A rectangle has a length of 12 yards less than 3 times its width. If the area of the rectangle is 135 square yards, find the length of the rectangle.
Answer:
The length is 15 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Represent the width with W and length with L: So
[tex]Area = 135yd^2[/tex]
[tex]L=3W - 12[/tex]
Required
Determine the length of the rectangle:
Area is calculated as thus:
[tex]Area = L * W[/tex]
Substitute 3W - 12 for L and 135 for Area
[tex]135= (3W - 12) * W[/tex]
[tex]135= 3W^2 - 12W[/tex]
Reorder:
[tex]3W^2 - 12W - 135= 0[/tex]
Divide through by 3
[tex]W^2 - 4W - 45 = 0[/tex]
Expand:
[tex]W^2 - 9W + 5W - 45 = 0[/tex]
[tex]W(W - 9) + 5(W - 9) = 0[/tex]
[tex](W + 5)(W-9) = 0[/tex]
[tex]W + 5 = 0[/tex] or [tex]W - 9 = 0[/tex]
[tex]W = -5[/tex] or [tex]W = 9[/tex]
But width can't be negative
So:
[tex]W = 9[/tex]
Recall that: [tex]L=3W - 12[/tex]
[tex]L = 3 * 9 - 12[/tex]
[tex]L = 15[/tex]
Hence, the length 15 yards

A machine at a food-distribution factory fills boxes of rice. The distribution of the weights of filled boxes of rice has an
approximately Normal distribution, with a mean of 28.2 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.4 ounces. What
percentage of filled boxes of rice have a weight between 28 and 29 ounces?
Find the z-table here.
O 33.1%
O 36.7%
O 63.3%
66.9%
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
I got it right
Using the normal distribution, it is found that 66.9% of filled boxes of rice have a weight between 28 and 29 ounces.
Normal Probability DistributionThe z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.In this problem, the mean and the standard deviation are given, respectively, by: [tex]\mu = 28.2, \sigma = 0.4[/tex].
The proportion of filled boxes of rice have a weight between 28 and 29 ounces is the p-value of Z when X = 29 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 28, hence:
X = 29:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{29 - 28.2}{0.4}[/tex]
Z = 2
Z = 2 has a p-value of 0.977.
X = 28:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{28 - 28.2}{0.4}[/tex]
Z = -0.5
Z = -0.5 has a p-value of 0.308.
0.977 - 0.308 = 0.669 = 66.9%.

A rancher has a square cow pen with side length x. He decides to change the shape
of the pen while still using the same amount of fencing materials. The equation
(x + 10)(x - 10) = 300 represents the relationship of the new side lengths (in feet)
of the pen and its area (in square feet).
a. If 300 represents the area of the new cow pen, what do the expressions
(x + 10) and (x - 10) each represent?
b. Find x, the original side length (in feet) of the square pen. Show your reasoning.
Answer:
a) x+ 10 is the length of the ranch
x - 10 is the width of the ranch
b) 20 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the square ranch = L²
L is the side length of the ranch
If the equation
(x + 10)(x - 10) = 300 represents the relationship of the new side lengths (in feet)
Then we can find x where;
x + 10 is the new length of the ranch
x - 10 is the new width of the ranch
Open the parenthesis
equation
(x + 10)(x - 10) = 300
x²²-10x + 10x - 100 = 300
x² - 100 = 300
x² = 300+100
x² = 400
x = √400
x = 20
Hence the original length of the square pen is 20 feet
The values (x + 10) and (x - 10) represents the length and width of the new pen.
The value of x, the original length of the pen is 20 cm
How to find the side of a square?The pen is a square. It was later reconstructed to form the following expression.
(x + 10)(x - 10) = 300
where
area = 300 feet squaredTherefore,
(x + 10)(x - 10) = 300
x² - 10x + 10x - 100 = 300
x² - 100 = 300
x² = 300 + 100
x² = 400
x = √400
x = 20 ft
Therefore, the original side length of the square pen is 20 ft.

A 2.5-meter piece of framing lumber has been used to cut a piece 1.65 meters long. How much of the original piece of lumber remains, in meters?
Answer:
0.85 of the original piece of lumber remains.
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, this lumber piece of lumber started as 2.5 meters long. Then, a 1.65 meter piece was cut off of it. All we need to do is subtract.
2.5 - 1.65 =
2.50 - 1.65 = 0.85.
Therefore, 0.85 of the original piece of lumber remains.

