The area of rectangle RSTU is 36x2+25x−25. The length of the rectangle RSTU is 4x+5. Which expression describes the width of the rectangle RSTU?

Given:

The area of the rectangle RSTU =

Length of the rectangle RSTU =

To find:

The width of the rectangle RSTU.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Splitting the middle term, we get

We know that, the area of a rectangle is

Area of rectangle is product of (4x+5) and (9x-5).

Since (4x+5) is the length of the rectangle, therefore, (9x-5) is the width of the rectangle RSTU.

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!

answer would be 8.64 or s = 11π/4 inches

step-by-step explanation:

s = r θ  

where s = arc length  

r = radius = 3 inches  

θ = central angle in radians = ( π /180)*165  

s = 3(π/180)*165  

= 8.64 inches
