Answer:

  • x - 5 and 2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given</h3>
  • Area of rectangle = 2x^2 - 7x - 15
<h3>To find</h3>
  • Dimensions of rectangle
<h3>Solution</h3>

<u>Since the area is the product of the sides, let's try to factorize the given:</u>

  • 2x^2 - 7x - 15=
  • 2x^2 - 10x + 3x - 15 =
  • 2x(x - 5) + 3(x - 5) =
  • (x - 5)(2x + 3)

<u>So the dimensions are:</u>

  • x - 5 and 2x + 3

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The volume of the  larger cube is V=1,331\ cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ---> the length of the smaller cube

y ---> the length of the larger cube

we know that

the volume of a cube is equal to

V=b^3

where

b is the length side of the cube

we have

x=y-5 ----> equation A

The volume of the smaller cube is 216 cm^3

so

substitute in the formula of volume

216=x^3

solve for x

x=\sqrt[3]{216}\ cm

x=6\ cm

<em>Find the value of y</em>

x=y-5

6=y-5

y=6+5=11\ cm

<em>Find the volume of the larger cube</em>

V=y^3

substitute the value of y

V=11^3

V=1,331\ cm^3

On a coordinate plane, line P Q goes through (negative 6, 4) and (4, negative 4). Point R On a coordinate plane, a line goes thr
Nitella [24]

Answer:

x + 2y = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line goes through (-4, 0) and (4, -4).

The slope is (-4 - 0) / (4 - -4) = -4 / (4 + 4) = -4 / 8 = -1/2.

Since we are looking for the equation of the line parallel to that line, the slope will be the same.

We have an equation of y = -1/2x + b. We have a point at (2, 3). We can then say that y = 3 when x = 2.

3 = (-1/2) * 2 + b

b - 1 = 3

b = 4.

So, we have y = -1/2x + 4.

1/2x + y = 4

x + 2y = 8.

Hope this helps!

Find where the slope of the curve is defined:<br> x^2y-xy^2=4
Natali [406]
You do the implcit differentation, then solve for y' and check where this is defined. 
In your case: Differentiate implicitly: 2xy + x²y' - y² - x*2yy' = 0 
Solve for y': y'(x²-2xy) +2xy - y² = 0 
y' = (2xy-y²) / (x²-2xy) 
Check where defined: y' is not defined if the denominator becomes zero, i.e. 
x² - 2xy = 0 x(x - 2y) = 0 
This has formal solutions x=0 and y=x/2. Now we check whether these values are possible for the initially given definition of y: 
0^2*y - 0*y^2 =? 4 0 =? 4 
This is impossible, hence the function is not defined for 0, and we can disregard this. 
x^2*(x/2) - x(x/2)^2 =? 4 x^3/2 - x^3/4 = 4 x^3/4 = 4 x^3=16 x^3 = 16 x = cubicroot(16) 
This is a possible value for y, so we have a point where y is defined, but not y'. 
The solution to all of it is hence D - { cubicroot(16) }, where D is the domain of y (which nobody has asked for in this example :-). 
(Actually, the check whether 0 is in D is superfluous: If you write as solution D - { 0, cubicroot(16) }, this is also correct - only it so happens that 0 is not in D, so the set difference cannot take it out of there ...). 
If someone asks for that D, you have to solve the definition for y and find that domain - I don't know of any [general] way to find the domain without solving for the explicit function).
