Answer:

4n^2+3n+2

Step-by-step explanation:

9 24 47 78 117

 15  23

     8

8/2 = 4

=4n^2

9-4 = 5 (the minus value come from 4n^2 where n is the position where 9 lays)

24-16 = 8

47-36 = 11

so plus 3 every time so 3n

4n^2+3n for the first value is 7 so you need an extra 2

4n^2+3n+2

The area of a rectangle is 72cm square. Length,/, of the rectangle is 6 cm longer than the width w
Butoxors [25]
As you haven't specifically stated what exactly the question is, I will be assuming that the question is most likely asking for what the dimensions ( length and width ) of the rectangle is. With this in mind, I will be answering the question so here I go...


STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION:

Let's solve this problem step-by-step.

Let's first establish the formula for the area of a rectangle as displayed below:

Area = Length × Width

A = lw

From this, we will establish the values for each of the parts in the area formula using the information given in the problem as displayed below:

A = 72cm^2

l = w + 6

w = w

Now, we will substitute these values into the area formula and then make ( w ) the subject as displayed below:

A = lw

72 = ( w + 6 ) ( w )

72 = w ( w + 6 )

72 = w^2 + 6w

0 = w^2 + 6w - 72

0 = w^2 + 12w - 6w - 72

0 = w ( w + 12 ) - 6 ( w + 12 )

0 = ( w + 12 ) ( w - 6 )


w + 12 = 0

w = 0 - 12

w = - 12


w - 6 = 0

w = 0 + 6

w = 6

As the answer must be positive as measurements are always positive, the answer must be the option which is a positive number.

Therefore:

w = 6

Using the equation we made for the length before, we can substitute the value of ( w ) to obtain the value of the length as displayed below:

l = w + 6

l = ( 6 ) + 6

l = 12


FINAL ANSWER:

The dimensions of the rectangle are:

Length = 12cm

Width = 6cm

Which is the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that contains points A and C?
Delvig [45]
We have that
point C(-2,-4)
point A(-4,-2)

we know that
the equation of a line in the intercept form is
y=mx+b

Step 1
find slope m
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(-2+4)/(-4+2)------> 2/-2-------> m=-1

Step 2
find the value of b
with m=-1 and point C(-2,-4)
-4=-1*(-2)+b--------> -4=2+b-------> b=-6
y=mx+b
y=-x-6

the answer is
y=-x-6

Sheila multiplier 62.5 by 4.08. What should have been her answer if she quickly rounded the numbers before multiplying?
kozerog [31]
The answer would be 252. Here’s why:

You always round up when it’s five (half) or above. 4 or Lower will round it down. In our question here, 62.5 would be rounded up, and 4.08 will be rounded down. This lets us rewrite the question as 63 times 4, and we get 252.

Hope this helps!
