Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume = 198 ft
length * width * height = 198
(x - 1) * (x + 4) * 3 = 198
(x - 1) * (x + 4) = 198/3
(x - 1) * (x + 4) = 66
x*x + x*4 -1*x - 1*4 = 66 {Use FOIL method to multiply}
x² + 4x - x - 4 = 66
x² + 3x - 4 =66
x² + 3x - 4 - 66 = 0
x² + 3x - 70 = 0
Now factorize.
x² + 10x - 7x - 7*10 = 0
x(x +10) - 7(x + 10 ) = 0
(x + 10)(x - 7) = 0
x - 7 = 0 {x + 10 is ignored because measurement cannot be in negative}
x = 7
length = x - 1 = 7 - 1 = 6ft
Width = x + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11 ft
Answer:
1/3 , 4/15 , 5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
All you have to do is plug the fractions in your calculator and you see that 1/3, 4/15, and 5/6 are repeating, but the others stop after only a couple of decimal places.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter of a rectangle = twice the length plus twice the width
P = 2L + 2W equation 1 P = 86 ft
Given the length is seven feet more than the width
L = W + 7 equation 2
Substitute equation 2 into equation 1
P = 2(W+7) + 2W = 86 ft
2W +14 + 2W = 86 ft
4W = 86 - 14
W = 72 / 4
W = 18 feet
Answer:
<u>Given equation:</u>
<u>To find the y-intercept, evaluate the equation with x = 0:</u>
- y = 10*0 - 32
- y = 0 - 32
- y = -32
<u>To find the x-intercept, evaluate the equation with y = 0:</u>
- 0 = 10x - 32
- 10x = 32
- x = 32/10
- x = 3.2
Answer:
Because -13 < 10, so -13 is farther from 0 than 10
