Answer:
W = 2 cm
L = 5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangle is a four sided shape with 4 perpendicular angles. It has two pairs of parallel sides which are equal in distance: width and length. Its area, the amount of space inside it, can be found using the formula A = l*w. If the area is 10 cm² and the length is "3 cm less than 4 times the width" or 4w - 3, you can substitute and solve for w.
A = l*w
10 = (4w - 3)(w)
10 = 4w² - 3w
Subtract 10 from both sides to make the equation equal to 0. Then solve the quadratic by quadratic formula.
4w² - 3w - 10 = 0
Substitute a = 4, b = -3 and c = -10.
There are two possible solutions which can be found.
3 + 13 / 8 = 16/ 8 = 2
3 - 13 / 8 = -10/8 = -5/4
Since w is a side length or distance, it must be positive so w = 2 cm.
If the width is 2 cm then the length is 4(2) - 3 = 8 - 3 = 5 cm.
Answer:
6y² - 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand. Follow FOIL method. FOIL =
First
Outside
Inside
Last.
First, multiply the first term of each parenthesis:
2y * 3y = 6y²
Next, multiply the outside terms from both parenthesis:
2y * 6 = 12y
Then, multiply the inside terms from both parenthesis:
-4 * 3y = -12y
Finally, multiply the last terms of each parenthesis:
-4 * 6 = -24
Combine like terms:
6y² + 12y - 12y - 24
6y² + (12y - 12y) - 24
6y² - 24
6y² - 24 is your answer.

Answer:
A, B and D
Step-by-step explanation:
A. The polynomial is a trinomial.
A trinomial refers to a polynomial with three terms. This option is correct.
B. The degree of the polynomial is 6.
Degree refers to the highest power in the polynomial. This option is correct.
C. The leading coefficient is 1
This is false. The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the variable bearing the degree of the polynomial. This is wrong.
D. Written in standard form, the polynomial is –2x6 + x5 + 3.
This is correct.
