Answer:


the science fiction books and five mystery books in each package. This is because 6 is the highest common factor of both 48 and 30, and 6 x 8 = 48 and 6 x 5 = 30.

The rectangle below has an area of 8x^5+12x^3+20x^28x 5 +12x 3 +20x 2 8, x, start superscript, 5, end superscript, plus, 12, x,
juin [17]

Answer:

The width is: w(x)=4x^2

The length is l(x)=2x^2+3x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rectangle has area given algebraically by the function:

a(x)=8x^5+12x^3+20x^2

The width of the rectangle is the greatest common factor of 8x^5,  12x^3 and 20x^2

That is the width is: w(x)=4x^2

We now divide the area by the width to obtain the length of the rectangle:

l(x)=\frac{8x^5+12x^3+20x^2}{4x^2}

This simplifies to:

l(x)=\frac{8x^5}{4x^2}+\frac{12x^3}{4x^2}+\frac{20x^2}{4x^2}

l(x)=2x^2+3x+5

Consider the function represented by 9x + 3y= 12 with x as the independent variable. How can this function be written
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer: f(x) = -3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is represented by

9x + 3y= 12

This is a linear equation with x as the independent variable. This means that if x is the independent variable, the y is the dependent variable. The values of y depends on the values of x. In order to represent the function, 9x + 3y= 12, we would rearrange the function such that y stands alone on the left hand side of the equation. This becomes

9x + 3y= 12

Subtracting 9x from both sides,

9x -9x + 3y = 12 - 9x

3y = 12-9x

Dividing the lefthand side and right hand side of the equation by 3, it becomes

3y/3 = (12-9x)/3

y= -3x + 4

using function notation,

y = f(x) = -3x + 4

Which is the graph of f(x) = (x + 3)(x – 2)? On a coordinate plane, a parabola opens up. It goes through (negative 3, 0), has a
amm1812

Answer:

On a coordinate plane, a parabola opens up

It goes through (negative 3, 0), has a vertex at (negative 0.5, negative 6.25), and goes through (2, 0).

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x + 3)(x – 2)

We know that parabola opens up since the x^2 term is be positive

it has zeros at  x=-3 and x=2  

x+3 =0  and x-2 =0   from the zero product property

The vertex is  halfway between the zeros

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

x=-1/2

f(-1/2) = (-1/2+3) (-1/2-2) = 2.5 * -2.5 =-6.25

The vertex is (-1/2, -6.25)

Can you find the value of x?​
Taya2010 [7]

Answer: 5

Step-by-step explanation: We can use the Pythagorean Theorum here.

4^2 + x^2 = 7^2

16+ x^2 = 49

x^2 = 25

x = 5
