Answer:

y =-14

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse variation is of the form

xy = k where k is a constant

(-7)(-8) = k

56 = k

The equation is

xy = 56

Let x = -4

(-4)y = 56

y = 56/-4

y =-14

What is the area of a rectangle with a width of x2 + x + 1 and a length of<br> 3x2 - 2x - 1?
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

x^{4} + 3x³ - 3x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as

A = lw ( l is the length and w the width ) , thus

A = (3x² - 2x - 1)(x² + x + 1)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, then

A = 3x²(x² + x + 1) - 2x(x² + x + 1) - 1(x² + x + 1) ← distribute parenthesis

   = 3x^{4} + 3x³ + 3x² - 2x^{4} - 2x² - 2x - x² - x - 1 ← collect like terms

   = x^{4} + 3x³ - 3x - 1

Calculate the length of the thirst side.
Otrada [13]

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this is a right triangle, we can use Pythagorean Theorem to find the third side. We'll represent the missing side with the variable x.

x² + 20² = 29²

x² + 400 = 841

x² = 441

x = 21

Therefore, the length of the third side is 21.
