A rectangular garden has an area given by the expression 4n2−4n−244n^2 - 4n - 24. Which of the following represents the completely factored form of this area expression?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 4(n−3)(n+2)4(n - 3)(n + 2)

Cevap

The completely factored form is 4(n−3)(n+2)4(n - 3)(n + 2).
To factor the expression completely, first remove the greatest common factor of 4 from all terms, which gives 4(n2−n−6)4(n^2 - n - 6). Then, factor the trinomial inside the parentheses. We need two numbers that multiply to -6 and add to -1, which are -3 and 2. This gives the completely factored form 4(n−3)(n+2)4(n - 3)(n + 2).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify and factor out the greatest common factor (GCF) from all terms in the polynomial 4n2−4n−244n^2 - 4n - 24.
4(n2−n−6)4(n^2 - n - 6)
Factoring out the GCF simplifies the polynomial and is the required first step for complete factorization.
2
Factor the remaining quadratic trinomial n2−n−6n^2 - n - 6 by finding two numbers that multiply to -6 and add to -1.
The numbers are -3 and 2, yielding (n−3)(n+2)(n - 3)(n + 2).
This breaks down the trinomial into its constituent binomial factors.
3
Combine the GCF and the binomial factors to write the final expression.
4(n−3)(n+2)4(n - 3)(n + 2)
This represents the full, completely factored form of the original area expression.

A delivery truck travels 4040 miles during the first 11 hour of its route. It then travels another 7575 miles in 11 hour and 3030 minutes. What is the truck's overall average speed for the entire trip?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 46 mph

Cevap

46 mph
To find the overall average speed, divide the total distance by the total time. The total distance is 40+75=11540 + 75 = 115 miles. The total time is 11 hour plus 11 hour and 3030 minutes. Since 3030 minutes is 0.50.5 hours, the total time is 1+1.5=2.51 + 1.5 = 2.5 hours. Dividing 115115 miles by 2.52.5 hours gives an average speed of 4646 mph.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the total distance traveled.
Total distance = 40+75=11540 + 75 = 115 miles.
Average speed requires knowing the total distance of the trip.
2
Calculate the total time in consistent units (hours).
Total time = 11 hour + 1.51.5 hours = 2.52.5 hours.
Average speed requires the total time. The 3030 minutes must be converted to 0.50.5 hours to match the unit.
3
Divide the total distance by the total time to find the average speed.
115÷2.5=46115 \div 2.5 = 46 mph.
The standard formula for average speed is total distance divided by total time.

A machinist earns a regular hourly rate of $26.00\$26.00 for a standard 4040-hour workweek. Any hours worked over 4040 in a single week are paid at a time-and-a-half overtime rate. Additionally, working the night shift adds a flat $3.50\$3.50 per hour differential to their base rate before the overtime multiplier is applied. If the machinist worked 4646 hours last week, and all of those hours were on the night shift, what was their total gross pay in dollars?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 1445.5

Cevap

1445.50
The total gross pay is calculated by first establishing the adjusted base rate for the night shift, which is the regular rate plus the differential: $26.00+$3.50=$29.50\$26.00 + \$3.50 = \$29.50. The machinist worked 4040 regular hours at this rate, earning 40×$29.50=$1,180.0040 \times \$29.50 = \$1,180.00. The 66 remaining hours are overtime, paid at 1.51.5 times the adjusted rate: $29.50×1.5=$44.25\$29.50 \times 1.5 = \$44.25. Multiplying this by the 66 overtime hours gives 6×$44.25=$265.506 \times \$44.25 = \$265.50. Adding the regular pay and overtime pay results in a total gross pay of $1,180.00+$265.50=$1,445.50\$1,180.00 + \$265.50 = \$1,445.50.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the adjusted base hourly rate.
$26.00+$3.50=$29.50\$26.00 + \$3.50 = \$29.50 per hour
The night shift differential is added to the standard base rate before any other multipliers are applied.
2
Calculate the regular pay for the first 40 hours.
40×$29.50=$1,180.0040 \times \$29.50 = \$1,180.00
The standard workweek is 40 hours, which is paid at the regular adjusted rate.
3
Calculate the overtime hourly rate.
$29.50×1.5=$44.25\$29.50 \times 1.5 = \$44.25 per hour
Overtime is paid at time-and-a-half (1.5 times the regular rate), applying to the adjusted base rate.
4
Calculate the pay for the overtime hours.
6×$44.25=$265.506 \times \$44.25 = \$265.50
The machinist worked 46 hours total, so 6 of those hours are considered overtime.
5
Calculate the total gross pay.
$1,180.00+$265.50=$1,445.50\$1,180.00 + \$265.50 = \$1,445.50

