Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficient of the x^2 term is 1 and the constant term is -28. In order to factor this, we need to find factor pairs of 1 and -28 that will add together in some way to produce -3, the coefficient of the x term.

The factors of 1 are obviously just 1 and 1. The factors of -28 are (1, -28), (2, -14), (4, -7), (-4, 7), (-2, 14), and (-1, 28). Upon examination, we see that if we have the factor pairs (4, -7), from -28, and (1, 1), from 1, we can make -3:

4 * 1 + (-7) * 1 = 4 - 7 = -3

So, we know that our factors are: x + 4 and x + -7, or x - 7. Thus, the answer is A.

Hope this helps!

A cylindrical cup is 10 centimeters in height. When filled to the very top, it holds 500 cubic centimeters of water. What is the

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for radius is

$r=\sqrt{\frac{v}{\pi h } }$

so. 500 divided by pi times 10. then square root your final answer. cool. let's get started.

3.14*10 is 31.4, you can do that without thinking.

500/31.4=15.92

$\sqrt{}$ 15.92= 3.99, or just 4

the radius is four.

The area of a square in square feet is

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Part 1) The expression for the perimeter is $P=4(25z-3)$ or $P=100z-12$

Part 2) The perimeter when z = 15 ft. is $P=1,488\ ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

we have

$625z^{2}-150z+9$

Find the roots of the quadratic equation

Equate the equation to zero

$625z^{2}-150z+9=0$

Complete the square

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$625z^{2}-150z=-9$

Factor the leading coefficient

$625(z^{2}-(150/625)z)=-9$

$625(z^{2}-(6/25)z)=-9$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

$625(z^{2}-(6/25)z+(36/2,500))=-9+(36/4)$

$625(z^{2}-(6/25)z+(36/2,500))=0$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$625(z-6/50)^{2}=0$

$z=6/50=0.12$ -----> root with multiplicity 2

so

The area is equal to

$A=625(z-0.12)(z-0.12)=[25(z-0.12)][25(z-0.12)]=(25z-3)^{2}$

The length side of the square is $b=(25z-3)$

therefore

The perimeter is equal to

$P=4b$

$P=4(25z-3)$

$P=100z-12$

Part 2) Find the perimeter when z = 15 ft.

we have

$P=100z-12$

substitute the value of z

$P=100(15)-12=1,488\ ft$
