The Area Of A Triangle Is 17.5 Square Meters. The Height Of The Triangle Is 3 Meters Less Than Twice

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A = ½ * base * height

A = ½ * x * (2x-3)

17.5 = ½ * (2x² - 3x)

35 = 2x² - 3x

0 = 2x² - 3x - 35

2x² - 3x - 35 = 0 .......... (the equation)

(2x + 7)(x - 5) = 0

2x + 7 = 0

2x = - 7

x = -7/2 = -3.5

x-5 = 0

x = 5

since we have two result of x, then we can choose the positive one x = 5

so the base is 5 m and the height is

h = (2x - 3) = 2*5 - 3 = 10-3 = 7 m

The length of a rectangle is x. The length and width add up to 10 inches. What is the maximum area of the rectangle? Please provide steps on how solve!

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Area=25\,\,in^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the rectangle is unknown and is defined with the letter "x". Notice that the width of the rectangle is also unknown, so we can name it 'y".

Recall the formula for the area of a rectangle (length times width), and notice that it is this quantity the one we need to maximize (find the maximum possible value).

We use the other information provided to represent the rectangle's with (y) in terms of "x" :

length + width = 10 inches

x + y = 10

Therefore,   y = 10 - x

Now we use this expression for "y" in the product for the area;

[tex]Area= x\,*\,y\\Area=x\,(10-x)\\Area=10x-x^2\\Area=-x^2+10x[/tex]

Notice that this quadratic expression corresponds to a parabola with branches pointing down (negative leading term), so its maximum value would be given at the vertex of the parabola.

Now recall that the formula for the x-value of a parabola's vertex when its function is of the form [tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex]

is given by:

[tex]x_{vertex}=-\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

which in our case where "a" = -1 and "b" = +10, gives:

[tex]x_{vertex}=-\frac{b}{2a}\\x_{vertex}=\frac{-10}{2(-1)}\\x_{vertex}=\frac{-10}{-2}\\x_{vertex}=5[/tex]

Then the maximum value for the Area can be obtained by replacing "x" with "5" in the area formula:

[tex]Area=-x^2+10x\\Area=-(5)^2+10\,(5)\\Area=-25+50\\Area=25\,\,in^2[/tex]

Therefore, the area of the rectangle is [tex]25\,\,in^2[/tex]

A trader purchased 1,000 books at the rate of $5.40 per book and spent $200 towards transportation. If he wants to earn a profit of 12.5%, at what price should he sell each book?
( with explanation )

Answers

Answer:

$6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of one book =  $5.40

cost of 1000 books = 1000* Cost of one book  =  $5.40*1000 = $5400

Transportation cost for all the books = $200

Thus, total cost for all the books = cost of 1000 books + Transportation cost for all the books  = $5400 + $200 = $5600.

Given , trader wants to earn a profit of 12.5%

thus, we find 12.5 % of total cost incurred by trader

12.5 % of total cost incurred by trader = 12.5/100 *  $5600. = $700

Thus, total profit for 1000 books will be $700

we know that

selling price = cost price + profit

therefore, in the given problem

selling price for 1000 books =  total cost for 1000 books + total profit

substituting the value as calculated above

selling price for 1000 books = $5600 + $700 = $6300

To find selling price for one book, lets divide LHS and RHS by 1000

selling price for 1000/100 books = $6300/1000 = $6.3

Thus, trader should sell each book at $6.3 to earn a profit of 12.5%.

find the slope of the line that passses thruogh 1,5 and 10,9

Answers

Answer:  The slope is 4/9  or -4/-9.

Step-by-step explanation:

(1,5)  

(10,9)   Find the difference in the y values and divide it by the difference in the x values.

5-9= -4

1- 10= -9

-4/-9= 4/9

so the slope is 4/9  

Using the slope we could also find the y-intercept and write the equation.

5=4/9 (1) + b    where b is the y-intercept

  5= 4/9 + b

-4/9   -4/9

b= 41/9  

Now we will have the equation  y= 4/9 + 41/9

Factor 4x2 - 16 using difference of two squares.

Answers

Answer:

4(x+2)(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2-16

4(x^2-4)

4(x+2)(x-2)

The difference of two squares formula is (a+b)(a-b), and it happens only when a^2 is minus b^2

So, 4x^2 − 16 = (2x + 4)(2x − 4).

