Answer:
The area of rectangle is 21 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The area of rectangle is equal to

where
L is the length
W is the width
In this problem we have


substitute

The draw in the attached figure
therefore
The area of rectangle is 21 in^2
Answer:
third answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The end behavior of the function indicates that the leading coefficient of x is negative (as x approaches infinity, f(x) approaches negative infinity for cubic functions with negative leading coefficients). This eliminates the first 2 answers. Next, factor out the common factor from the 3rd answer and set it to 0 to see if the roots of the polynomial shown on the graph (x=-3, x=2) match that of the answer.
- factor out -2x since each term in the 3rd answer is divisible by -2x => -2x(x^2+x-6)
- set the factored polynomial equal to 0 => -2x(x^2+x-6)
- divide both sides by -2x => 0 = x^2+x-6
- factor => (x+3)(x-2) = 0
- find zeros by setting both factors equal to 0 => x=-3, x=2
This means that the 3rd answer is correct. The last answer, while having the correct leading coefficient, will produce roots of 3 and -2 instead of -3 and 2, which is shown on the graph.
Side FG is proportional to side BC. When showing that two figures are similar, they should always be typed in the order of the points they correspond to. In this instance, ABCD ~ EFGH, meaning that AB ~ EF, BC ~ FG, CD ~ GH, and AD ~ EH. Let's use a simpler example, with similar triangles MNO and XYZ.
MNO ~ XYZ Since the two triangles are written in this specific order, each side should be similar to the side in the same order on the other triangle.
MN ~ XY
NO ~ YZ
MO ~ XZ
Hope this helps!
