Answer:

The correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: One side of the rectangle is (5x+2) and another sides of rectangle is (x-4).

The area of rectangle is

A=length \times width

Substitute length = (5x+2) and width = (x-4) in the above formula, to find the simplified polynomial expression in standard form to represent the area of the rectangle.

A=(5x+2)\times (x-4)

Using distributive property,

A=5x(x-4)+2(x-4)

A=5x(x)+5x(-4)+2(x)+2(-4)

On simplification we get

A=5x^2-20x+2x-8

On combining like terms we get

A=5x^2+(-20x+2x)-8

A=5x^2+(-18x)-8

A=5x^2-18x-8

Therefore the correct option is C.

Consider the function y = x2 − 18x. Enter the values for the variables to complete the inverse.
ollegr [7]
<span>In the function "y=x2-18x" the goal is to find the value of the letter x. We know that y equals x2-18x. First, recognize that x2 is the same thing as 2x. So changing the problem to "y=2x-18x". We can subtract 18x from 2x, which leaves us with -16x. Now the problem looks like this: y=-16x. In order to get x by itself, we will need to do the same thing to both sides of the equation. In this case, we want the answer to be x by itself, or (1x) which is the same thing. We divide both sides of the equation by (-16). We are left with the following: y/-16=x. Basically, in words, x equals y divided by negative 16.</span>

Container A and container B are right circular cylinders. A has a radius of 4 inches and a height of 5 inches while container B
Bess [88]

Answer:

8 in

Step-by-step explanation:

RA = 4 in, RB = 2 in

oil height in A = hA = 2 in

Find oil height in B = hB

volume of oil in A = VA = π*RA² * hA

equal amount means volume of oil in B VB = VA

But VB = π*RB² * hB

so π*RA² * hA = π*RB² * hB

then

hB = hA *(RA/RB)² = 2 * (4/2)² = 8 in

At a university, 12% of students smoke. Calculate the expected number of smokers in a random sample of 140 students from this un
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

a) The expected number of smokers in a random sample of 140 students from this university is 16.8 smokers.

b) No, it is unlikely that smoking habits and waking up early to go to the gym on Saturday are independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the expected numbers of smokers in a sample with size n=140 and proportion p=12%, we use the expected value of the binomial distribution:

E(x)=n\cdot p=140\cdot 0.12=16.8

The expected number of smokers in a random sample of 140 students from this university is 16.8 smokers.

If we take a sample at the opening of the gym, the sample is not expected to be representative of the population of the students. Most of the students that go to the gym usually have healthy habits, so the proportions of smokers is expected to be lower than the average of the university population.

Sove for y 3 y + 13 equals 5 y - 5
Papessa [141]
If you could send an image that is clearer I will be able to help you more, but for what we have: 3y+13=5y-5, the answer would be 2y=18 (after doing all your algebra). Then you would divide both sides by 2 and get y=9. After this you can plug in 9 for every y and find the angles/measures of all sides!
Hope this helped, and if you need any further assistance, please let me know!
