Ralph wants to build a rectangular deck with a predefined area of 66 feet squared. One side of the deck will be 5 feet longer than the other. To find the side lengths, he first writes the equation (x)(x+5)=66 and later simplifies (x-6)(x+11)=0 it to , where x is the length of the shorter side. Which of these are the side lengths, in feet, of the rectangular deck? Select all that apply

Answers

Answer:

The shorter side is 6 ft and the longer side is 11 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The options are not given, but we could solve and arrive at an answer

say the shorter side is x

and the longer side is x+5

we know that the area of a rectangle is given as

x*(x+5)=66

open the bracket

x^2+5x=66

x^2+5x-66=0

Find two factors of  -66  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   5 .

the factors are 11 and -6

splitting the middle term using the two factors  11  and  -6

x2 +11x - 6x - 66=0

x(x+11)-6(x+11)=0

(x-6)=0

x=6

(x+11)=0

x=-11

The shorter side is 6 ft and the longer side is 11 ft

Find cosα given that sinα = 5/13 and α is in quadrant II

Answers

Answer:

cos α = - [tex]\frac{12}{13}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since α is in second quadrant then cosα < 0

Using the identity

sin²α + cos²α = 1 then

cosα = - [tex]\sqrt{1-sin^2\alpha }[/tex]

         = - [tex]\sqrt{1-(\frac{5}{13})^2 }[/tex]

         = - [tex]\sqrt{1-\frac{25}{169} }[/tex]

         = - [tex]\sqrt{\frac{144}{169} }[/tex]

         = - [tex]\frac{12}{13}[/tex]

solve: |2x - 1| - 2 = 7

Answers

Answer:

x =5

Step-by-step explanation:

transfer -2 to the other side it turns to +2

|2x-1|=7 +2

2x-1 =9

transfer -1 to the other side it turns to +1

2x=10

Divide both sides by 2

2x /2 = 10/2

x= 5

ok so first u add 2 to both sides
|2x-1|=5
then youre doing 2 equations
2x-1= 5 2x-1=-5
2x=6. 2x=-4
x=3. x=-2

Problem 1

Answers:

Real = sqrt(49), 5/6, 12.5, 8/12, 225, sqrt(24)/16, sqrt(32)

Not real = sqrt(-20)  and  sqrt(-16)/9

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

Explanation:

Anything involving a square root of a negative number will result in a non-real answer. Anything else is real.

Traditionally y = sqrt(x) has a domain of nonnegative numbers. If x >= 0, then y is some real number. If x < 0, then we'll need to use the imaginary number i = sqrt(-1).

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

Problem 2

Answers:  

Rational = sqrt(49), 5/8, 12.5, 8/12, and 225

Irrational = sqrt(24)/16, sqrt(32)

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

Explanation:

Ignore the non-real numbers. Focus solely on the real values.

A rational number is where we can write it as a ratio of two integers. An example is 5/8 since 5 and 8 are integers. The denominator can never be zero.

Decimal values that terminate can be written as a fraction. For instance, 12.5 = 125/10.

Square roots of perfect squares are also rational. For example sqrt(49) = 7 = 7/1

Something like sqrt(32) is not rational because we can't write it in the form p/q with p,q being integers. We say it is irrational.

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

Problem 3

Answers:

Perfect Squares = 225

Non-perfect squares = everything else

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

Explanation:

A perfect square is of the form x^2, where x is a positive integer.

The only perfect square listed is 225 because 225 = 15^2. Here x = 15.

Note: a perfect square is an integer itself.

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

Problem 4

As discussed earlier, rational numbers are fractions of integers. So we have something of the form p/q where p,q are integers and q is nonzero. An example of a rational number is p/q = 7/8 with p = 7 and q = 8.

Irrational numbers are ones that cannot be written as p/q. A famous example of an irrational number is pi = 3.14, but we could do something like sqrt(17) for instance as well. The stuff under the square root must be a non-perfect square.

Perfect squares are integers in the form x^2, with x being an integer also. A visual way to think of perfect squares is to think of a square with side length x, so its area is x^2. If x = 9, then its area is x^2 = 9^2 = 81, so 81 is a perfect square. We only consider whole number side lengths.

slope = 1/7
y-intercept = (5,0)
slope = 7
y-intercept = (5,0)
slope = -1/7
y-intercept = (0,5)
slope = -7
y-intercept = (0,5)

Answers

Answer:

slope = - 7, y- intercept = (0, 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 7x + 5 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 7 and y- intercept c = 5 ⇒ (0, 5 )

Answer: (6) a      (7) b     (8) d     (9) d

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Natural Numbers:            1, 2, 3, ...

b) Whole Numbers:          0, 1, 2, 3, ...     (add zero to the Natural numbers)

c) Integers:   ..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...   (add negatives to the Whole numbers)

d) Rationals: Add terminating and repeating decimals to Integers.

************

e) Irrationals: Non-repeating decimals that are non-terminating.  This is its own category so cannot be a Rational number or above.

f) Real Numbers: ALL of the above (a - e) are Real numbers.

6) The variable (d) represents the number of dogs.  You cannot have a fraction of dog (rational), a negative number of dogs (integer), or zero dogs (whole) so the variable will be a NATURAL number.

7) The variable (b) represents the number of baths. You cannot have a fraction of a bath (rational), a negative number of baths (integer), but you can have zero baths so the variable will be a WHOLE number.

(8) The variable (n) represents the number of nails.  You can have a fraction of a nail so the variable will be a RATIONAL number.

(9) The variable (h) represents the number of pounds of hair.  You can have a fraction of a pound so the variable will be a RATIONAL number.

Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is:

y= -3/4x -6

Step-by-step explanation:

The y int is the constant.

The slope is the coefficient of the X

Hope this helps!

The equation of the line with a slope of -3/4 and y-intercept of -6 is; 4y + 3x = -24.

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line usually takes the form;

y = Mx + c

where; m = slope and c = y-intercept

Therefore; the equation of the required line is;

y = (-3/4)x + (-6)

4y = -3x - 24

4y + 3x = -24
