A line of roses forms the diagonal of a rectangular flower garden. Th e line of roses is 18.4 m long, and one side of the garden

is 13 m long. To the nearest tenth of a meter, what is the length of a perpendicular side of the garden?

Given that the garden is rectangular and a line of roses form the diagonal 18.4 m long, we required to calculate the length of the perpendicular side.
Here we shall use the Pythagorean theorem.
c²=a²+b²
where c is the hypotenuse, a and b are the legs.
from the information given:
c=18.4 m
a=13 m
plugging this into our expression we get:
18.4²=13²+b²
next we solve for the value of b
b²=18.4²-13²
b²=338.56-169
b²=169.56
b=√169.56
b=13.0215
hence the length to the nearest tenth of a meter will be approximately 13.0 m

Answer:

P(x) = x^4 -16x^3 +76x^2 -72x -100

Step-by-step explanation:

The two roots 1-√3 and 1+√3 give rise to the quadratic factor ...

... (x -(1-√3))(x -(1+√3)) = (x-1)^2 -(√3)^2 = x^2 -2x -2

The complex root 7-i has a conjugate that is also a root. These two roots give rise to the quadratic factor ...

... (x -(7 -i))(x -(7 +i)) = (x-7)^2 -(i)^2 = x^2 -14x +50

The product of these two quadratic factors is ...

... P(x) = (x^2 -2x -2)(x^2 -14x +50) = x^4 +x^3(-14 -2) +x^2(50 +28 -2) +x(-100+28) -100

... P(x) = x^4 -16x^3 +76x^2 -72x -100

Sarah runs a day camp in the summer and needs to buy paper towels and soap for the restrooms. She spends $129 on t cases of pape
Cloud [144]
Let x be the number of cases of paper towels and y be the number of cases of soap. The system of linear equation that would best represent the given is,
                                 x + y = 10
                               12x + 15y = 129
The values of x and y are 7 and 3. 

Sarah both 7 cases of paper towel.

It is not possible for Sarah to buy exactly 20 bottles because first of all the cases contains only 12 bottles and 20 is not divisible by 12.
