A rectangle has an area of (x2 − 17x + 72) square units. Since the area of a rectangle is determined using the formula, A = lw,

what could be the length and width of the rectangle?
length = (x − 8) units and width = (x − 9) units
length = (x + 9) units and width = (x + 8) units
length = (x − 6) units and width = (x − 12) units
length = (x + 12) units and width = (x + 6) units

Answer:

length = (x − 8) units and width = (x − 9) units

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to factor

x^2 - 17x + 72

We need two numbers whose product is 72 and whose sum is -17.

The numbers are -8 and -9.

x^2 - 17x + 72 = (x - 8)(x - 9)

Answer: length = (x − 8) units and width = (x − 9) units

Which value of x is in the solution set of -3X+8≥14? ) A. -3 B. -1 C. 0 D. 3 ​
romanna [79]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for x:

-3x + 8 ≥ 14

-3x ≥ 6

x ≤ -2

Notice the sign gets reversed when you divide or multiply by a negative number.

The only option less than -2 is -3, A.

Here's a tip: on multiple choice questions, sometimes it's faster to try each answer instead of solving the equation.  This can save time on tests like the SAT or ACT.

Let's try it:

-3(-3) + 8 = 9 + 8 = 17

-3(-1) + 8 = 3 + 8 = 11

-3(0) + 8 = 0 + 8 = 8

-3(3) + 8 = -9 + 8 = -1

So you can see the answer is A.

In​ 2006, the population of the country was 30.4 million. This represented an increase in population of 7.6 % since 2001. What w
Molodets [167]

Answer:

28.25 million

Step-by-step explanation:

Population of the country:

  • in 2001 - x million
  • in 2006 - 30.4 million

Population of the country as percent:

  • in 2001 - 100%
  • in 2006 - 100% + 7.6% = 107.6%

Write a proportion:

\dfrac{x}{30.4}=\dfrac{100}{107.6}

Cross multiply:

107.6\cdot x=30.4\cdot 100

Divide by 107.6:

x=\dfrac{30.4\cdot 100}{107.6}=\dfrac{3,040}{107.6}\approx 28.25
