Answer:

<h3>28feet</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the wallpaper be a rectangle

Area of a rectangle = Length * Width

A = LW

Perimeter P = 2L+2W

If the wallpaper is sold in rolls that are 2 feet wide, then the width is 2 feet, to get the length, substitute W = 2 and P = 60 into the formula for calculating the perimeter of a rectangle.

60 = 2L + 2(2)

60 = 2L + 4

2L = 60-4

2L = 56

L = 56/2

L = 28

<em>The minimum length that will be purchased to cover the wall is 28 feet</em>

Factor the expression. 9b2 – 25
rewona [7]

Answer: (3b + 5)(3b - 5)

Because both terms, 9b² and 25, are perfect squares, you can factor by taking the square roots of both terms.

The square root of 9b² is 3b (3b × 3b = 9b²).

The square root of 25 is 5 (5 × 5 = 25).

9b² - 25 has a negative, so the factored expression would be

(3b + 5)(3b - 5). The signs (+ and -) alternate in this case because the  expression, 9b² - 25, has no middle term.

You can check your work by using FOIL. See the attachment below.

What is the sum of the difference?
Alona [7]

Answer:

A. 9x^4 and 3x^5y

Step-by-step explanation:

there are two ways to solve this:

first way:

You can solve this my substituting numbers for x and y in this case i used 2 for x and 3 for y and see which one is equal to the original equations

the second way is the regular way

when you add or subtract numbers with variables and exponents you want to add the constants and add the exponents in this case 5x^{4} +4x^2 is the same as (5x+4x)^(4+4) = 9x^4and you can do the same process for subtraction

12x^{5}y-9x^5 y\\(12x-9x)^(5+5)*y= 3x^5y

5 rational and irrational numbers in decimal form
alexira [117]

Answer:

A rational number is a number that can be expressed as a fraction (ratio). This includes whole numbers, square roots that can be solved evenly, negatives, decimals, and repeating decimals that can be solved with a fraction.

  1. \frac{1}{2}   ↔  .5
  2. 5  ↔ 5.0
  3. \sqrt{4} ↔ 2.0
  4. -13  ↔  -13.0
  5. 0.38462... (\frac{5}{13})

An irrational number is a number that is NOT rational. It's the complete opposite!

  1. π  ↔  3.14159
  2. .13133133...
  3. \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}   ↔  0.86603...
  4. -\sqrt{5}  ↔  -2.23607...
  5. \sqrt{5}   ↔   2.23607...

Hope this helps!!!
