Mike wants to put 150 square feet of artificial turf in his front yard. This is the maximum area
of artificial turf allowed by his homeowners association. He wants to have a rectangular area
of turf with length one foot less than 3 times the width. Find the length and width. Round to
the nearest tenth of a foot.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the rectangular area = Length * width

A = LW ...... 1

If he wants to have a rectangular area  of turf with length one foot less than 3 times the width, then

L = 3W - 1 ...... 2

Substitute 2 into 1

A = (2W-1)W

A = 2W^2 - W

Since area = 150sq.ft

150 = 2W^2 - W

2W^2 - W - 150 = 0

Factorize

2W^2 - W - 150 = 0

W = 1±√1+4(300)/2(2)

W =  1±√1201/2(2)

W = 1±34.655/4

W = 35.655/4

W = 8.91375

W = 8.9 (to nearest tenth)

Get the length

L = A/W

L = 150/8.9

L = 16.85

L = 16.6ft

Hence the length is 16.6ft and the width is 8.9ft

Select all polynomials that have (x – 3) as a factor.

Answers

3 Answers: A, C and D

In other words, everything but choice B

==========================================================

Explanation:

You could use polynomial long division or synthetic division to check each answer. The shorter route of the two options is synthetic division

There's a much faster way that doesn't involve complicated division. Recall that if (x-k) is a factor of p(x), then p(k) = 0. This is a special case of the remainder theorem.

------------------------------------------------

Here's a fairly short proof:

Consider a polynomial q(x) such that

p(x) = (x-k)q(x)

which shows that (x-k) is a factor of p(x). We don't need to worry about what q(x) actually is since it will go away effectively.

If we plug x = k into the p(x) function, we get

p(x) = (x-k)q(x)

p(k) = (k-k)q(k)

p(k) = 0*q(k)

p(k) = 0

------------------------------------------------

How is this useful? Well we can note that the factor (x-3) is in the form (x-k) where k = 3.

So the idea is to plug x = 3 into each of the four functions and see which result in 0. If we get 0 as an output, then we have a factor. Otherwise, it's not a factor.

-------------------------------------------------

Plug x = 3 into the first function

A(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 - 4x + 3

A(3) = 3^3 - 2(3)^2 - 4(3) + 3

A(3) = 0

This shows (x-3) is a factor of the function A(x)

------------------------------------------------

Repeat for the second function

B(x) = x^3 + 3x^2 - 2x - 6

B(3) = 3^3 + 3(3)^2 - 2(3) - 6

B(3) = 42

We don't get an output of 0, so (x-3) cannot be a factor of B(x)

-----------------------------------------------

Now onto the third function

C(x) = x^4 - 2x^3 - 27

C(3) = 3^4 - 2(3)^3 - 27

C(3) = 0

So (x-3) is a factor of C(x)

----------------------------------------------

Finally the last function

D(x) = x^4 - 20x - 21

D(3) = 3^4 - 20(3) - 21

D(3) = 0

Therefore (x-3) is a factor of D(x) as well.

The remainder theorem will be used to identify the polynomial that has a remainder of zero when divided by (x - 3)

The polynomials that have 0 as a factor are;

(C) C(x) = x⁴ - 2·x³ - 27(D) D(x) = x⁴ - 20·x - 21

Reason:

According to the remainder theorem, we have;

The remainder following the division of a polynomial, by (x - a) is P(a)

Therefore, (x - 3) is a factor of the polynomial P(x) where P(3) = 0

For option (A), we have; A(x) = x³ - 2·x² - 4·x + 3

The remainder when (x³ - 2·x² - 4·x + 3) is divided by (x - 3) is therefore;

A(3) = 3³ - 2 × 2² - 4 × 2 + 3 = 14

Therefore, (x - 3) is not a factor of A(x) = x³ - 2·x² - 4·x + 3

For option (B), we have;

B(x) = x³ + 3·x² - 2·x - 6

The remainder when B(x) is divided by (x - 3) is therefore;

B(3) = 3³ + 3×3² - 2×3 - 6 42

Therefore, (x - 3) is not a factor of B(x) = x³ + 3·x² - 2·x - 6

For option (C), we have;

C(x) = x⁴ - 2·x³ - 27

The remainder when C(x) is divided by (x - 3) is therefore;

C(3) = 3⁴ - 2×3³ - 27 = 0

Therefore;

(x - 3) is a factor of C(x) = x⁴ - 2·x³ - 27

For option (D), we have;

D(x) = x⁴ - 20·x - 21

The remainder when D(x) is divided by (x - 3) is given as follows;

D(3) = 3⁴ - 20×3 - 21 = 0

Therefore;

(x - 3) is a factor of D(x) = x⁴ - 20·x - 21

Courtney walked from her house to the beach at a constant speed of 444 kilometers per hour, and then walked from the beach to the park at a constant speed of 555 kilometers per hour. The entire walk took 222 hours and the total distance Courtney walked was 888 kilometers.