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 1,8001,800

Cevap

The correct answer is 1,8001,800.
The correct transfer rate is found by determining how much fuel is pumped in one minute, which is 450÷15=30450 \div 15 = 30 gallons per minute. Since there are 6060 minutes in an hour, multiply this rate by 6060 to get 1,8001,800 gallons per hour.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Find the unit rate in gallons per minute.
450÷15=30450 \div 15 = 30 gallons per minute.
This establishes the base rate of fuel transfer before scaling up to an hourly rate.
2
Convert the per-minute rate to a per-hour rate.
30×60=1,80030 \times 60 = 1,800 gallons per hour.
There are 60 minutes in an hour, so the minute rate must be multiplied by 60 to find the hourly rate.

Cevap: -39

Cevap

-39
To find the coefficient of the a2ba^2b term, first expand the squared binomial (3a−4b)2(3a - 4b)^2 to get the trinomial 9a2−24ab+16b29a^2 - 24ab + 16b^2. Next, multiply this trinomial by (2a+b)(2a + b). The specific terms that result in a2ba^2b are the product of 9a29a^2 and bb (which yields 9a2b9a^2b) and the product of −24ab-24ab and 2a2a (which yields −48a2b-48a^2b). Combining these like terms gives 9a2b−48a2b=−39a2b9a^2b - 48a^2b = -39a^2b. Therefore, the numerical coefficient is -39.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Expand the squared binomial (3a−4b)2(3a - 4b)^2.
9a2−24ab+16b29a^2 - 24ab + 16b^2
Order of operations requires resolving the exponent before multiplying by the binomial (2a+b)(2a + b).
2
Set up the multiplication of the resulting trinomial and the binomial.
(9a2−24ab+16b2)(2a+b)(9a^2 - 24ab + 16b^2)(2a + b)
This prepares the expression for distributing every term in the trinomial to every term in the binomial.
3
Identify and calculate only the partial products that result in an a2ba^2b term.
(9a2)(b)=9a2b(9a^2)(b) = 9a^2b and (−24ab)(2a)=−48a2b(-24ab)(2a) = -48a^2b
This is a more efficient method than fully expanding the entire polynomial if only a specific coefficient is needed.
4
Combine the identified like terms.
9a2b−48a2b=−39a2b9a^2b - 48a^2b = -39a^2b
Combining these terms gives the final, simplified coefficient for the a2ba^2b term.

Two parallel lines, L1L_1 and L2L_2, are intersected by three distinct transversals. The first transversal creates a pair of alternate interior angles that measure (4x−3y)∘(4x - 3y)^\circ and (2x+y)∘(2x + y)^\circ. The second transversal creates a pair of consecutive (same-side) interior angles that measure (3x+y)∘(3x + y)^\circ and (5y+36)∘(5y + 36)^\circ. The third transversal creates a pair of corresponding angles. One of these corresponding angles measures (x+y+z)∘(x + y + z)^\circ, and the angle forming a linear pair with it measures 108∘108^\circ. What is the value of zz?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 36

