First, subtract 13.24 from both sides of the equation and add -3.1t on both sides of the equation. This isolates the variable t:

-15.5t + 3.1t = -13.44 + 10.56 - 13.24

Now combine the numbers on both sides of the equation and solve for t:

-12.4t = -16. 12
t = 1.3

Hope this helps!

Help please it’s homework

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

10. 1/9

11. 1 1/6

12. 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

10.

He spent 2/3 of 1/6 of the day.

In math, "of" means multiplication, so 2/3 of 1/6 means 2/3 * 1/6.

2/3 * 1/6 = 2/18 = 1/9

He spent 1/9 of the day adding mulch.

11.

He spent 2/3 of 1 3/4 hours.

In math, "of" means multiplication, so 2/3 of 1 3/4 means 2/3 * 1 3/4.

2/3 * 1 3/4 = 2/3 * 7/4 = 14/12 = 7/6 = 1 1/6

He spent 1 1/6 hours working on the project.

12.

She planted 1/6 of 3/4 of the area.

In math, "of" means multiplication, so 1/6 of 3/4 means 1/6 * 3/4.

1/6 * 3/4 = 3/24 = 1/8

She planted carrots in 1/8 of the garden.

Which term describes the slope of the line below?

saul85 [17]

Answer:

negative

Step-by-step explanation:

looking at the slope of the straight line, a positive slope will begin on the 1st quadrant and end at the 3rd quadrant

meaning if the slope is negative, it will begin on the 2nd quadrant and end on the 4th quadrant

A box with a hinged lid is to be made out of a rectangular piece of cardboard that measures 3 centimeters by 5 centimeters. Six

kherson [118]

Answer:

x = 0.53 cm

Maximum volume = 1.75 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the attached diagram:

The volume of the box is given by

$V = Length \times Width \times Height \\\\$

Let x denote the length of the sides of the square as shown in the diagram.

The width of the shaded region is given by

$Width = 3 - 2x \\\\$

The length of the shaded region is given by

$Length = \frac{1}{2} (5 - 3x) \\\\$

So, the volume of the box becomes,

$V = \frac{1}{2} (5 - 3x) \times (3 - 2x) \times x \\\\V = \frac{1}{2} (5 - 3x) \times (3x - 2x^2) \\\\V = \frac{1}{2} (15x -10x^2 -9 x^2 + 6 x^3) \\\\V = \frac{1}{2} (6x^3 -19x^2 + 15x) \\\\$

In order to maximize the volume enclosed by the box, take the derivative of volume and set it to zero.

$\frac{dV}{dx} = 0 \\\\\frac{dV}{dx} = \frac{d}{dx} ( \frac{1}{2} (6x^3 -19x^2 + 15x)) \\\\\frac{dV}{dx} = \frac{1}{2} (18x^2 -38x + 15) \\\\\frac{dV}{dx} = \frac{1}{2} (18x^2 -38x + 15) \\\\0 = \frac{1}{2} (18x^2 -38x + 15) \\\\18x^2 -38x + 15 = 0 \\\\$

We are left with a quadratic equation.

We may solve the quadratic equation using quadratic formula.

The quadratic formula is given by

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Where

$a = 18 \\\\b = -38 \\\\c = 15 \\\\$

$x=\frac{-(-38)\pm\sqrt{(-38)^2-4(18)(15)}}{2(18)} \\\\x=\frac{38\pm\sqrt{(1444- 1080}}{36} \\\\x=\frac{38\pm\sqrt{(364}}{36} \\\\x=\frac{38\pm 19.078}{36} \\\\x=\frac{38 + 19.078}{36} \: or \: x=\frac{38 - 19.078}{36}\\\\x= 1.59 \: or \: x = 0.53 \\\\$
