Given the function f (x) = x² + 8x + 7, what are the zeros of f?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = - 7, x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the zeros let f(x) = 0 , that is

x² + 8x + 7 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 7) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 8)

The factors are + 7 and + 1 , since

7 × 1 = + 7 and 7 + 1 = + 8 , then

x² + 8x + 7 = 0

(x + 7)(x + 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 7 = 0 ⇒ x = - 7

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

A rectangle has a length of 24cm and breadth is 6cm.Express the breadth as a percentage of the length

Answers

Answer:

Breadth is 25% of the length

Step-by-step explanation:

Length, l = 24 cm

Breadth, b = 6cm

Expressing the breadth as a percentage of the length :

(Breadth / length) * 100%

(6 / 24) * 100%

0.25 * 100%

= 25%

Hence, the breadth is 25% of the length

Find the perimeter and area of a rectangle with a length of 3.4cm and a width of 4.3cm

Answers

Answer:

perimeter of a rectangle

=2×(L+B)

=2×(4.3+3.4)

=2×7.7

=15.4

Area of a rectangle

=L×B

=4.3×3.4

=146.2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle of length L and width W is

P = 2L + 2W.  In this particular problem, P = 2(3.4 cm) + 2(4.3 cm), or

P = 6.8 cm + 8.6 cm, or P = 15.4 cm

The formula for the area of a rectangle of length L and width W is A = L * W.

In this problem, the area is A = (3.4 cm)(4.3 cm) = 14.62 cm^2  =  A

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the percentage increase:

First: work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

Increase = New Number - Original Number.

Then: divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.

% increase = Increase ÷ Original Number × 100.

Mrs. Harbrook can choose from two rectangular pool sizes. The pool manufacturer provides her with the area of the pool, but she needs to find the dimensions in order to determine if the pool will fit in her yard.




If the area of the pool is x2−17x+72, what are possible expressions to represent the length L and the width W ?

Answers

Answer:8 or 9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The area of the pool is  [tex]A=x^2-17x+72[/tex]

The area is in the form of a quadratic equation

So, the roots of the equation will give the length and width of the pool

[tex]\Rightarrow x^2-17x+72=0\\\Rightarrow x^2-8x-9x+72=0\\\Rightarrow x(x-8)-9(x-8)=\\\Rightarrow (x-8)(x-9)=0\\\Rightarrow x=8\ or\ 9[/tex]

Therefore length and width can either be [tex]\text{8 or 9 ft}[/tex].

[tex]\Rightarrow L=8\ ft,W=9\ ft\ \text{or}\ L=9\ ft,W=8\ ft[/tex]

Angie packed same-size cubes into a rectangular prism. Image shows a base of cubes 3 units long, 2 units wide, and with a column of cubes 1 cube wide and 7 cubes tall. Which expression could be used to find the number of cubes that would fill the prism? A. ( 3 + 2 ) + 7 B. ( 3 × 2 ) × 6 C. ( 3 × 2 ) + 7 D. ( 3 × 2 ) × 7

Answers

Answer:

I believe it's C. (3 x 2) + 7!

The expression that could be used to find the number of cubes that would fill the prism will be (3 x 2) x 7. The correct option is D.

What is a rectangular prism?

A rectangular prism is a polyhedron in geometry that has two parallel and congruent bases. It also goes by the name cuboid. Six faces, each with a rectangle shape and twelve edges, make up a rectangular prism. It is referred to as a prism because of the length of its cross-section.

The rectangular prism has a base of cubes that is 3 units long and 2 units wide, which means it has an area of 3 x 2 = 6 square units.

The prism is also 7 cubes tall. To find the total number of cubes in the rectangular prism, we need to multiply the area of the base by the height of the prism. Therefore, the expression that could be used to find the number of cubes that would fill the prism is:

(3 x 2) x 7 = 6 x 7 = 42

So the answer is D. (3 x 2) x 7.

The missing side of ABC = 13
The missing side of FDE = 24



Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

Pythagorean Theorem is for right-angled triangle only.

The missing side of ABC is:
12² + 5² = AC²

169 = AC²

AC = √169

AC = 13


The missing side of FDE is:
DE² + 10² = 26²

DE² = 26² - 10²

DE² = 576

DE = √576

DE = 24
