Answer:

The value of  x = \frac{1}{6}

The length of the rectangle   =  \frac{3}{2} cm

The width of the rectangle  = \frac{16}{3} cm

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>

Given that area of the rectangle = 8 cm²

Length of the rectangle (l) = 3x+1

width of the rectangle (w) = 2x+5

The area of the rectangle = length × width

Given that area of the rectangle = 8 cm²

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

Now

                   (3x+1) ( 2x+5)    = 8

       ⇒      3x(2x+5) +1(2x+5) =8

                    6 x² + 15x + 2x +5 =8

         ⇒     6 x² + 17x -3 =0

        ⇒      6 x² + 18x -x -3 =0

       ⇒   6 x ( x+3) -1(x+3) =0

       ⇒   6x -1 =0  and  x +3 =0

              6x = 1  and   x =-3

             x = \frac{1}{6}

The length of the rectangle

                               = 3 (\frac{1}{6} ) +1 \\= \frac{3}{2}

The width of the rectangle

                            = 2 (\frac{1}{6} ) +5

                            = \frac{16}{3}

Part A: If (72)x = 1, what is the value of x? Explain your answer. (5 points)
vichka [17]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:  (72)^x = 1

Take the log base 72 of each side

log72(72^x) = log 72(1)

We know log a^b = b log a

x log72(72) = log72(1)

x =  log72(1)

x = 0

Part A:  (70)^x = 1

Take the log base 70 of each side

log70(70^x) = log70(1)

We know log a^b = b log a

x log70(70) = log70(1)

x =  log70(1)

x = 0

Katyanochek1 [597]
24 1/5 is equal to 24.2

Multiply 24.2 by 7.75

24.2* 7.75 = 187.55

So she made $187.55 before taxes
