Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

(2x+5)(x+3)  

Step-by-step explanation:

The polynomial 2x^3 + 9x^2 + 4x - 15 represents the volume in cubic feet of a rectangular holding tank at a fish hatchery

Use synthetic division to find the expressions representing the other sides of the tank

(2x^3 + 9x^2 + 4x - 15)/(x-1)

x-1=0 , add 1 on both sides

x=1, write all the coefficients and then divide by 1

In synthetic division, drop the first number

then multiply it with 1 and write it below the second number.

Add it and do the same

1           2      9       4         -15

            0      2       11         15                

           -------------------------------------

           2        11       15       0

Remainder is 0

Frame expression using the numbers 2   11 and 15

2x^2+11x+15

product is 2 times 15 = 30

sum is 11

6 times 5 is 30 , 6 plus 5 is 11

(2x^2+6x)+(5x+15)       , take out GCF from each group

2x(x+3)+5(x+3)    

(2x+5)(x+3)

7a-3=3-2a
I don't know how to solve this question

Answers

7a-3=3-2a
9a-3=3 (add 2a to both sides)
9a=6 (add 3 to both sides)
a=6/9 (divide by 9 to both sides)
get all variables (in this case, "a") on one side by adding "2a" to both. this cancels the "-2a". then, combine like terms. also move "-3" to the other side, by adding "3". finally, divide the "6" and "a" by "9" to get variable alone. therefore, "a = 2/3".
7a-3=3-2a
+2a     +2a
9a-3=3
   +3  +3
    9a=6
      a=2/3

The area of a rectangle is 38.25 square yards and its base is 9 yards. What is the height? Do not round your answer.h = ________ yd

Answers

Answer:

4.25 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = Base x Height

or

Height = Area of Rectangle ÷ Base

In this case, Area =38.25 sq yards and Base = 9 yards

Height = 38.25 ÷ 9 = 4.25 yards

hi! your answer is 4.25. (also hope this helps everyone who finds this in search for the answer)

phillip sells electronics and works on a commision basis. if his commossion is 4%, and he sells $15,000 worth of electronics, what are his earnings

Answers

Answer:

Phillip's commission for sales of $15,000 is $600.

Step-by-step explanation:

Phillip sells electronics and works on a commission basis.

His commission is 4% for x dollars worth of sales.

Hence, when his sales are $15000, his commission will be :

0.04*15000=600 dollars

So, Phillip's commission for sales of $15,000 is $600.

4% of $15,000 = 600
so his total would be $15,000
im not fully positive that i'm correct because i do not understand the question but 4% = 600 hope that helps

Divide 7/24 by 35/48 and reduce the quotient to the lowest fraction. A. 245/1152
B. 2/5
C. 4/10
D. 42/48

Answers

well first you have to flip one of the fractions, so for example 7/24 x 48/35 which should give you an answer of 336/840. If you simplify this down you should get 4/10. Another way of double-checking or simplifying is by dividing 336 by 840 (which should give you 0.4) and dividing 4 by 10 (which should also give you 0.4). Hope this helps!
