Suppose that the length of a certain rectangle is two centimeters more than three times its width. If the area of the rectangle

is 85 square centimeters, find its length and width
Mathematics

Answer:

width = 5 in

length = 17 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = length x width

width = w

length = 2 + 3w

85 = (w) x (2 + 3w)

85 = 2w + 3w³

this can be solved using quadratic equation

3w³ + 2w - 85 = 0

factors of 3w³ x -85 that add up to 2w are : +17 w and -15w

(3w³ - 15w) (17w - 85) = 0

3w(w - 5) 17(w - 5) 0

w = 5

or w = - 17/3

the width cannot be a negative number. the correct width is 5 in

Length = 2 x 3(5) = 17 inches

Line $\ell_1$ is horizontal and passes through $(1,1)$. Line $\ell_2$ is vertical and passes through $(2,2)$. Find the point of
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

(2,1)

Step by step explanation:      

Please find the attachment.

We have been given that line l_1 is horizontal and passes through point (1,1). Line l_2 is vertical and passes through point (2,2). We are asked to find point of intersection of line l_1 and line l_2.  

Line l_1 is a horizontal line so y-coordinate will be 1 for any value of x. Line l_2 is a vertical line, so x-coordinate will be 2 for any value of y.

Therefore, intersection point of both lines will include x-coordinate of line l_2 and y-coordinate of line l_1 that is (2,1).

The pH of solution A is 2.4​, while the pH of solution B is 9.4.
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

pH definition

                         pH = - log [H⁺]

a) For pH = 2.4, solution A

                       2.4 = -log[H⁺]

                      [H⁺] = antilog⁻².⁴

                      [H⁺] = 0.00398

  For pH = 9.4, solution B

                       [H⁺] = antilog⁻⁹.⁴

                       [H⁺] = 3.98 x 10⁻¹⁰

b) Divide hydrogen-ion concentration of solution A by hydrogen-ion concentration of solution B.

                             0.00398 / 3.98 x 10⁻¹⁰

                             10000000 times

c) By 7, because 7 is the number of zeros

Determine whether each sequence is arithmetic. If so, identify the common difference.
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Options 1 and 4 are arithmetic

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic means that you are adding or subtracting a number in a sequence.

For option 1, we are adding 2 every time.

-3 + 2 = -1   -1 + 2 = 1   1 + 2 = 3

For option 4, we are subtracting 7 every time.

32 - 7 = 25   25 - 7 = 18   18 - 7 = 11

Option 2 is geometric. Geometric means you are multiplying or dividing by a number in a sequence.

2 * 3 = 6   6 * 3 = 18   18 * 3 = 54

Option 3 is actually quadratic. This is similar to a arithmetic, except instead, the amount added to the number is multiplied by 2 every time.

1 + 2 = 3   (2 + 2 = 4)   3 + 4 = 7   (4 + 4 = 8)   7 + 8 = 15

F(x)=x^2-8x+7 in factored form​
Karolina [17]

Answer:

(x-1)(x-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor the equation, find two binomials which multiply to a quadratic. The quadratic's factors are found by finding two numbers that multiply to 7 and add to -8.

-1 and -7 multiply to 7 and add to -8.

(x-1)(x-7)
