Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

8(n + 2)(n + 4) = 1,144

FOIL

8(n^2 +2n+4n+8) = 1144

Divide each side by 8

8/8(n^2 +2n+4n+8) = 1144/8

(n^2 +2n+4n+8) = 143

Combine like terms

n^2 +6n+8 = 143

Subtract 143 from each side

n^2 +6n+8 -143= 0

Combine like terms

n^2 +6n -135 =0

Factor

What two terms multiply to -135 and add to 6

-9*15 =-135

-9+15 = 6

(n-9) (n+15) =0

Using the zero product property

n-9 =0    n+15=0

n = 9   n=-15

The length cannot be negative so n = -15 cannot be  a solution

n =9

Answer:

n = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

8(n + 2)(n + 4) = 1,144

(n + 2)(n + 4) = 143

n² + 2n + 4n + 8 = 143

n² + 6n - 135 = 0

n² + 15n - 9n - 135 = 0

n(n + 15) - 9(n + 15) = 0

(n - 9)(n + 15) = 0

n = 9, -15

since n is a length, it can not be negative

Therefore the only solution is n = 9

Which equation is of a line is parallel to -2x + 3y = 15
Marta_Voda [28]

y=\frac{2}{3} x is the required equation.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Equation of line is given as, -2x + 3y = 15

Now we have to write the equation in y = mx+ b form, where m is the slope and b is the y- intercept.

So the above line can be written as,

3y = 2x+ 15

Dividing both sides by 3 we will get,

y=\frac{2}{3} x+\frac{15}{3}

y=\frac{2}{3} x+5 is the equation of the given line

If a line is parallel to the given line then its slope must be the same, so the equation of line parallel to the given line is,

y=\frac{2}{3} x is the required equation.

A large can of tomato soup was $4.40 for 22 ounces while the smaller can was $1.80 for 10 ounces. which can of soup has the best
topjm [15]
To find the answer to this problem, all you have to do is divide the price of the product by the number of ounces. So to find the price per ounce of the large can of tomato soup, you divide 4.40 by 22, which equals .20 cents per ounce. For the smaller can, you divide 1.80 by 10, which equals .18 cents per ounce. So the smaller can has the best price per ounce.

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

It's the first option.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = cos x transformed  to cos (x - π/2) moves  the graph  π/2 units to the right.

Multiplying by 3 to give 3 cos(x -  π/2)  stretches the graph 3 units parallel to the y-axis and adding 3 to this moves the graph up 3 units.

So the required equation is y = 3(cos x -  π/2) + 3.
