Solution :

Given, A King Size waterbed has the following dimensions 72 in. x 84 in. x 9.5in. It takes 240.7 gallons of water to fill it, which would weigh 2071 pounds.

Volume of the King Size Waterbed, V = length X width X height

V= 72\:inch\times84\:inch\times9.5\:inch
\\\\V=57456\:cubic\: inch

We know that,

1 \:cubic\:inch=\frac{1}{1728} \:cubic\:foot\\\\
\Rightarrow57456 \:cubic\:inch=\frac{1}{1728} \times57456= 33.25\: cubic\:feet

Weight of  33.25 cubic foot water = 2071 pounds

Weight of  water in 1 cubic foot water = =\frac{2071}{33.25} =62.29\:pounds\:per\:cubic\:foot

Hence, Water weighs 62.29 pounds per cubic foot.

Answer:

  17

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the smaller integer. Then we have ...

  (x +1)² +(x +2)² = 40x +5

  2x² +6x +5 = 40x +5

  x² -17x = 0 . . . . . subtract (40x+5), divide by 2

  x(x -17) = 0 . . . . . factor

The solution of interest is x = 17.

The smaller integer is 17.

an Italian restaurant buys 15 pounds of onions every 2 weeks. how many bags of onions will the restaurant buy in 7 weeks?
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a trick question. Since they only get three purchases in by 7 weeks, the answer will be 15 times 3 or 45.

(If I'm wrong and it's not a trick question, then it's 15 times 3.5 or 52.5)

Hope this helps!

Answer:

  1.  value is 0; x-3 is a factor . . . . . . . . . . . . . .third choice

  2.  evaluates at x = -1; remainder is -11 . . . . first choice

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing f(x) by (x -a) gives ...

  f(x)/(x -a) = g(x) +r/(x -a) . . . . some quotient and a remainder r

If we multiply this expression by (x -a), we see ...

  f(x) = (x -a)g(x) +r

so

  f(a) = (a -a)g(a) +r . . . . . evaluate the above equation at x=a

  f(a) = 0 +r

  f(a) = r . . . . . . . . . a statement of the remainder theorem

If r=0, then x-a is a factor of f(x) = (x-a)g(x).

___

1. We have "a" = 3, and f(3) = 0. Therefore (x-3) is a factor.

__

2. We have "a" = -1, and f(-1) = -11. Therefore the remainder from division by (x+1) is -11.
