Answer:
x = -2 or -9
Step-by-step explanation:
You want the values of x such that the line defined by the two points (2x+3, x+2) and (0, 2) is perpendicular to the line defined by the two points (x+2, -3-3x) and (8, -1).
<h3>Slope</h3>
The slope of a line is given by the slope formula:
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
Using the formula, the slopes of the two lines are ...
m1 = (2 -(x+2))/(0 -(2x+3)) = (-x)/(-2x-3) = x/(2x +3)
and
m2 = (-1 -(-3-3x))/(8 -(x+2)) = (2+3x)/(6 -x)
<h3>Perpendicular lines</h3>
The slopes of perpendicular lines have product of -1:

<h3>Solutions</h3>
The values of x that satisfy this equation are x = -2 and x = -9. The attached graphs show the lines for each of these cases.

Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the box = x³ +11x² + 20x – 32 I think the ' is a typo for ³
the width is x-1 and the height is x+8
Find an expression for the length
Vol = LWH solve L
Vol / (WH) = L so
L = (x³ +11x² + 20x – 32) / (x-1) (x+8)
so it would help to factor the numerator
(x³ +11x² + 20x – 32) I'm willing to bet (x-1) and (x+8) are factors
but I will plot the equation to find the three roots
(x³ +11x² + 20x – 32) = (x-1) (x+8) (x+4)
L = (x³ +11x² + 20x – 32) / (x-1) (x+8)
= (x-1) (x+8) (x+4) / (x-1) (x+8) the (x-1) and (x+8) cancel out leaving
L = (x + 4)
Answer:
<h2>b = 4</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:

Sheila is incorrect! I think what she did is think the 38 was actually a 35, which WOULD of made her statement true, but since it's 38, she's very incorrect. Sheila should be using the quotient for the size of each piece. 38 divided by 5 is 7.6. The correct answer is 7.6 inches.