Explanation:

4x2^ − 16 is of the form a^2 − b^2 (where a = 2x, b = 4), and as per the identity:

a^2 − b^2 = (a + b)(a − b)

So, 4x^2 − 16 = (2x + 4)(2x − 4)

The table of values represents the function g(x) and the graph shows the function f(x).
Which statement about the functions is true?
1. f(x) and g(x) are both absolute value functions.
2. f(−2) is greater than g(−2) .
3. f(x) and g(x) intersect at exactly two points.
4. f(x) is greater than g(x) for all values of x.

Answers

Answer:

2 and 3 are true

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Although f(x) is in fact an absolute value function and g(x) never goes below 0, g(x) is not an absolute value function because it does not grow linearly. This is known because, between even x intervals, the y value does not change the same amount.

2. f(-2)=2, and g(-2) is 1, meaning that this statement is in fact correct.

3. For this part, it would probably be a good idea to figure out the equation of both graphs. For g(x), starting at the line of symmetry at x=-3, y is 0, which means that the parabola has not been shifted up or down at all, and that its vertex is at (-3,0). Since it grows at the same rate as the parent function of a parabola, its graph is (x+3)^2. For f(x), you can see that it is an absolute value shifted left 3 and up 1, giving it an equation of |x+3|+1. Now, I've graphed both of them below, and you can see that they intersect at exactly two points, making this statement true.

4. Once again, the graph is helpful here. You can see that although f(x) starts off greater, g(x) with its exponential growth quickly overtakes it. Therefore, this statement is false.

Hope this helps!

Vivian worked 19 hours more than Malik last month. If Vivian worked 7 hours for every 2 hours that Malik worked, how many hours did they each work? Note: these are proportion problems

Answers

Answer:

Malik 7.6

Vivian 26.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Vivian is working at the rate of 7hrs per 2 hours so basically 3.5hrs per hour Malik worked. In equation, it looks like:

V=3.5m where M is the number of hours Malik worked.

We know Vivian works 19 more hours than Malik and that in equation would be:

m+19 = V

So equate the two

3.5m = m+19

3.5m-m=19

2.55m=19

m=7.6

V=7.6+19 = 26.6

What is the solution to the equation 1/4x +2= -5/8x - 5

Answers

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4x +2= -5/8x - 5

Add 5/8x to each side

1/4x +5/8x +2= -5/8x+5/8x - 5

1/4x+5/8x +2=  - 5

Subtract 2 from each side

1/4x+5/8x +2-2=  - 5-2

1/4x+5/8x =  - 7

Get a common denominator

1/4 *2/2 x + 5/8x = -7

2/8x + 5/8x = -7

7/8x = -7

Multiply each side by 8/7

8/7x * 7/8x = -7 *8/7

x = -8

Answer:

x=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4x+2=-5/8x-5

find l.c.m=8

multiply through by l.c.m which is 8

x/4×8+2×8=-5x/8×8-5×8

A rectangular lot is 50 meters wide and 90 meters long. Give the length and the width of another rectangular lot that has the same perimeter but a larger area.

Answers

Answer:

Length = 80 metres and Width = 60 metres.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length = 90m

Width = 50m

Required

Dimension of another rectangle with the same perimeter but larger area;

Perimeter of a rectangle is calculated as thus;

[tex]Perimeter = 2(Length + Width)[/tex]

Substitute: Length = 90m and Width = 50m

[tex]Perimeter = 2(90m+ 50m)[/tex]

[tex]Perimeter = 2(140m)[/tex]

[tex]Perimeter = 280m[/tex]

Area of a rectangle is calculated as thus;

[tex]Area = Length * Width[/tex]

Substitute: Length = 90m and Width = 50m

[tex]Area = 90m * 50m[/tex]

[tex]Area = 4500m^2[/tex]

So, the implication of this question is to get a rectangle whose perimeter is 280m and area is greater that 4500m²

Using trial by error method;

Assume length of a rectangle is 80m;

This means the width must be 60m

Calculating the perimeter

[tex]Perimeter = 2(80m+ 60m)[/tex]

[tex]Perimeter = 2(140m)[/tex]

[tex]Perimeter = 280m[/tex]

Calculating the area

[tex]Area = 80m * 60m[/tex]

[tex]Area = 4800m^2[/tex]

Since, the area of this rectangle is greater than the area of the previous rectangle. we can adopt this dimension.

Length = 80 metres and Width = 60 metres.

Note: There are other dimensions that have higher area and exact perimeter as the given rectangle in the question;
