The length of a rectangular frame is represented by the expression 2x+4 and the width of the rectangular frame is represented by the expression 2x+10. write an equation to solve for the width of a rectangular frame that has a total area of 120 square inches
2x^2+20x-80=0
4x^2+28x+40=0
4x^2+28x-80=0
x^2+8x+20=0

4x^2 + 28x - 80=0

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x+4)(2x+10) = 120

1. Use FOIL (Distribute):

4x^2 + 20x +8x + 40 = 120

2. Group like terms:

4x^2 + 28x+ 40 = 120

3. Subtract 120 from both sides:

4x^2 + 28x - 80 = 0

Option 3 -

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

The length of a rectangular frame is represented by the expression L=2x+4.

The width of the rectangular frame is represented by the expression B=2x+10.

The total area of a rectangular frame is A=120 square inches.

To find : Write an equation to solve for the width of a rectangular frame ?

Solution :

The area of the rectangle is given by,

Substitute the values,

The required equation is

Therefore, option 3 is correct.

d. 24+-0.114

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4
