Answer:
39
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=17x
f(3)=17(3)
f(x)=51
g(x)=4x
g(3)=4(3)
g(x)=12
f(x)-g(x)
51-12= 39
Answer:
5 of the 7 boxes are 8 inches in height
Step-by-step explanation:
Mathematically;
1 ft = 12 inches
So, 5 ft will measure 5 * 12 = 60 inches
So from what we have ,
We want to combine 8 and 10 inches to give 60 inches total
Let the number of 10 inches be x and the number of 8 inches be y
Mathematically;
x + y = 7 •••••(i)
10x + 8y = 60 ••••(ii)
From equation i, x = 7-y
Put this in equation ii
10(7-y) + 8y = 60
70-10y + 8y = 60
70-60 = 10y-8y
2y = 10
y = 10/2
y = 5
Answer:
The answer is D
Step-by-step explanation:
Dimensions of rectangle = 12 + x and 14 + x
(12 + x) (14 + x) = 288
x^2 + 26x + 168 = 288
x^2 + 26x - 120 = 0
(x + 30) (x - 4) = 0
x=-30, x =4
since 4 is positive
the dimensions increased by 4 feet
check the answer
12+4 = 16
14 +4 = 18
18*16 =288
