Answer:

l = 15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

l = 2w + 3

First you solve for the width(w)

(2w+15) (w-6) = 0

This means

2w+15=0 OR. w-6=0

First let’s solve 2w+15=0

2w = -15

w = -7.5

Width can’t be negative so that can’t be the answer. So we look at the second equation w-6=0

w= 6

Since we found the width now we can find the length by using the formula l = 2w + 3

= 2(6) + 3

= 12 + 3

= 15 feet

You can check this by using the given area which is 90.

A = lw = 15*6 = 90

Which of the following illustrates the truth value of the given conditional statement?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

  • <u><em>Option A. F  T  →  F</em></u>

Explanation:

A conditional is represented by:

  • p → q

Where p is called the antecedent, and q is the consequent.

Thus, a conditional states that if the antecedent is true, its consequent is also true; also, if the consequent is false, then the antecedent must be false.

On the other hand, if the antecedent is true, the consequent can be either true or false.

<u>1. State the antecedent of the conditional and is truth value</u>

  • Antecedent: 6 > 10
  • Truth value: False, because 6 is not greater than 10.

<u>2. State the consequent of the conditional and its truh value</u>

  • 8 • 3 = 24
  • Truth value: True, because 8 times 3 is 24.

<u>3. Truth value of the conditional</u>

Hence, the truth value of the conditional is:

  • False      Truth        →     Truth, or
  • F   T   →   T

Which is the option A.

Algebra 1 question : Solve for x : 3 - 5x + 6 = 14x - 32 + 10(2-x)
Zepler [3.9K]
Hi there!

3 - 5x + 6 = 14x - 32 + 10(2 - x)
Work out the parenthesis.

3 - 5x + 6 = 14x - 32 + 20 - 10x
Combine like terms.

9 - 5x = 4x - 12
Subtract 9 from both sides.

- 5x = 4x - 21
Subtract 4x from both sides

- 9x =  - 21
Divide both sides by -9

x =  \frac{ - 21}{ - 9}  =  \frac{21}{9}  = 2 \frac{3}{9}  = 2 \frac{1}{3}

A local carpet company has been hired to carpet a planetarium which is in the shape of a circle. If the radius of the planetariu
lapo4ka [179]
This is the concept of application of geometry and financial mathematics; To calculate for the total cost of the carpet we proceed as follows;
Total cost=[area of the carpet]*[price per square yard]
area of carpet is given by:
Area=πr^2
where;
radius,r=6 yeards
=π*6^2
=113.1 square yards
therefore the price of the carpet will be:
113.1*14
=$1,583.4
