Answer:

6 inches of tape

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total amount of tape that Marge used, you can take the measure of each piece (\frac{3}{8}) and multiply by the total number of pieces cut (16):

\frac{3}{8}*\frac{16}{1}=\frac{48}{8}=6inches

So, Marge used 6 inches of tape altogether.

Georgia [21]

<em><u>The intervals included in solution are:</u></em>

\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{x}-10\ge \frac{2}{24}\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:0

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

A boat tour guide expects his tour to travel at a rate of x mph on the first leg of the trip

On the return route, the boat travels against the current, decreasing the boat's rate by 10 mph

The group needs to travel an average of at least 24 mph

<em><u>Given inequality is:</u></em>

\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{x} - 10\geq \frac{2}{24}

<em><u>We have to solve the inequality</u></em>

\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{x} - 10\geq \frac{2}{24}\\\\\frac{2}{x}  - 10\geq \frac{2}{24}

\mathrm{Subtract\:}\frac{2}{24}\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\\frac{2}{x}-10-\frac{2}{24}\ge \frac{2}{24}-\frac{2}{24}\\\\Simplify\\\\\frac{2}{x}-10-\frac{2}{24}\ge \:0

\frac{2}{x}-\frac{10}{1}-\frac{2}{24} \geq 0\\\\\frac{ 2 \times 24}{x \times 24} -\frac{10 \times 24}{1 \times 24} - \frac{2 \times x }{24 \times x}\geq 0\\\\\frac{48}{24x}-\frac{240x}{24x}-\frac{2x}{24x}\geq 0\\\\Since\:the\:denominators\:are\:equal,\:combine\:the\:fractions\\\\\frac{48-240x-2x}{24x}\geq 0\\\\Add\:similar\:elements\\\\\frac{48-242x}{24x}\ge \:0

\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}24\\\\\frac{24\left(48-242x\right)}{24x}\ge \:0\cdot \:24\\\\Simplify\\\\\frac{48-242x}{x}\ge \:0\\\\Factor\ common\ terms\\\\\frac{-2\left(121x-24\right)}{x}\ge \:0\\\\\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}-1\mathrm{\:\left(reverse\:the\:inequality\right)}

When we multiply or divide both sides by negative number, then we must flip the inequality sign

\frac{\left(-2\left(121x-24\right)\right)\left(-1\right)}{x}\le \:0\cdot \left(-1\right)\\\\\frac{2\left(121x-24\right)}{x}\le \:0\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}2\\\\\frac{\frac{2\left(121x-24\right)}{x}}{2}\le \frac{0}{2}\\\\Simplify\\\\\frac{121x-24}{x}\le \:0

\mathrm{Find\:the\:signs\:of\:the\:factors\:of\:}\frac{121x-24}{x}\\

This is attached as figure below

From the attached table,

\mathrm{Identify\:the\:intervals\:that\:satisfy\:the\:required\:condition:}\:\le \:\:0\\\\0

<em><u>Therefore, solution set is given as</u></em>:

\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{x}-10\ge \frac{2}{24}\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:0

Which polynomial function could be represented by the graph below?
Svetllana [295]

Note that

1.

f(x)=x^3+x^2-6x=x(x^2+x-6)=x(x-2)(x+3)

The x-intercepts are at points x=-3, x=0, x=2. The graph should be increasing - decreasing - increasing.

2.

f(x)=x^3-x^2-6x=x(x^2-x-6)=x(x+2)(x-3)

The x-intercepts are at points x=-2, x=0, x=3. The graph should be increasing - decreasing - increasing.

3.

f(x)=-2x^3-2x^2+12x=-2x(x^2+x-6)=-2x(x-2)(x+3)

The x-intercepts are at points x=-3, x=0, x=2. The graph should be decreasing - increasing - decreasing.

4.

f(x)=-2x^3+x^2+12x=-2x(x^2-x-6)=-2x(x+2)(x-3)

The x-intercepts are at points x=-2, x=0, x=3. The graph should be decreasing - increasing - decreasing.

From the diagram you can see that x-intercepts are at points x=-3, x=0, x=2 and the graph is   decreasing-increasing-decreasing.

Answer: correct choice is 3.
