Answer:

37.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the shorter piece be x and the longer piece be 5x.

Short piece + Long piece = 285 inches

x + 5x = 225

6x = 225

x = 225 ÷ 6

x = 37.5

The area of a circle is pi(9x2 + 6x + 1) square cm. Find an expression for the length of the circles radius
Ainat [17]

Answer:

r = 3x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a circle is calculated as

A = πr² ( r is the radius )

Here

πr² = π(9x² + 6x + 1) ← divide both sides by π

r² = 9x² + 6x + 1 ← perfect square

r² = (3x + 1)² , thus

r = 3x + 1

Which function has zeros at x=-2 and x=5
Natalka [10]

Answer:

y=2.5x+5 or f(x)=2.5x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

We know 2 given points. (-2, 0) and (0,5)

With these two points we can calculate the slope:

0-5/-2-0+

-5/-2=

5/2 = 2.5

Because the y-intercept is given at 5, we can put these numbers into y=mx+b and get y=2.5x+5 or f(x)=2.5x+5
