The width is to be 14 feet less than 3 times the height. Find the width and the height if the carpenter expects
to use 28 feet of lumber to make it.
Width:
feet
Height:
feet
Question Help: Video
Answer:
w= 3 feet
h= 5 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
H=height; W=width=2H-7ft
W=2H-7ft
2H+4W=22ft Substitute for W
2H+4(2H-7ft)=22ft
2H+8H-28ft=22ft Add 28 ft to each side.
10H=50ft
H=5 ft ANSWER 1: The bookshelf is 5 feet high.
W=2H-7ft=2(5ft)-7ft=10ft-7ft=3ft
ANSWER 2: the bookshelf is 3 feet wide.
CHECK:
2H+4W=22ft
2(5ft)+4(3ft)=22ft
10ft+12ft=22ft
22ft=22ft

to 0.75(8+e)=2-1.25e
The value of e from the given equation is -1.78
Linear functionsLinear functions are function that has a leading degree of 1
Given the expression below;
0.75(8+e)=2-1.25e
Expand to have;
0.75(8) + 0.75e = 2-1.25e
6 + 0.75e = 2 - 1.5e
6-2 = -1.5e - 0.75e

Scott rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of $18.99, and there was an additional charge of 92 cents for each mile driven. Scott had to pay $150.55 when he returned the truck. For how many miles did he drive the truck?
I need to find how many miles
Answer:
143 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = number of miles
Let y = total cost
150.55 = .92x + 18.99 Multiply all the way through by 100 to clear the decimal
15055 = 92x + 1899 Subtract 1899 from both sides
13156 = 92x Divide both sides by 92
143 = x
Betsy, a recent retiree, requires $6,000 per year in extra income. She has $60,000 to invest and can invest in B-rated bonds paying 13% per year or in a certificate of deposit (CD) paying 5% per year. How much money should be invested in each to realize exactly $6,000 in interest per year?
$37,500 should be invested in B-rated bonds and $22,500 should be invested in a certificate of deposit in order to realize exactly $6,000 in interest per year.
The total amount to be invested is $60,000. We are given two options for investing the money.The money can be invested either in B-rated bonds, which pays 13% interest per year, or in a certificate of deposit (CD), which pays 5% interest per year.Let the amount to be invested in B-rated bonds be 'x'. The amount to be invested in a certificate of deposit equals 60,000-x. The requirement is to get an exact amount of interest that equals $6000. The total interest per year = 13% of 'x' + 5% of (60,000-x).6,000 = 13x/100 + 5(60,000-x)/100.6,00,000 = 13x + 5(60,000-x)6,00,000 = 13x + 300,000-5x6,00,000 = 8x + 300,0008x = 300,000x = 300,000/8x = 37,500Now calculate the value of 60,000-x.60,000-x = 60,000-37,50060,000-x = 22,500Thus, the amount to be invested in B-rated bonds is $37,500 and the amount to be invested in a certificate of deposit is $22,500.To learn more about interest, visit :

A researcher who is interested in the behavior of chimps believes that temperature is related to aggression in this species of animal. She goes out to her local zoo during a particular weekend and adjusts the temperature of their climate-controlled habitat to 50-degrees, 70-degrees and 90-degrees Fahrenheit over the course of three days, noting the number of aggressive acts she observes at each temperature level.
A) What is the independent variable?
B) What is the dependent variable?
C) Is the dependent variable discrete or continuous?
D) What scale of measurement (nominal, ordinal, interval or ratio) is used to measure the dependent variable? What research method is being used (experimental or observational), and why?
The experimental research conducted by the scientist takes into account the following factors:
a)The change in temperature is the independent variable.
b) The effect of temperature on the chimp's act of aggression is the dependent variable.
c)The dependent variable is continuous.
d)The scale of measurement used to measure the dependent variable is interval.
e) The research method being used here is experimental.
In the above experiment the researcher wants to see the change in the aggression of the chimp when there is a change in temperature in the zoo.
In this experiment there are two variables that are being used, independent and dependent.The independent variable is the change in temperature as it is regulated by the researcher.The dependent variable is the change in the aggressive nature of the chimps, as the change in nature is directly affected by the change in temperature. The dependent variable(mood of the chimp) is continuous, as the value cannot be defined separately.Since the data is not discreet but continuous , the scale of measurement used is interval.The research method being used is experimental , because the researcher is controlling the variable temperature to see the effect of the temperature change on the chimps. So the researcher is directly experimenting on the chimps by changing an external factor. So the experiment is not observational.To learn more about research experiment and variables:

find the quotient 17 ÷ 6 8/10
The ratio of EQUATION the outcome is (17/6)/(8/10) = 3.5416667.
What in mathematics is a quotient?The quotient is the result of dividing two numbers by each other. As in the case of 8 4 = 2, when the division produced the number 2, the outcome is the quotient. The dividend is 8 and the divisor is 4.
based on the available facts;

In 2019, Company A purchased a commercial building with 8 retail units for $4,200,000. In 2021, Company A decided to sell this building for $4,500,000. Interpret the change as a percentage. Round to the nearest hundredth.
The change as a percentage is 6.7 %
How to calculate the percentage change ?The price of the building in the year 2021 is $4,200,00
The price of the building in 2021 is $4,500,000
Therefore the percentage change can be calculated as follows
= 4,500,000 - 4,200,000/4,500,000 × 100
= 300,000/4,500,000 × 100
= 0.066 × 100
= 6.7 %
Hence the percentage change is 6.7%

The value of a in the equation in the simplest form will be 17 / 6.
We are given an equation:
x³ / x^(1/6) = x^(a)
We need to evaluate the left hand side to find the value of a in the equation in simplest form.
We know that:
x^ (a) / x^ (b) = x^ ( a - b)
Using this, we get that:
x^ (3 - 1/6) = x^ (a)
x^ (17/6) = x^ (a)
By comparing the bases, we get the value of a as:
a = 17 / 6.
Therefore, the value of a in the equation in the simplest form will be 17 / 6.
