Answer:
This (x - 5) represents the length of the rectangle.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the area of a rectangle of length L and width W is A = L * W.
Here, the width is x - 4 and the area is x^2 + x - 20. Dividing the width (x - 4) into the area results in an expression for the length:
x - 4 / x^2 + x - 20
Let's use synthetic division here. It's a little faster than long division.
If the divisor in long division is x - 4, we know immediately that the divisor in synthetic division is 4:
4 / 1 1 -20
4 20
--------------------
1 5 0
This synthetic division results in a remainder of 0. This tells us that 4 (or the corresponding (x - 4) is indeed a root of the polynomial x^2 + x - 20, and so *(x - 4) is a factor. From the coefficients 1 and 5 we can construct the other factor: (x - 5). This (x - 5) represents the length of the rectangle.
To find h(6), we must plug in 6 into the function.
h(x) = x^2 - 2x - 5
h(6) = 6^2 - 2(6) - 5
= 36 - 12 - 5
= 36 - 17 = 19
Answer:
? = 4.29
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
Let x be the question mark. You get the proportionality by using the dimensions of the little triangle to the dimensions of the large triangle.
Equation
14/(14+ 4) = 15/(x + 15) Combine like terms on the left
14/18 = 15/(x + 15) Cross multiply
14*(x + 15) = 18 * 15 Simplify the right
14(x + 15) = 270 Divide by 14
x + 15 = 270 / 14
x + 15 = 19.29 Subtract 15 from both sides
x = 19.29 - 15
x = 4.29
Do 10 to the sixth power first then multiply that by 7 you use PEMDAS
