Write 7% as a decimal by dividing by 100:

7/100 = 0.07

Multiple the price of the mower by the decimal:

350 x 0.07 = 24.50

The tax = $24.50

You are designing a rectangular garden. the garden will be enclosed by fencing on three sides and by a house on the fourth side.

RUDIKE [14]

Suppose the dimensions of the rectangle is x by y and let the side enclosed by a house be one of the sides measuring x, then the sides that is to be enclosed are two sides measuring y and one side measuring x.

Thus, the length of fencing needed is given by

P = x + 2y

The area of the rectangle is given by xy,

i.e.

$xy = 288 \\ \\ \\ \\ \Rightarrow y= \frac{288}{x}$

Substituting for y into the equation for the length of fencing needed, we have

$P=x+2\left( \frac{288}{x} \right)=x+ \frac{576}{x}$

For the amount of fencing to be minimum, then

$\frac{dP}{dx} =0 \\ \\ \Rightarrow1- \frac{576}{x^2} =0 \\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{576}{x^2} =1 \\ \\ \Rightarrow x^2=576 \\ \\ \Rightarrow x=\sqrt{576}=24$

Now, recall that

$y= \frac{288}{x} = \frac{288}{24} =12$

Thus, the length of fencing needed is given by

P = x + 2y = 24 + 2(12) = 24 + 24 = 48.

Therefore, 48 feets of fencing is needed to enclose the garden.

Answer:

The possible rational roots are: +1, -1 ,+3, -3, +9, -9

Step-by-step explanation:

The Rational Root Theorem tells us that the possible rational roots of the polynomial are given by all possible quotients formed by factors of the constant term of the polynomial (usually listed as last when written in standard form), divided by possible factors of the polynomial's leading coefficient. And also that we need to consider both the positive and negative forms of such quotients.

So we start noticing that since the leading term of this polynomial is $x^3$ , the leading coefficient is "1", and therefore the list of factors for this is: +1, -1
