Part B: The area of a rectangle is (25x2 − 4y2) square units. Determine the dimensions of the rectangle by factoring the area expression completely. Show your work.

Answers

Answer 1
A) 9x^2 -18x +9 = 9(x^2 -2x +1) = 3^2*(x -1)^2 = (3(x -1))^2

The length of each side is 3(x -1).


B) 25x^2 -4y^2 = (5x)^2 -(2y)^2 = (5x -2y)*(5x +2y)

The dimensions are (5x -2y) and (5x +2y).

10 units
11 units
12 units
13 units

Answers

Answer: Third option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

△ABC ≅ △WRS

So, Perimeter of △ABC is given by

AB+BC+CA

here, AB = 3 units

BC = 4 units

AC = x

By pythagorus theorem, we get that

[tex]AC^2=AB^2+BC^2\\\\x^2=3^2+4^2\\\\x^2=9+16\\\\x^2=25\\\\x=\sqrt{25}\\\\x=5\ units[/tex]

So, perimeter of △ABC is

Hello there! I can help you! A degree in a polynomial is the highest exponent out of the terms in that polynomial. For example, the degree for 3x³ + 2x² - 7 is 3, because that is the highest valued exponent. Let's solve each of these questions.

1. Okay, so there are 3 terms in the polynomial, which makes it a trinomial. That eliminates A, C, and D, because those answers do not say trinomials. The degree in the trinomial is 2, because that's the highest exponent in any of the terms. That is a quadratic trinomial. The answer is B.

2. Alright. So like the previous question, there are 3 terms in the polynomial. That eliminates answer choices C and D. The degree is 3, which makes it cubic. This is a cubic trinomial. The answer is A.

3. The degree is as stated above, the highest exponent in the polynomial out of the terms. 2 and 4 are not the degrees in this polynomial, so those answers are crossed out. It seems like the degree is 5. However, there is a monomial where two exponent amounts are together. In this case, we will combine the exponents by adding. 2 + 4 is 6. There. The degree is 6. The answer is D.

Note: Keep in mind that linear is where the highest degree is 1, quadratic is where the highest degree si 2, cubic is where the highest degree is 3, quartic is where the highest degree is 4, quintic is where the highest degree is 5. Quadratic and Quartic are not the same, and are easy to get mixed up due to the spelling. Be careful not to make an error on which is which, when it comes to those two.

ANSWER: 43% increased change

Hope this helps! :)



The approximate percentage of change will be 43.24%.

What is the percentage?

The quantity of anything is stated as though it were a fraction of a hundred. A quarter of 100 can be used to express the ratio. Per 100 is what the term percent signifies. The symbol ‘%’ is used to symbolize it.

The percentage is given as,

Percentage (P) = [Final value - Initial value] / Initial value x 100

An antique car was purchased for $7400 and is not worth $10,600.

Then the approximate percent of change will be given as,

P = [(10600 - 7400) / 7400] x 100

P = (3200 / 7400) x 100

P = 0.4324 x 100

P = 43.24%

The approximate percentage of change will be 43.24%.

A bag contains 3 red marbles and 4 blue marbles. a marble is taken at random and replaced. Another marble is taken from the bag. Work out the probability that the two marbles taken from the bag are the same color.

Total number of marbles in the bag is 3 + 4 = 7.The problem asks for the probability of (RR) or (BB).It's worthy to note we are replacing the balls after each draw, which means we always have 7 to draw fromSince each draw is independent, we take the product of each event for the total event probability.

P(RR) = 3/7 * 3/7 = 9/49
P(BB) = 4/7 * 4/7 = 16/49

Domingo works 40 hours per week as a tire store manager . If he made $29640 last year. how much he made per hour
A. $14.25
B. $16.50
C. $12.25
D.$11.00

Answers

Final answer:

Domingo made $14.25 per hour last year by dividing his annual income of $29640 by the total hours worked in the year, which is 2080 hours (40 hours/week  imes 52 weeks).

Explanation:

To calculate how much Domingo made per hour, divide his annual income by the total number of hours worked in a year. Domingo works 40 hours per week, and there are 52 weeks in a year, so the total hours worked in a year is 40 hours/week  imes 52 weeks/year = 2080 hours/year.

