The area of a rectangle is 42ft^2, and the length of the rectangle is 11 less than three times the width. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

7 ft ×6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle= length ×width

Let the length and width of the rectangle be L and W ft respectively.

Form 2 equations using the given information:

LW= 42 -----(1)

L= 3W -11 -----(2)

Substitute (2) into (1):

(3W -11)(W)= 42

Expand:

3W² -11W= 42

3W² -11W -42= 0

[tex]\boxed{x = \frac{ - b± \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac } }{2a} }[/tex]

Applying quadratic formula:

[tex]W= \frac{ - ( - 11)± \sqrt{( - 11) {}^{2} - 4(3)( - 42) } }{2(3)} [/tex]

[tex]W= \frac{ 11± \sqrt{625 } }{6} [/tex]

[tex]W= \frac{ 11± 25}{6} [/tex]

W= 6 or W= [tex] - \frac{7}{3} [/tex] (reject)

Substitute W= 6 into (1):

L(6)= 42

L= 42 ÷6

L= 7

Thus the dimensions of the rectangle is 7 ft ×6 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of sines can be used to solve a triangle when two sides and an angle opposite one of them are given.

__

  sin(B)/b = sin(C)/c

  sin(B) = (b/c)sin(C) . . . . solve for sin(B)

  sin(B) = (14/28)sin(91°) ≈ 0.49992385

The angle is found using the inverse sine function:

              The quotient of b and 3 is greater than or equal to 19.

[tex]\diamond\large\blue\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Answer and how to solve:-}}}}[/tex]

       

           ✥First, the word "quotient" indicates that we divide.

Here we have "the quotient of b and 3", so we divide b by 3:-

[tex]\hookrightarrow[/tex][tex]\sf{b\div3}[/tex]

Now, this expression is greater than or equal to 19:-

[tex]\sf{b\div3\geq 19}[/tex]

How to Solve for b

✳︎ Multiply by 3 on both sides:-

[tex]\sf{b\geq 19\times3}[/tex]

On simplification,

[tex]\sf{b\geq 57}[/tex]

So the values of b greater than or equal to 57 will make this inequality true.

Let's solve another one.

✳︎ A number y increased by 5 is at least -21.

First, "increased" means we add 5.

Since y is increased by 5, we add 5 to y:-

[tex]y+5[/tex]

Now this expression is at least -21, which means it can't be less than -21, thus, it's greater than or equal to  -21, which looks as follows:-

[tex]\sf{y+5 \geq -21}[/tex]

[tex]\rule{300}{1}[/tex]

[Solving for y]

Subtract 5 on both sides:-

[tex]\sf{y \geq -21-5}[/tex]

On simplification,

[tex]\sf{y \geq -26}[/tex]

So the values of y greater than or equal to  -26 will make this inequality true.

Good luck with your studies.

What is the average rate of change of the function over the interval x = 0 to x = 4? f(x)=2x−13x 5 enter your answer, as a fraction, in the box.

Answers

The average rate of change of the function over the interval x = 0 to x = 4 is: 61/400.

What is the Average Rate of Change of a Function?

Average rate of change = f(b) - f(a) / b - a

Given the function, f(x) = 2x - 1 / 3x + 5.

a = 0, f(a) = 2x - 1 / 3x + 5 = 2(0) - 1 / 3(0) + 5 = -1/5

b = 4, f(b) = 2x - 1 / 3x + 5 = 2(4) - 1 / 3(4) + 5 = 7/17

Average rate of change = 7/17 - (-1/5) / 4 - 0 = 61/400

Solve the equation by factoring. 2x^2 + 6x = -4​

Answer:

x=-2   x=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2 + 6x = -4​

Add 4 to each side

2x^2 + 6x +4= -4+4

2x^2 + 6x +4=0

Factor out 2

2( x^2 +3x+2) = 0

Divide by 2

x^2 +3x +2 =0

( x+2)(x+1) =0 ​​

Using the zero product property

x+2 =0  x+1 =0

x=-2   x=-1

Answer:

x = -1, -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Bring the constant term to the left hand side :

2x² + 6x = -42x² + 6x + 4 = 0

Divide throughout by 2 :

(2x² + 6x + 4)/2 = 0/2x² + 3x + 2 = 0

Splitting the middle term :

x² + x + 2x + 2 = 0x(x + 1) + 2(x + 1) = 0

(x + 1)(x + 2)

Finding the zeros :

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = -1x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = -2

Answer:

  y = 3x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The two pairs of x and y values are used to find the slope of the line. That and one of the pairs is used to find the y-intercept. These values are put into the slope-intercept equation to give the equation of the line through the two points.

