When thinking about reinforcement, always remember that the end result is to try to increase the behavior, whereas punishment procedures are used to decrease behavior. For positive reinforcement, try to think of it as adding something positive in order to increase a response.

The area of a rectangle is 42 ft squared, and the length of the rectangle is 5 ft more than twice the width. Find the dimensions

stira [4]

Answer:

<h3>Length = 12 ft</h3>

Width = $\frac{7}{2} ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Area of rectangle = $42 \: {ft}^{2}$

Width = X

Length = 2x + 5

Now,

$x(2x + 5) = 42$

$2 {x}^{2} + 5x = 42$

$2 {x}^{2} + 5x - 42 = 0$

$2 {x}^{2} + 12x - 7x - 42 = 0$

$2x(x + 6) - 7(x + 6) = 0$

$(2x - 7)(x + 6) = 0$

Either

$2x - 7 = 0$

$2x = 0 + 7$

$2x = 7$

$x = \frac{7}{2}$

Or,

$x + 6 = 0$

$x = 0 - 6$

$x = - 6$

Negative value can't be taken.

So, width = $\frac{7}{2} ft$

Again,

Finding the value of length,

Length = $2x + 5$

$2 \times \frac{7}{2} + 5$

$7 + 5$

$12$

Length = 12 ft

What is the length of 15,409,000 cubic yard in miles? (to<br> the nearest hundred)

cluponka [151]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The cube root of 15,409,000 = 248.84 yards.

There are 1760 yards in a mile

One edge of a cube = 248.84 / 1760 = .141386 miles.

So a cube would be .00283cubic miles. Your answer does not reach a hundredth place, I don't think.
