Area is given by the formula
  Area = length*width
Filling in the given information, we have
  51 = (2m+7)*(m-2)
  2m² +3m -65 = 0
  (m -5)(2m +13) - 0
  m = -13/2 or 5
Since dimensions of physical objects are non-negative, the value of m is 5.

m = 5 because if you create an equation you get 2m^2 + 3m - 65 = 0 then you factor find the two roots and take the positive one and viola your answer is 5

Effectus [21]

Answer:

Option C

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information

Cost of investment=$20000

Selling price=$22000

Profit=Selling price-Cost of investment=22000-20000=2000

Return on investment=profit/cost of investment

RoI=\frac {2000\times 100}{20000}=10%

What is the sum of the polynomials (m+n+3)(m+n+4)
poizon [28]
(m + n + 3)(m + n + 4)
First distribute the m in the first set of parentheses to the second set of parentheses.  Do the same process with the n and the 3.
m^2 + mn + 4m + mn + n^2 + 4n + 3m +3n + 12
Combine Like terms. Final Answer:
m^2 + n^2 + 2mn + 7m + 7n + 12

Caswell started studying how the number of branches on his tree grows over time. The relationship between the elapsed time ttt,
ipn [44]

Answer:

t =log(20) / 0.3 = 10*log(20) / log(1,000) - years - when the tree will have 100 branches.

Step-by-step explanation:

100 = 5 * 10^(0.3t), solve for t

Divide both sides by 5:

20 =10^(0.3t)

Take the log of both sides:

0.3t =log(20)

Divide both sides by 0.3:

Multiply the RHS by 10 / 10

t =log(20) / 0.3 = 10*log(20) / log(1,000) - years - when the tree will have 100 branches.

When dividing with polynomials, the goal is to determine how many times the dividend divides evenly into the?
kkurt [141]
Whether dividing constant terms or polynomials, we always have definitive terms when it comes to division. Suppose we say, 10x divided by 2. The dividend is the 10x and the divisor is the 2. In other words, the dividend is the number to be divided by the divisor, to obtain the answer called the quotient.

When dividing polynomials, your main goal is to be able to divide the dividend evenly into the <em>divisor</em>. For example, we divide x²+2x+1 by x+1. The first thing you're going to focus is, what term will completely divide the first term of the polynomial? That would be x. Why? Because when you multiply x with x+1, the product is x²+x. When you subtract this from the polynomial, the x² will cancel out. All you have to do is subtract x from 2x, yielding x. Then, you carry down the last term of the equation: +1. You do the steps again. The term that will completely divide x+1 by x+1 is 1. When you subtract the two, you will come up with zero. That means there is no remainder. The polynomial is divisible by the divisor. 
                          x + 1
                        ------------------------------------
                  x+1| x²+2x+1
                        - x²+x
                         ----------------------
                                 x +1
                               - x +