Pictrure Below:
The concentration of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT - an infamous pesticide) in Lake Michigan has been declining exponentially over many years. In 1971, the DDT concentration was 13.00 ppm (parts per million). In 1984, the DDT concentration was 2.22 ppm.
Using these data points, determine the exponential decay function to model the DDT concentration decline in terms of years, tt, where t=0t=0 represents the year 1971.
A) Write your function as y = Ce^{rt}y=Ce^rt. Round your value of rr to four decimal places.
B) Another way to write the function down is known as the half-life formula, written as y = C(0.5)^{t/H}y=C(0.5)^t/H, where HH is the time required for the concentration to get cut in half. Using the initial two data points, find the value of HH, rounded to 2 decimal places. Show all Algebraic work.
C) The goal was to reduce the DDT concentration to 0.98 ppm by 1995. Was this possible according to your model?
Answer: A) [tex]y=13e^{-0.1359t}[/tex]
B) H = 5.10
C) Yes
Step-by-step explanation: Exponential Decay function is a model that describes the reducing of an amount by a constant rate over time. Generally, it is written in the form: [tex]y(t)=Ce^{rt}[/tex]
A) C is initial quantity, in this case, the initial concentration of DDT. To determine r, using the data given:
[tex]y(t)=Ce^{rt}[/tex]
[tex]2.22=13e^{13r}[/tex]
[tex]e^{13r}=0.1708[/tex]
Using a natural logarithm property called power rule:
[tex]13r=ln(0.1708)[/tex]
[tex]r=\frac{ln(0.1708)}{13}[/tex]
[tex]r=-0.1359[/tex]
The decay function for concentration of DDT through the years is [tex]y(t)=13e^{-0.1359t}[/tex]
B) The value of H is calculated by [tex]y=C(0.5)^{\frac{t}{H} }[/tex]
[tex]2.22=13(0.5)^{\frac{13}{H} }[/tex]
[tex](0.5)^{\frac{13}{H} }=0.1708[/tex]
Again, using power rule for logarithm:
[tex]\frac{13}{H} log(0.5)=log(0.1708)[/tex]
[tex]\frac{13}{H} =\frac{log(0.1708)}{log(0.5)}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{13}{H} =2.55[/tex]
H = 5.10
Constant H in the half-life formula is H=5.10
C) Using model [tex]y(t)=13e^{-0.1359t}[/tex] to determine concentration of DDT in 1995:
[tex]y(24)=13e^{-0.1359.24}[/tex]
y(24) = 0.5
By 1995, the concentration of DDT is 0.5 ppm, so using this model is possible to reduce such amount and more of DDT.

The rectangle shown as a perimeter of 70 cm and the given area. It’s length is 8 more than twice it’s width. Write and solve a system of equations to find the dimensions of the rectangle.
The length of the rectangle is ___cm and the width of the rectangle is ___cm.
width of the rectangle = b = x
length of the rectangle = l = 8 + 2x
Perimeter of the rectangle = 70cm
Also, perimeter of the rectangle = 2(l + b)
70 = 2[x + (8 + 2x)]
70 = 2(x + 8 + 2x)
70 = 2(3x + 8)
70 = 6x + 16
70 - 16 = 6x
54 = 6x
54/6 = x
9 = x
Therefore, b = x
b = 9cm
l = 8 + 2x
I = 8 + 2×9
I = 8 + 18
I = 26cm

Please explain? I'd like to understand how you did it so that I can do it myself the next time, thanks a mil :)
Answer:
2( w + 3 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Well first off, since theres no common term to factor out, I had to split 6 in half
so 2 w + 6 becomes 2w + 2 x 3.
I then factored out 2 because it's a common term,
which then leaves: 2( w + 3 )
basically, you have to find a common term to factor out, if you don't see one, you have to do something to a number so there's common terms.

What is a linear equation?It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.
If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.
It is given that:
The line that passes through points (2, -3) and (2, 13)
The slope 'm' of any straight line is given by:
[tex]\rm m =\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Plug the values to find the slope of the line:
m = (13 + 3)/(2-2) = 16/0 = not defined
Thus, the slope of the line that passes through points (2, -3) and (2, 13) is not defined.
