Which expression is equivalent to 36x2 - 25?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Dimas [21]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The equivalent expression is: (6x + 5)*(6x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

This expression is called the difference of two squares.

It has the following format: a^{2} - b^{2}

It is factored as: a^{2} - b^{2} = (a-b)*(a+b)

In this question:

a^{2} - b^{2} = 36x^{2} - 25

So

a^{2} = 36x^{2}, then a = \sqrt{36x^{2}} = 6x

b^{2} = 25, then b = \sqrt{25} = 5

So

The equivalent expression is: (6x + 5)*(6x - 5)

Explain the steps for dividing decimals. Write three or four sentences.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Move the decimal point in the divisor and dividend.

Turn the divisor (the number you’re dividing by) into a whole number by moving the decimal point all the way to the right. At the same time, move the decimal point in the dividend (the number you’re dividing) the same number of places to the right.

Place a decimal point in the quotient (the answer) directly above where the decimal point now appears in the dividend.

Divide as usual, being careful to line up the quotient properly so that the decimal point falls into place.

Line up each digit in the quotient just over the last digit in the dividend used in that cycle.

A cylinder shaped can needs to be constructed to hold 400 cubic centimeters of soup. The material for the sides of the can costs
LenKa [72]

Answer:

The dimensions of the can that will minimize the cost are a Radius of 3.17cm and a Height of 12.67cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the Cylinder=400 cm³

Volume of a Cylinder=πr²h

Therefore: πr²h=400

h=\frac{400}{\pi r^2}

Total Surface Area of a Cylinder=2πr²+2πrh

Cost of the materials for the Top and Bottom=0.06 cents per square centimeter

Cost of the materials for the sides=0.03 cents per square centimeter

Cost of the Cylinder=0.06(2πr²)+0.03(2πrh)

C=0.12πr²+0.06πrh

Recall: h=\frac{400}{\pi r^2}

Therefore:

C(r)=0.12\pi r^2+0.06 \pi r(\frac{400}{\pi r^2})

C(r)=0.12\pi r^2+\frac{24}{r}

C(r)=\frac{0.12\pi r^3+24}{r}

The minimum cost occurs when the derivative of the Cost =0.

C^{'}(r)=\frac{6\pi r^3-600}{25r^2}

6\pi r^3-600=0

6\pi r^3=600

\pi r^3=100

r^3=\frac{100}{\pi}

r^3=31.83

r=3.17 cm

Recall that:

h=\frac{400}{\pi r^2}

h=\frac{400}{\pi *3.17^2}

h=12.67cm

The dimensions of the can that will minimize the cost are a Radius of 3.17cm and a Height of 12.67cm.

a survey found that 40% of Shoppers at Max a Mart like chocolate ice cream is 20 Shoppers likes chocolate ice cream how many peo
taurus [48]
Let the total number of people surveyed by y. 
we can solve this by using algebra.

to find the percentage of a number in terms of decimals or integers, just multiply the total by the percentage,
so with this question, 
y x 40% = 20
shift x40% to the other side and turn it into /40%
y = 20 / 40%
change the percentage into decimals for easier calculations,
y = 20 / 0.4
y = 50

therefore, the answer to this is 50 people.
