Mathematics
1 answer:
Shalnov [3]1 year ago
3 0

Answer:

x = -1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x

9-17x-5-4x=7

Combine like terms

-21x +4 = 7

Subtract 4 from each side

-21x-4+4 = 7-4

-21x = 3

Divide each side by -21

-21x/-21 = 3/-21

x = -1/7

Check

9 - 17(-1/7) -5 -4(-1/7) =7

9 + 17/7 -5 + 4/7 =7

4 +21/7 = 7

4+3 = 7

7=7

An artist is constructing a piece of art in the shape of rectangle. The artist wants to use string to tightly tie each vertex of
Liula [17]

Answer:

  65.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of strings required to tie each vertex to the other three will be ...

  (4)(3)/2 = 6

Those strings will be perimeter strings plus two diagonal strings. The lengths of the perimeter strings are given as 12 ft and 7 ft. The lengths of the diagonal strings can be found using the Pythagorean theorem.

  d² = 12² +7² = 144 +49 = 193

  d = √193 ≈ 13.892

Then the total length of all strings is ...

  L = 2(12.0 +7.0 +13.9) = 65.8 . . . . feet

The artist will need 65.8 feet of string.

The constraint for the potential plant site 2 can be written as:
sdas [7]

Answer:

c. x21 + x22 + x23 less or equal than 2800 y2

Step-by-step explanation:

The plant has a maximum capacity of 2800 then the sum of all these operations must be equal to or less than 2800. The site of the plant has capacity constraint which needs to be determine through equation. The total capacity for the plant 2 is only 2800 the operation has to be distributed with keeping in mind the capacity limit.
