First, we find the slope
(4,0)(0,-3)
slope = (-3 - 0) / (0 - 4) = -3/-4 = 3/4

there can be 3 possible answers for this..
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 3/4
using points (4,0)...x1 = 4 and y1 = 0
now we sub
y - 0 = 3/4(x - 4) <== this is one answer

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 3/4
using points (0,-3)...x1 = 0 and y1 = -3
now we sub
y - (-3) = 3/4(x - 0) =
y + 3 = 3/4(x - 0) <== here is another answer

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 3/4
using points (-4,-6)...x1 = -4 and y1 = -6
now we sub
y - (-6) = 3/4(x - (-4) =
y + 6 = 3/4(x + 4) <=== and here is another answer

A rectangle has a length of 12 yards less than 3 times its width. If the area of the rectangle is 135 square yards, find the len

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The length is 15 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the width with W and length with L: So

$Area = 135yd^2$

$L=3W - 12$

Required

Determine the length of the rectangle:

Area is calculated as thus:

$Area = L * W$

Substitute 3W - 12 for L and 135 for Area

$135= (3W - 12) * W$

$135= 3W^2 - 12W$

Reorder:

$3W^2 - 12W - 135= 0$

Divide through by 3

$W^2 - 4W - 45 = 0$

Expand:

$W^2 - 9W + 5W - 45 = 0$

$W(W - 9) + 5(W - 9) = 0$

$(W + 5)(W-9) = 0$

$W + 5 = 0$ or $W - 9 = 0$

$W = -5$ or $W = 9$

But width can't be negative

So:

$W = 9$

Recall that: $L=3W - 12$

$L = 3 * 9 - 12$

$L = 15$

<em>Hence, the length 15 yards</em>

A child has 4 wooden blocks. How many different ways can she stack 3 of them into a tower?

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of different ways she can stack 3 of them in a tower, we need to use the formula:

$_{n}P_{k}=\dfrac{n!}{(n-k)!}$

n = 4

k = 3

$_{n}P_{k}=\dfrac{4!}{(4-3)!}$

$_{n}P_{k}=\dfrac{4!}{1!}$

$_{n}P_{k}=\dfrac{4*3*2*1!}{(1)!}$

$_{n}P_{k}=\dfrac{4*3*2*1!}{1}$

$_{n}P_{k}=\dfrac{24}{1}$

Evaulate the function at the indicated values h(t)=t+(3/t)i find h(x-1)

alex41 [277]

<span>h<span>(t)</span>=<span>t<span>34</span></span>−3<span>t<span>14</span></span></span>

Note that the domain of h is <span>[0,∞]</span>.

By differentiating,

<span>h'<span>(t)</span>=<span>34</span><span>t<span>−<span>14</span></span></span>−<span>34</span><span>t<span>−<span>34</span></span></span></span>

by factoring out <span>34</span>,

<span>=<span>34</span><span>(<span>1<span>t<span>14</span></span></span>−<span>1<span>t<span>34</span></span></span>)</span></span>

by finding the common denominator,

<span>=<span>34</span><span><span><span>t<span>12</span></span>−1</span><span>t<span>34</span></span></span>=0</span>

<span>⇒<span>t<span>12</span></span>=1⇒t=1</span>

Since <span>h'<span>(0)</span></span> is undefined, <span>t=0</span> is also a critical number.

Hence, the critical numbers are <span>t=0,1</span>.

I hope that this was helpful.