Cevap

36
By applying geometric theorems for transversals (alternate interior angles are equal, same-side interior angles sum to 180), a system of equations reveals x = 24 and y = 12. Using the linear pair property, the final angle expression (x + y + z) equals 72, which isolates z to exactly 36.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Set up an equation using the alternate interior angles.
4x−3y=2x+y⇒2x=4y⇒x=2y4x - 3y = 2x + y \Rightarrow 2x = 4y \Rightarrow x = 2y
Alternate interior angles formed by a transversal intersecting parallel lines are equal.
2
Set up an equation using the consecutive (same-side) interior angles.
(3x+y)+(5y+36)=180⇒3x+6y+36=180⇒3x+6y=144(3x + y) + (5y + 36) = 180 \Rightarrow 3x + 6y + 36 = 180 \Rightarrow 3x + 6y = 144
Consecutive interior angles formed by a transversal intersecting parallel lines are supplementary (sum to 180 degrees).
3
Solve the system of equations by substituting x=2yx = 2y into the second equation.
3(2y)+6y=144⇒6y+6y=144⇒12y=144⇒y=123(2y) + 6y = 144 \Rightarrow 6y + 6y = 144 \Rightarrow 12y = 144 \Rightarrow y = 12. Since x=2yx = 2y, x=24x = 24.
Substitution efficiently solves a two-variable linear system to find the individual angle components.
4
Use the linear pair to determine the measure of the corresponding angle, then solve for zz.
(x+y+z)=180−108=72(x + y + z) = 180 - 108 = 72. Substituting known values: 24+12+z=72⇒36+z=72⇒z=3624 + 12 + z = 72 \Rightarrow 36 + z = 72 \Rightarrow z = 36.
Angles forming a linear pair are supplementary. Finding the target angle allows substitution of xx and yy to isolate zz.

A convex hexagon has five interior angles that measure 120∘120^\circ, 135∘135^\circ, 115∘115^\circ, 140∘140^\circ, and 110∘110^\circ. If the measure of the sixth interior angle is represented by the algebraic expression (4x+16)∘(4x + 16)^\circ, what is the value of xx?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 2121

Cevap

The correct answer is 2121.
The sum of the interior angles of a hexagon (66 sides) is (6−2)×180∘=720∘(6 - 2) \times 180^\circ = 720^\circ. The five given angles add up to 620∘620^\circ. This means the sixth angle must be 720∘−620∘=100∘720^\circ - 620^\circ = 100^\circ. Setting the algebraic expression 4x+164x + 16 equal to 100100 and solving for xx by subtracting 1616 and dividing by 44 gives x=21x = 21.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the sum of the interior angles of a convex hexagon.
The sum is (6−2)×180∘=720∘(6 - 2) \times 180^\circ = 720^\circ.
The formula for the sum of interior angles is (n−2)×180∘(n - 2) \times 180^\circ, where nn is the number of sides. A hexagon has 66 sides.
2
Find the sum of the five given angles.
120∘+135∘+115∘+140∘+110∘=620∘120^\circ + 135^\circ + 115^\circ + 140^\circ + 110^\circ = 620^\circ.
Adding the known angles allows us to find the combined measure of the known portion of the polygon.
3
Calculate the measure of the sixth angle.
720∘−620∘=100∘720^\circ - 620^\circ = 100^\circ.
Subtracting the sum of the five known angles from the total sum gives the measure of the missing angle.
4
Set up and solve the equation for xx.
4x+16=100  ⟹  4x=84  ⟹  x=214x + 16 = 100 \implies 4x = 84 \implies x = 21.
The sixth angle is represented by the expression (4x+16)∘(4x + 16)^\circ, so setting it equal to 100100 allows us to isolate and solve for xx.

Cevap

$3,810\$3,810
To find the total gross income, calculate the separate commissions and add them to the base salary. The personal commission is 3%3\% of $14,000\$14,000 (which is $420\$420) and the staff commission is 0.5%0.5\% of $38,000\$38,000 (which is $190\$190). Adding these variable amounts to the fixed $3,200\$3,200 base salary yields a total of $3,810\$3,810.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the commission earned from personal sales.
$14,000×0.03=$420\$14,000 \times 0.03 = \$420
The manager earns a 3% commission on her $14,000 of personal sales.
2
Calculate the override commission earned from staff sales.
$38,000×0.005=$190\$38,000 \times 0.005 = \$190
The manager earns a 0.5% commission on the $38,000 sold by her staff. Note that 0.5% is 0.005 in decimal form.
3
Add the base salary and both commission amounts to find the total gross income.
$3,200+$420+$190=$3,810\$3,200 + \$420 + \$190 = \$3,810
Gross income is the sum of all fixed pay and variable earnings before taxes.

