Question 1: The area of a rectangular carpet is given by the trinomial 5x^2 - 3x -
14. What are the possible dimensions of the carpet? Use factoring.
Answer: 5x^2 -3x -14
Explanation:
You might probe the different pairs of factors given in the answer choices to check wich product is equal to the oirginal polynomial or you can factor from zero.
I will show you how to factor that polynomial from zero:
1) given: 5x^2 - 3x - 14
2) multiply and divide by the leading coefficient =>
5 [5x^2 - 3x -14 ]
----------------------
5
3) Enter the the factor 5 inside the parenthesis:
5.5x^2 - 5.3x - 5.14
--------------------------
5
4) rearrange conviniently to show (5x) as a common factir of the first two terms
(5x)^2 - 3(5x) - 70
--------------------------
5
5) factor the numerator using 5x as common term of the two binomials:
(5x ) ( 5x ) <----> open the parenthesis
(5x - ) (5x + ) <-----> include the signs
(5x - 10) (5x + 7) <---> two numbers that add up - 3 and their product is - 70
=>
(5x - 10)(5x + 7)
---------------------
5
6) divide (5x - 10) by 5 => x - 2
7) factored expression
(x - 2) (5x + 7)
8) Conclusion: the answer is the option B. (5x + 7) and (x - 2)
2. Question 2. The area of a rectangular barnyard is given by the trinomial 6x^2 +
7x – 20. What are the possible dimensions of the barnyard? Use factoring
Answer: </span><span><span>option C. (2x + 5)(3x - 4)</span>
Explanation:
The procedure is the same of the question 1.
1) given: 6x^2 + 7x - 20
2) multiply numerator and denominator by 6 and rearrange to show (6x) as common factor ot the first two terms =>
(6x)^2 + 7(6x) - 120
--------------------------
6
3) factor the numerador using 6x as common factor ot two binomials, and simplify:
(6x + )(6x - )
(6x + )(6x - )
(6x + 15) (6x - 8)
=>
(6x + 15)(6x -8)
---------------------
6
(6x + 15)(6x - 8)
---------------------- =
3.2
(6x + 15) (6x - 8)
------------- . ------------ =
3 2
(2x + 5)(3x - 4)
4) answer: option C. (2x + 5)(3x - 4)</span>
Answer:
3 miles on Monday
2¹/₁₀ miles on Tuesday
3⁹/₂₀ miles on Wednesday
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that Bonnie runs 1⅔ (⁵/₃) times as far as John each day
This means that John runs ³/₅ times as far as Bonnie.
MONDAY:
Bonnie runs 5 miles on Monday, therefore, John runs:
³/₅ * 5 = 3 miles
TUESDAY:
Bonnie runs 3½ (⁷/₂) miles on Tuesday, therefore, John runs:
³/₅ * ⁷/₂ = ²¹/₁₀ = 2¹/₁₀ miles
WEDNESDAY:
Bonnie runs 5³/₄ (²³/₄) miles on Wednesday, therefore, John runs:
³/₅ * ²³/₄ = ⁶⁹/₂₀ = 3⁹/₂₀ miles
First convert 6% to a decimal to get .06, then divide 126 by the decimal form of the percent to find you answer.
126/.06 = 2,100 employees.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Long-term lot
$1.00 hour
$6.00 per day
2 days + 3 hours
$6+$6+$1+$1+$1= $15
Shuttle Parking
$4.00 part/per day
2days +3 hours
$4+$4+$4= $12 which is less expensive
Answer:
height is 6.8m
Step-by-step explanation:
SO both area is same
For trapezoid area is
(10+7) * 4 * 1/2 = 34
And for triangle area equation is
10 * h * 1/2 = 34
here find h
h= 34 *2 * 1/10
h=6.8
