Cut each of the 8 pieces of paper into squares measuring 8 inches by 8 inches.

2. Using a pencil and ruler, mark each side off in 1/2 inch increments so that you have created a piece of graph paper that has 16 squares by 16 squares. Repeat this procedure for all 8 pieces of paper.

3. Take one sheet of graph paper and cut out one square out of each of the 4 corners. Fold up the 4 sides to create a box (without a lid) that has 14 squares across the bottom and has a height of 1 square up. You may want to tape the sides in place. This is your first of 8 boxes.

4. Repeat step #3 cutting 1 inch squares from each of the 4 corners and folding up the sides. Continue with the remaining 6 pieces of paper increasing the size of the squares that you will cut out by 1/2 inch. Can the last piece of paper have 4 inch squares cut from each corner? Why or why not?

1) t^3<9t^2

2)The side of a large tent is in the shape of an isosceles triangle whose area is 54 ft^2 and whose base is 6 feet shorter than twice its height. Find the height and the base of the tent.

3) A decorator plans to place a rug in a room 9 m by 12 m in such a way that a uniform strip of flooring around the rug will remain uncovered. If the rug is to cover half of the floor space, what should the dimensions of the rug be?


Thank you for your help.

1. x3 - 2x2 + 5x - 6 divided by x - 3


2. -2x4 - 6x2 + 3x + 1 divided by x + 1

3. x5 + 2x4 - 3x + 3 divided by x - 1

4. Find a polynomial of degree three that when divided by x - 2 has a remainder of 3. You will really have to think on this one. Hint: Work backwards!

1. 4^ (√(X+1)) = 3 ^(3X+2)

2. (log x(<--base) 10) (log 48-log 3)

3. 4 ^(-2log 4 (<-- base)3)

4. a ^(4log a(<--base) x)

5. log (1-x^3)+ log (1+x +x^2) - log (1-x)

6. solve for A
1+ log (AB)= log C

7. solve for B.
A= log 3B - log C

8. 2 log 2(base) (x+2)-log 2(base) (3x-2)=2
show me all your work plz its urgent thank you

In Monopoly a player starts on the "Go" space and moves around the board according to a dice roll. There are a total of 40 spaces on the board. The "best" space to land on is Boardwalk, which is exactly 39 spaces from "Go".

Assuming fair dice and, for the sake of simplicity, no space sends you anywhere else on the board (even though this is, of course, untrue), how many times can a player expect to go around the board before landing on Boardwalk? Also, what's the probability of landing on Boardwalk the first time around the board?

for example when we write a fraction we write the numerator first. then put a line below the numerator and below the numerator wwe write the denominator. Is it possible to write the same thing in computer. when we write 1/2 like this is it any way that it automaically changes into the fractional form as we see in text books