A communications platoon is distributing a shipment of 8,4008,400 replacement radio batteries among three forward operating bases (FOB Alpha, FOB Bravo, and FOB Charlie) in a ratio of 4:5:64:5:6, respectively. Based on this ratio, how many batteries will FOB Charlie receive?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 3360

Cevap

FOB Charlie will receive 3,360 batteries.
The total ratio parts sum to 15 (4 + 5 + 6). Dividing the total 8,400 batteries by 15 yields 560 batteries per part. FOB Charlie corresponds to the '6' in the ratio, so multiplying 560 by 6 gives the correct allocation of 3,360 batteries.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the total number of ratio parts.
4+5+6=154 + 5 + 6 = 15 parts
To divide a total quantity in a specific ratio, you first need to determine the total number of equal parts that make up the whole.
2
Determine the amount of batteries in a single part.
8,400÷15=5608,400 \div 15 = 560 batteries per part
Dividing the total number of batteries by the total number of parts establishes the baseline value of one unit in the ratio.
3
Calculate FOB Charlie's share.
560×6=3,360560 \times 6 = 3,360 batteries
Since FOB Charlie receives 6 parts of the ratio, multiplying the value of a single part by 6 gives their final allocation.

Anahtar Kavram

To divide a quantity into a given ratio, find the total number of parts by summing the ratio values, divide the total quantity by this sum to find the value of one part, and then multiply by the desired part's ratio value.

Cevap

22
To calculate the average speed for the entire journey, determine the total distance traveled (80+30=11080 + 30 = 110 miles) and the total time taken (2+3=52 + 3 = 5 hours). Dividing the total distance by the total time (110÷5110 \div 5) gives an average speed of 2222 miles per hour.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the total distance traveled.
80 + 30 = 110 miles
Average speed requires the total distance for all segments of the trip combined.
2
Calculate the total time taken.
2 + 3 = 5 hours
Average speed requires the total time duration for all segments.
3
Divide the total distance by the total time.
110 / 5 = 22
The formula for overall average speed is Total Distance divided by Total Time.

Anahtar Kavram

Average speed is found by dividing the total distance by the total time, not by averaging the individual speeds of different segments.

A tactical communications array transmits 1,8001,800 megabytes of encrypted data in 4.54.5 minutes. At this constant rate, how many megabytes of data does the array transmit in 1818 seconds?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 120

Cevap

120
The correct answer is derived by first establishing the transmission rate of 400400 megabytes per minute (1,800÷4.51,800 \div 4.5). Since the required timeframe is given in seconds, it must be converted to minutes (18÷60=0.318 \div 60 = 0.3 minutes). Multiplying the rate by the converted time gives 120120 megabytes.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the unit transmission rate in megabytes per minute.
1,800÷4.5=4001,800 \div 4.5 = 400 megabytes per minute
Finding the rate per minute allows for scaling the transmission amount to any other duration.
2
Convert the target time from seconds to minutes.
18÷60=0.318 \div 60 = 0.3 minutes
The established unit rate is in minutes, so the target time must match this temporal unit before multiplying.
3
Multiply the unit rate by the converted target time.
400×0.3=120400 \times 0.3 = 120 megabytes
Multiplying the rate (megabytes per minute) by the time (minutes) yields the total amount of data transmitted.

A square has four sides of equal length. Given a perimeter of 3636 meters, each side measures 36÷4=936 \div 4 = 9 meters. The area of a square is its side length squared, which is 92=819^2 = 81 square meters.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Find the length of one side of the square.
36÷4=936 \div 4 = 9 meters.
The perimeter of a square is the sum of its four equal sides, so dividing the total perimeter by 4 gives the length of a single side.
2
Calculate the area of the square.
9×9=819 \times 9 = 81 square meters.
The area of a square is calculated by squaring the length of one of its sides (A=s2A = s^2).
