Answer:

lets find how many books are in each box

120/5=24

so 24 book in a box so lets divide for the 216 books

216/24=9

9 boxes

Sqaure root of 5 (u-1)(u^5+u^4+u^3+u^2+u+1)

Anna71 [15]

GIVEN:

$5(u - 1)( {u}^{5} + {u}^{4} + {u}^{3} + {u}^{2} + u + 1)$

remember:

$\sqrt{u} = {u}^{ \frac{1}{2} }$

And

${u}^{n} \times {u}^{m} = {u}^{n + m}$

SOLVE:

start by multiplying the factors:

$5( ({u}^{6} + {u}^{5} + {u}^{4} + {u}^{3} + {u}^{2} + u ) - ( {u}^{5} + {u}^{4} + {u}^{3} + {u}^{2} + u + 1))$

simplify by combing like terms. Most terms subtract off, leaving:

$5( {u}^{6} - 1)$

This can be factored, but it is not a perfect square, which is really what we need to take the square root.

$5( {u}^{3} - 1)( {u}^{3} + 1)$

I'm not exactly sure what form they want the answer in...

so taking the square root:

$\sqrt{5( {u}^{6} - 1) } = {(5( {u}^{6} - 1))}^{ \frac{1}{2} }$

so my best answer is:

${5}^{ \frac{1}{2} } \times {( {u}^{6} - 1)}^{ \frac{1}{2} }$
or the more factored form:

${5}^{ \frac{1}{2} } { ({u}^{3} - 1)}^{ \frac{1}{2} } { ({u}^{3} + 1 )}^{ \frac{1}{2} }$

I'm not sure how else to solve it. Taking the square root doesn't work out super well, so I left it in the most simple form I could.

sorry for not coming to a definitive answer!

A rectangle has an area of 900square inches. The length of the rectangle is 2.25 times the width.Find the dimensions

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

Length = 45 inches and Width = 20 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be w.

Length(l)=2.25w

Area = 900 in^2

The formula for the area of a rectangle is Area = length * width

So substituting our values we get:

$A=2.25w*w\\900=2.25w*w\\2.25w^2=900\\w^2=\frac{900}{2.25} \\w^2=400\\w=\sqrt{400} \\w=20$

So we get width = 20 inches

Length = 2.25w

so Length= 2.25*20

=45 inches
