It equals 6 just put it like this: 6/1 nd then divide
a + b = 88 <span>
<span>
</span><span>ab = y
</span><span>
</span><span>a = 88 - b
</span><span>
</span><span>y = (88 - b)*b
</span>
<span>y = -b^2 + 88b
</span><span>
</span><span>Take the derivative and set equal to 0
</span><span>
</span><span>y' = -2b + 88 = 0
</span><span>
</span><span>2b = 88
</span>
<span>b = 44 </span></span>
<span><span>a=44</span></span>
<span><span> both numbers are 44</span></span>
Answer:
239 ft².
Step-by-step explanation:
Let P represent the price for tiling.
Let S represent the size of the room.
From the question,
Price (P) varies directly as the size (S) i.e
P & S
P = KS
Where K is the constant of proportionality.
Next, we shall determine the value of K as follow
Price (P) = $ 4224
Size (S) = 264 ft²
Constant of proportionality (K) =?
P = KS
4224 = K × 264
Divide both side by 264
K = 4224/264
K = 16
Finally, we shall determine the size of the kitchen that will cost $ 3824 for tiling.
This is illustrated below:
Price (P) = $ 3824
Constant of proportionality (K) = 16
Size (S) =?
P = KS
3824 = 16 × S
Divide both side by 16
S = 3824/16
S = 239 ft²
Therefore, the size of the kitchen is 239 ft².
Letter A is the answer to your equation problem
I think that would be 1 by 3 feet
3 is my answer
