A rectangle is 9 ft long and 40 in. wide. What is its area in square feet? (Note: 1 ft = 12 in.)

ivolga24 [154]

Answer: first option

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make the following conversion:

40 inches to feet (Knowing that 1 feet=12 inches):

$(40in)(\frac{1ft}{12in})=3.333ft$

The formula for calculate the are of a rectangle is:

$A=l*w$

Where l is the lenght and w is the width.

Therefore, when you substitute values, you obtain the following result:

$l=9ft\\w=3.33ft\\\\A=(9ft)(3.333ft)\\A=30ft$

What is the product? StartFraction 3 k Over k + 1 EndFraction times StartFraction k squared minus 1 Over 3 k cubed EndFraction S

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

StartFraction negative 1 Over k cubed EndFraction

Step-by-step explanation:

3k / (k + 1) × (k²- 1) / 3k³

= 3k(k² - 1) / (k + 1)(3k³)

= 3k³ - 3k / 3k⁴ + 3k³

= -3k / 3k⁴

= -1/k³

StartFraction k + 1 Over k squared EndFraction

(k + 1) / k²

StartFraction k minus 1 Over k squared EndFraction

(k - 1)/k²

StartFraction negative 1 Over k cubed EndFraction

= -1/k³

StartFraction 1 Over k EndFraction

= 1/k