The formula to find the hourly wage is:

Hourly Wage = Annual Income / Total Hours Worked

Thus, Domingo's hourly wage would be:

$29640 / 2080 hours = $14.25 per hour.

Therefore, the correct answer is A. $14.25.

Suppose the graph of a cubic polynomial function has the same zeroes and passes through the coordinate (0, –5).

Write the equation of this cubic polynomial function.

Recall that the zeroes are (2, 0), (3, 0), and (5, 0). What is the y-intercept of this graph?
-5

The linear factors of the cubic are

Answers

Zeros are the x values which make the function equal to zero. Set it up as you would for a binomial with a constant multiplier "k" to account for the y-intercept (0, -5) given.

f(x) = k(x-2)(x-3)(x-5)

Use the y-intercept (0,-5) to solve for k.

-5 = k(0-2)(0-3)(0-5)
-5 = -30k
-5/-30 = k
1/6 = k


The cubic polynomial function is then ..

f(x) = (1/6)(x-2)(x-3)(x-5)
 

Linear factors are the linear (line) expressions you can factor out of the polynomial. They are (x-2), (x-3) and (x-5).


The cubic polynomial equation which passes through the coordinate (0,-5) and whose zeroes are (2 , 0), (3 , 0), and (5 , 0) is: [tex]y = \dfrac{1}{6}(x-2)(x-3)(x-5)[/tex] and it can be determine by arithmetic operations.

Given :

A cubic polynomial whose zeroes are (2 , 0), (3 , 0), and (5 , 0).Cubic polynomial equation passes through (0 , -5).

Arithmetic operations can be used to determine the cubic polynomial equation. The generalised cubic polynomial equation is given by:

[tex]y = K(x-a)(x-b)(x-c)[/tex]

Where, K is constant and a, b, and c are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial equation. Therefore, the value of a, b, and c are 2, 3, and 5 respectively.

[tex]y = K(x-2)(x-3)(x-5)[/tex]   ----- (1)

It is given that cubic polynomial equation passes through (0 , -5). So, put x = 0 and y = -5 in equation (1) to evaluate the value of K.

What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line and passes through the point (6, 2)?

Answers

Hey there! :D

So, when you find something perpendicular, you are finding the opposite reciprocal. 

The slope is 1/2 because:

y=mx+b <== it is in this form; m is equal to slope. 

Flip the 2 and 1 and make it negative. 

2/1= -2

We already know "C" and "D" aren't the options. Now, we can just plug in the points given to see if it works. Plug in the set of points (6,2)

y=-2x+14

2=-2(6)+14

2=-12+14

2=2 <== this works. This is our answer. Let's just make sure by checking the other one. 

y=-2x-2

2=-2(6)-2

2=-12-2

2=-14 <== that is not true.

Numerous web sites and videos stand ready to show you how to construct a bisector. It is far easier to get help from one of those than here.

The basic idea is that you set your compass to have a distance somewhat greater than half the distance between the points you want to bisect. (Setting it to approximately their distance apart works pretty well.) Then you make arcs on either side of the line between the points.

Use the same compass setting to make arcs from both the points you want to bisect. The arcs should be drawn so they have points of intersection. The line between those intersection points is the bisector of the segment (and figure) between the given points.

That process of drawing the arcs and using a straightedge to connect their points of intersection constitutes the construction you are asked to do.

In (3), the point S is where your bisector crosses the given curve.

In (4), the two bisectors of AB and BC will be expected to cross each other at approximately the midpoint between A and C.

First of all find the factors of above expression by grouping method.

[tex]V=b^2(b+3)-4(b+3)[/tex]

[tex]V=(b+3)(b^2-4)[/tex]

[tex]V=(b+3)(b^2-2^2)[/tex]

Answers

To get the square root of imperfect square we can use the formula , which is usually accurate to about two decimal places,
√X =√S +(X-S)2√S
Where, X = the number you want the square roof of, and S is the closest square you know to x.
For example 75 is an imperfect square
Thus, X=75 and thus the nearest number S = 81, this ,means √81 =9.
Putting this into the formula;
√75= 9+(75-81)/2/2(9)
      =  9 + -6/18 
      = 9-0.33333 = 8.667
= 8.667, thus the square root of 75 is 8.66
