The length of a rectangular room is 2 feet greater than its width. Which of the following equations represents the area (A) of the room?

To find the greatest number from the given set, we first convert the decimal numbers into fractions.

12.35 becomes 1235/100

11.46 becomes 1146/10

Then, the LCM for the denominators of the given fractions of 2, 100, 3 and 10 is 300. Now we multiply each fraction with 300, which we will use to compare the give set.

25/2*300=3750

1235/100*300=3705

40/3*300=4000

1146/10*300=3438

From the calculated values, 4000 is the greatest value. Then, 40/3is the greatest value.

We are tasked to find the unknown values of x in the given equation.

First, we add 8 to both sides of the equation.

Next, we apply the absolute rule:

If   , a>0, then u=a or u=-a

From our resulting equation, a=14, which is greater 0. Then, the first condition (u=a) becomes

Solving for x

The second condition (u= -a) becomes

Solving for x

Thus, the value of x is 4 or -3

The slope represents the ratio of rise to run. Let p be the minimum length of the ramp, we can set a ratio equation as follows. Then,

The minimum length of the ramp needed is 18 feet to access to a door that is 1.5 feet above the sidewalk.

Choice A: 2 packs of Orange and 2 packs of Cream Soda

• Total drinks: 48 + 24 = 72 drinks
• Total cost: (2 * $15) + (2 * $5) = $30 + $10 = $40
• This choice not only meets the requirement of at least 60 drinks but also offers the best value in terms of cost per drink, making it the most cost-effective option.

Choice B: 3 packs of Root Beer

• Total drinks: 3 * 24 = 72 drinks
• Total cost: 3 * $14 = $42
• While this choice meets the requirement of at least 60 drinks, it's not the most cost-effective, as it costs $42for 72 drinks.

Choice C: 1 pack of Orange, 2 packs of Root Beer, and 1 pack of Cream Soda

• Total drinks: 24 + 48 + 12 = 84 drinks
• Total cost: $9 + (2 * $14) + $5 = $9 + $28 + $5 = $42
• This choice provides more than 60 drinks, but it's not the most cost-effective due to its higher cost of $42, same as choice B.

Choice D: 4 packs of Cream Soda

• Total drinks: 4 * 12 = 48 drinks
• Total cost: 4 * $5 = $20
• While this choice is the most cost effective, it falls short of providing the desired number of drinks.

The median of the data set is the number that falls in the middle position after arranging the numbers in the data set in the ascending order.

-6, -4, 1, 8, 12

There are 5 numbers in the given data set, therefore the median falls in the third position from either side. Inspecting the data set, 1 fall in the third position, which is the median for the given data set.

we need to find the circumference of the circle from the given area.

The first step is to find the radius of the circle using the given area. Let r be the radius of the circle, then:

Substituting the value of area in the above equation becomes

Dividing both sides by pi and taking square root on both sides yields

Now, we know the radius of circle to be  9 in, the circumference of the circle becomes,

  in.

This problem asks us to compare the number of dimes to nickels.

If we let p be number of pennies in the bottle. Then,

Number of quarters in the bottle = 4p

Number of nickels in the bottle = 2p

Number of dimes in the bottle =7(2p)=14p

To find the number of dimes the child has than nickels, we use the ratio:

\(\frac{Dimes}{nickels} =\frac {14p}{2p}\ =\ 7\)

Thus, there are 7times as many dimes as nickels in the box.

The scientist found that as water temperature increases, the fish population decreases. This means that the two variables move in opposite directions—when one increases, the other decreases.

This type of relationship is called a negative correlation.

To find the area of the largest circle that can fit entirely inside a rectangle measuring 8 cm by 10 cm, follow these steps:

Step 1: Determine the largest possible circle

• The largest circle that can fit inside the rectangle will have a diameter equal to the smaller side of the rectangle.
• The rectangle has dimensions 8 cm × 10 cm, so the largest possible diameter is 8 cm (since the circle must fit within the rectangle).

Step 2: Find the radius

The radius r is half of the diameter:

r=8/2=4cm

Step 3: Calculate the area of the circle

The area of a circle is given by the formula:

A=πr2 =16πcm2

In this case, we use a calculator to estimate the positive square root of 42.

Then, multiplying the square root above with 6 becomes

Then, the approximate value of 6 time the positive square root of 42 is 38.9.
