Answer:

length = 20 ft, width = 11 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

let w be width, then length = w + 9

The opposite sides of a rectangle are equal , then

2w + 2(w + 9) = 62

2w + 2w + 18 = 62

4w + 18 = 62 ( subtract 18 from both sides )

4w = 44 ( divide both sides by 4 )

w = 11

and w + 9 = 11 + 9 = 20

then width = 11 ft and length = 20 ft

2x + 8 > 18 2x+ 8 ≥ 18
2x > 18 -8     2x ≥ 18 - 8
2x > 10    2x ≥ 10
x > 10/2 x ≥ 10/2
x>5 x ≥ 5

   The answer that combines both inequality is x ≥ 5

The length of the line segment AB equals 3x+1 BC equals 4x-5 AC equals 8x-9

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

X = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is what I am picturing (not to scale)

A ----------------B-----------C

We are given the information of AB (which equals 3x + 1), BC (which equals 4x - 5), and AC (which equals 8x - 9).

With reference to the line, AB + BC = AC

So,

3x + 1 + 4x - 5 = 8x - 9

7x - 4 = 8x - 9

5 = x

Use the rational root theorem to list all possible rational roots for the equation.

Alik [6]

Answer:

The possible rational roots are

$\pm 1, \pm 2,\pm3,\pm6,\pm \frac{1}{3},\pm \frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the equation 3x^3+9x-6=0 and we have to list all possible rational roots by rational root theorem.

The factors of constant term are $1, 2, 3,6$

The factors of leading coefficient are $1,3,$

From ration root theorem, the possible roots are the ratio of the factors of the constant term and the factors of the leading coefficient. We include both positive as well as negative, hence we must include plus minus.

$\pm\frac{1,2,3,6}{1,3}\\\\ =\pm 1, \pm 2,\pm3,\pm6,\pm \frac{1}{3},\pm \frac{2}{3}$