Answers

Answer:

I suppose that each number is repeated 3 times, the actual question is:

Courtney walked from her house to the beach at a constant speed of 4 kilometers per hour, and then walked from the beach to the park at a constant speed of 5 kilometers per hour. The entire walk took 2 hours and the total distance Courtney walked was 8 kilometers.

Now, remember the relation:

Distance = Speed*Time

Let's define:

D1 = distance between Courtney's house and the beach.

D2 = distance between the beach and the park.

T1 = time that it took the first walk.

T2 = time that it took the second walk.

We know that the total distance Courtney walked is 8km, then:

D1 + D2 = 8km.

And we also know that the entire walk took 2 hours, then:

T1 + T2 = 2h.

We also have the equations:

D1 = 4km/h*T1

D2 = 5km/h*T2.

Then we have a system of equations:

D1 + D2 = 8km

T1 + T2 = 2h

D1 = 4km/h*T1

D2 = 5km/h*T2.

To solve this, first let's replace equations 3 and 4 in the first equation:

4km/h*T1 + 5km/h*T2 = 8km

Now we have only two equations left:

4km/h*T1 + 5km/h*T2 = 8km

T1 + T2 = 2h

Now we can isolate one of the variables in the second equation and then replace it in the first equation, i will isolate T1:

T1 = 2h - T2.

Replacing this in the first equation gives:

4km/h*(2h - T2) + 5km/h*T2 = 8km

Now let's solve this for T2.

8km - 4km/h*T2 + 5km/h*T2 =  8km

8km + 1km/h*T2 = 8km

1km/h*T2 = 0

from this, we have T2 = 0

This would mean that T1 = 2h.

Then:

D1 = 4km/h*2h = 8km.

T2 = 0

D2 = 5km/h*0 = 0.

This happens because the numbers in the problem were not well thought.

You can see that when she spends the 2 hours walking at the smaller speed, she already reaches the total distance, then if she walked any amount of time at the larger speed, the total distance would be more than 8km.

A store sells new video games for $25 each. Used video games sell for $10 each. Jacob is buying 3 new video games and x used video games. Which equation can be used to find y, the total price Jacob must pay in dollars?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = 75 + 10x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

New Video Games

[tex]Cost = \$25[/tex]

[tex]Number = 3[/tex]

Used Video Games

[tex]Cost = \$10[/tex]

[tex]Number = x[/tex]

Required

Determine the amount spent (y)

First, we need to determine the total spent on new games

1 new game = $25

3 new games will be: 3 * $25

Next, we determine the total spent on old games

1 used game = $10

x used games will be: x * $10

So, total amount y, is:

[tex]y = 3 * 25 + x * 10[/tex]

[tex]y = 75 + 10x[/tex]

a suitcase measures 24 inches long and 18 inches high, what is the diagonal length of the suitcase?

Answers

Answer:

The diagonal is 30 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming a rectangular suitcase (with right angles), we can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this

a² + b² = c²

so we plug our two values to find the diagonal (hypotenuse)

24² + 18² = c²

576 + 324 = c²

900 = c²

c = √900

c = 30

The diagonal is 30 inches

Answer:

the diagonal is 30 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

you assume a suitcase is a rectangular shape, and the diagonal length makes 2 right triangles; therefore you can use Pythagorean theorem

[tex]a^{2}[/tex] + [tex]b^{2}[/tex] = [tex]c^{2}[/tex] ; where a = 24, b = 18 and c is the diagonal

[tex]24^{2}[/tex] + [tex]18^{2}[/tex] = [tex]c^{2}[/tex]

[tex]c^{2}[/tex] = 576 + 324

[tex]c^{2}[/tex] = 900

c = 30 inches

Given a term in a geometric sequence and the common ratio. Find the explicit formula . A) a 3 =-36 , r = 6 b) a 6 =64 , r = 2

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit formula for a GP is expressed as

Tn = ar^{n-1}

a is the first term

n is the number of terms

r is the common ratio

a) If a3 = 36 and r = 6

a3 = ar^3-1

a3 = ar^2 = 36

ar^2 = 36

a(6)^2 = 36

36a = 36

a = 1

Get the nth term

Tn = 1(6)^{n-1}

Tn = 6^{n-1}

b)  If a6 = 64 and r = 2

a6 = ar^6-1

a6 = ar^5 = 64

ar^5 = 64

a(2)^2 = 64

4a = 64

a = 16

Get the nth term

Tn = 16(2)^{n-1}

Tn = 16*(2^n/2)

Tn = 8(2^n)