__

Each (x, y) pair represents a point on a graph. The slope-intercept equation for a line relates all the (x, y) pairs that lie on the line. That equation is ...

  y = mx +b . . . . . . where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept

slope

The slope is the "steepness" of the line. It is positive when the line goes up to the right, and negative when the line goes down to the right. It is 0 for a horizontal line.

The slope is found from (x, y) pairs using the formula ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) . . . . . . where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) refer to different pairs

  m = (8 -(-1))/(4 -1) = 9/3 = 3 . . . . using the (x, y) values from the table

y-intercept

The y-intercept (b) is the y-value where the line crosses the y-axis. It can be found by rearranging the slope-intercept equation shown above:

  b = y - mx . . . . . . . for a line with slope m and a point (x, y) on the line

Using the first point listed in the table with the value of m we just found, we see that b is ...

  b = -1 - 3(1) = -4 . . . . . . for (x, y) = (1, -1) and m = 3

equation

Now that we have found m=3 and b=-4 for the points in the table, we can put these values in the slope-intercept equation:

  y = mx +b

  y = 3x -4 . . . . . equation of the relationship in the table

the volume of a hemisphere is half the volume of a sphere, so

V = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] πr³ = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] πr³ , then

A triangle has sides of lengths 16,14 and 50 .is the triangle right angle triangle?​

Answers

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

using the converse of Pythagoras' identity

If the square on the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other 2 sides, then the triangle is right.

longest side = 50 ⇒ 50² = 2500

16² + 14² = 256 + 196 = 452

since 452 ≠ 2500 then the triangle is not right

❒ Question -:

A triangle has sides of lengths 16,14 and 50. Is the triangle right angle triangle?

❒ Explanation -:

We will solve this question using Pythagoras theorem.

We know,

[tex] \small \boxed{\rm{ c² = a² + b²}}[/tex]

[tex] \small\rm{Where,} [/tex] [tex]\small\sf{ c > a \: and \: c > b}[/tex]

[tex] \small\sf{ 50² = 16² + 14²}[/tex]

[tex]2500 = 256+ 196[/tex]

[tex]2500≠452[/tex]

[tex] \small\bf{ c² ≠ a² + b²}[/tex]

Hence, the triangle is not a right-angled triangle.

Joaquin is constructing the perpendicular bisector of ab. What should be his first step?
(100 points cuz why not)

Answers

Answer:

D. Open the compass so that the distance from the two points of the compass is wider than half the length of [tex]\over{AB}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

To construct a perpendicular for [tex]\over{AB}[/tex], we must first take a compass & take the distance of its arms wider than half the length of [tex]\over{AB}[/tex].

This is done in order to get two intersecting arcs in the top & bottom of [tex]\over{AB}[/tex] so that a perpendicular bisector can be drawn through it.

After two intersecting lines are drawn below & above [tex]\over{AB}[/tex], draw a line joining these 2 points through their points of intersection. The point where it intersects [tex]\over{AB}[/tex] is the middle-most point of [tex]\over{AB}[/tex] & now a perpendicular bisector of [tex]\over{AB}[/tex] is constructed.

Each face is a rectangle. The top and bottom are the same. The front and back are the same. The left and right sides are the same. See image.

Area of a rectangle is:

A = l × w

Area of the top:

5 × 10 = 50

Area of the bottom also 50.

Area of the left side:

1 × 5 = 5

Area of the right side is also 5.

Area of the front:

1 × 10 =10

Area of the back is also 10.

ADD up all 6 areas:

50+50+5+5+10+10

Surface area = 130

Area has square units.
