One side of a rectangle is 4 m longer than four times another side. The area of the rectangle is 224 m².
Find the length of the shorter side.

Answers

Answer 1

Let the another side be x m.

Therefore, the longer side = (4 + 4x) m.

Now,

[tex]{\sf{→x \times (4 + 4x) = 224 \\ →4x + 4x {}^{2} - 224 = 0 \\→ x {}^{2} + x - 56 = 0 \\ →x {}^{2} + 8x - 7x - 56 = 0 \\ →x(x + 8) - 7(x + 8) = 0 \\ →(x - 7)(x +8 ) = 0 \\ →x = 7 \: or \: x = - 8 \\ \\ length \: cannot \: be \: negative \\ possible \: solution \: (x) = 7}}[/tex]

a rectangle that is 3 inches by 5 inches has been scaled by a factor of 6. What are the side lengths of the scaled copy?

Answers

The lengths of the scaled copy of rectangle is 18 inches by 30 inches .

Scaled by a factor : Whenever something is scaled by a factor it means that it is multiplied by that factor .

For Example , if 3  is scaled by a factor of 2 , means 3 is multiplied by 2 that is 3*2=6.

In the given question

length of rectangle = 3inches

it is scaled by factor of 6 , that means

length of scaled copy of rectangle = 3*6= 18inches.

breadth of the rectangle = 5 inches

it is scaled by factor a factor of 6 , that means

breadth of scaled copy of rectangle = 5*6 = 30inches.

Therefore , the lengths of the scaled copy of the rectangle will be 18inches by 30inches.

The values of x satisfying the condition of the quadratic function (f o g)(x) = 17 is; (2, 4)

How to solve quadratic equations?

We are given the functions;

f(x) = 2x - 3

g(x) = x² - 6x + 18

Thus;

(f o g)(x) = 2(x² - 6x + 18) - 3

= 2x² - 12x + 36 - 3

= 2x² - 12x + 33

Now, we want to find the value of x when (f o g)(x) = 17. Thus;

2x² - 12x + 33 = 17

2x² - 12x + 16 = 0

Factorizing this gives us;

Compute using long division 342÷23

Answers

Answer:

342 ÷ 23 = 14.869565217 or 14 r 20

Check step-by-step explanation below for 2 methods to solve.

14.869565217 method right below

14 r 20 method at the bottom in bold and underlined

Hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

divisor

↓ ? <------ quotient

23 | 342 <------ dividend

remainder = r (the number that the divisor can't go into.

1) 23 goes into 34 one time, so we write the one on top.

1

23 | 342

2) 23 • 1 = 23 so then we subtract 23 from 34 and get 11.

1

23 | 342

- 23

1 1

3) Now we carry down the 2 and get 112.

1

23 | 342

- 23 ↓

1 1 2

4) 23 goes into 112 four times, so we write the four on top.

1 4

23 | 342

- 23 ↓

1 1 2

5) 23 • 14 = 92 so we subtract 92 from 112 and get 20.

1 4

23 | 342

- 23 ↓

1 1 2

- 92

20

6) 23 can't go into 20 so we add a decinal and a zero to 342 (dividend) and add a decimal to 14 too.

1 4.

23 | 342.0

- 23 ↓

1 1 2

- 92

20

7) Repeat the same steps again (Take the first digit of the dividend from the left. Check if this digit is greater than or equal to the divisor (if greater use it if less than take the next number). Then divide it by the divisor and write the answer on top as the quotient. Subtract the result from the digit and write the difference below. Bring down the next digit of the dividend (if present). Repeat the same process.)

1 4.8

23 | 342.0

- 23 ↓↓

1 1 2

- 92

200

- 1 84

8) Keep repeating and then we get 14.8695652174

*However, if the directions say to not continue and add the decimal and zero then we must put a remainer (r).*

An investment account eaming 3.85% simple interest cas $67 50 in 3 years. How much was invested? Give your answer rounded to whole cents.​

Answers

The amount that was invested at the start of the 3 years that is the principal amount will be equal to $ 6051.098.

Let the principal amount that is invested be equal to x.

So, we get that:

P = x

Now, the time period t = 3 years.

Simple interest rate = r = 3.85 %

Amount after 3 years = A = $ 6750

A = P + ( P × r × t / 100)

6750 = x + ( x × 3.85 × 3 / 100)

6750 = x + 0.1155 x

6750 = 1.1155 x

x = 6750 / 1.1155

x = 6051.098

Therefore, we get that, the amount that was invested at the start of the 3 years that is the principal amount will be equal to $ 6051.098.

An absolute value inequality for given graph is |x| ≤ 6

In this question, we have been given a graph of a number line.

We need to write an absolute value inequality for given graph.

From the given graph, we can observe that the value of x lies between -6 to 6.

i.e., -6 ≤ x ≤ 6

We know that, for a real number 'm', the absolute value function for m would be,

|±m| = m

Answers

From the data given, we have that:

1. The linear regression equation is given by:y = 0.69684x - 1.43675.

2. 21 users during the 32th week.

