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

B. $x^{2} +2x-8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the best method to solve is by substituting the end values of the set in each option , otherwise it will a time consuming problem.

Now substitute x=-4 in all the options

A. $x^{2} -2x-8$

16+8-8=16>0

so out of option A and C option C is correct.

B. $x^{2} +2x-8$

16-8-8=0 which means for the values of x>-4 $x^{2} +2x-8$ is less than 0

Now substitute x=2 in all the options

A. $x^{2} -2x-8$

4-4-8=-8<0 . so option A and C both are incorrect.

B. $x^{2} +2x-8$

4+4-8=0 which means for the values of x<2 $x^{2} +2x-8$ is less than 0

Therefore the correct option is B
