Jessica shoebox is 20 cm long and 10 cm wide. How many more millimetres is the length of the shoebox than the width?

1 answer:

8 0

Ok so for every 1 centimeter you get 10 millimeters. Meaning that if you multiply 20 * 10 you get 200 millimeters and if you multiply 10 * 10 you get 100. Now you subtract 200-100 and you get 100 millimeters.

The area of a rectangular piece of cardboard is represented by

Liula [17]

This question is solved applying the formula of the area of the rectangle, and finding it's width. To do this, we solve a quadratic equation, and we get that the cardboard has a width of 1.5 feet.

Area of a rectangle:

The area of rectangle of length l and width w is given by:

$A = wl$

w(2w + 3) = 9

From this, we get that:

$l = 2w + 3, A = 9$

Solving a quadratic equation:

Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:

$ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0$ .

This polynomial has roots $x_{1}, x_{2}$ such that $ax^{2} + bx + c = a(x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2})$ , given by the following formulas:

$x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\Delta}}{2*a}$

$x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\Delta}}{2*a}$

$\Delta = b^{2} - 4ac$

In this question:

$w(2w+3) = 9$

$2w^2 + 3w - 9 = 0$

Thus a quadratic equation with $a = 2, b = 3, c = -9$

Then

$\Delta = 3^2 - 4(2)(-9) = 81$

$w_{1} = \frac{-3 + \sqrt{81}}{2*2} = 1.5$

$w_{2} = \frac{-3 - \sqrt{81}}{2*2} = -3$

Width is a positive measure, thus, the width of the cardboard is of 1.5 feet.

Neal opened a savings account 11 years ago with a deposit of $2,335.69. The account has an interest rate of 4.3% compounded dail

Vinvika [58]

Answer: $1,412.52

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to calculate the accumulated amount if P principal invested for t years at a rate of interest r that compounded daily is given by:-

$A=P(1+\dfrac{r}{365})^{365t}$

Given: P= $2,335.69

r= 4.3%= 0.043

t= 11 years

Then,

$A=2335.69(1+\dfrac{0.043}{365})^{365\times11}\\\\=2335.69(1+0.000117808219178)^{4015}\\\\=2335.69(1.000117808219178)^{4015}\\\\= 2335.69(1.6047566747)\\\\=3748.09044309\approx3748.21\\\\\Rightarrow\ A=\$3748.21$

Interest earned = A-P

= $3748.21- 2335.69.

= $1412.52

Hence, Neal earned $1,412.52 as interest.