How to find the equation of best fit using a calculator?

To find the equation, we need to insert the points (x,y), given in a scatter plot or in a table, in the calculator. We also have to identify the type of data that models the situation, such as linear, quadratic or exponential.

For this problem, the data is increasing somewhat linearly, hence linear regression is used.

The points of the function, from the table, are given as follows:

(1, 1.5), (4, 2.2), (6, 2.4), (10, 3.9), (12, 5.5), (15, 6.8), (20, 12.3), (24, 16.4), (25, 17.6).

Hence the the linear equation that models the data is:

y = 0.69684x - 1.43675

The value during the 32th week is found when x = 32, hence:

y = 0.69684(32) - 1.43675 = 21 (rounded up, as the first decimal digit is greater than 0.5).

y = 6/7x + 3/2

2.The line passing through (0,-3) and (0,15) has the equation:

since the slope is undefined, hence equation of the line is not formed.

3.The line passing through (-24,-16) and (-8,-6) has the equation:

y = 5/8x - 1

4.The line passing through (-8,-12) and (12,13) has the equation:

y = 5/4x - 2.

Given we have the pair of points, through which we need to determine the equation of the line:

1.  (-14,-9) and (7,9)

first we need to find the slope

(-14,-9) = (x₁,y₁)

(7,9) = (x₂,y₂)

m= y₂₋y₁/x₂₋x₁

= 9-(-9)/7-(-14)

= 18/21

m= 6/7

Use the slope and one of the points to find the y-intercept b:

(7,9) and m= 6/7

substitute in y=mx+b

9=6/7(7) + b

b = 9/6

b= 3/2

now substitute m=6/7 and b= 3/2 in slope intercept form.

y = 6/7x + 3/2

2. (0,-3) and (0,15)

first we need to find the slope

(0,-3) = (x₁,y₁)

(0,15) = (x₂,y₂)

m= y₂₋y₁/x₂₋x₁

= 15-(-3)/0-0

= undefined

hence  we can't frame the equation of the line.

3.  (-24,-16) and (-8,-6)

first we need to find the slope

(-24,-16) = (x₁,y₁)

(-8,-6) = (x₂,y₂)

m= y₂₋y₁/x₂₋x₁

= -6-(-16)/-8-(-24)

= -6+16/-8+24

= 10/16

m= 5/8

Use the slope and one of the points to find the y-intercept b:

(-8,-6) and m= 5/8

substitute in y=mx+b

-6=5/8(-8) + b

b = -1

now substitute m=5/8 and b= -1 in slope intercept form.

y = 5/8x - 1

4. (-8,-12) and (12,13)

first we need to find the slope

(-8,-12) = (x₁,y₁)

(12,13) = (x₂,y₂)

m= y₂₋y₁/x₂₋x₁

= 13-(-12)/12-(-8)

= 25/12+8

= 25/20

m= 5/4

Use the slope and one of the points to find the y-intercept b:

(12,13) and m= 5/4

substitute in y=mx+b

13=5/4(12) + b

b = -2

now substitute m=5/4 and b= -2 in slope intercept form.

y = 5/4x - 2.

hence we get the acquired results.

If an event can occur in m different ways and if following it, a second event can occur in n different ways, then the two events in succession can occur in m × n different ways.

WE have been given that Eli broke a cell sample into 14 batches, each weighing 4.7 x 10-8 grams. which follows that the task content; the weight of the original sample from which the eight batches were obtained be determined.

Hence, since each of the 14 batches weighs;

Therefore, the weight of the original sample can be obtained as;

[tex]4.7 \times 10^{-8} \times 14\\\\65.8 \times 10^{-8}[/tex]

However, when the weight is expressed in scientific notation, thus the weight of the original sample is;

[tex]65.8 \times 10^{-8}[/tex]

Hence, The weight of the original sample from which all 14 batches which each weighed  4.7 x 10-8 grams are obtained as required in the task content is;  65.8 x 10-8 grams.

Answers

The area of the screen to the nearest square centimeter is 0.103 m².

Given, that the length of the computer screen is = 16 inches

width of the computer screen = 10 inches

we know that 1 inch = 0.0254 m

Width = 10 inches = 10 × 0.0254 m

= 0.254 m

Length = 16 inches = 16 × 0.0254 m

= 0.4064 m

By definition,

Area =  length × width

        = 0.254 × 0.4064 m²

What is component form?A vector's component form is the ordered pair that explains the changes in the x- and y-values. A vector v's component form is written as v=vx,vy, where vx represents the horizontal distance between the initial and terminal points and vy represents the vertical displacement between both the initial and terminal points.

To find the component form of  magnitude 10 and direction 42°:
component form = x + iy

r∠α  = rcosα + irsinαx = rcosαy = rsinαr² = x² + y²r = 10α = 42°
