400lbs/340ft^2

Factor out largest common factor.  LCF is the product of shared primes of the numbers prime factorization.

400=2*2*2*2*5*5,  340=2*2*5*17

So the product of the shared primes is 2*2*5=20, so divide the numerator and denominator by 40.

(400/20)lbs/(340/20)ft^2

20lbs/17ft^2  or if you prefer

(20/17)lbs/ft^2

(1 3/17)lbs/ft^2 or approximately

1.18 lbs/ft^2

What is the value of AAA when we rewrite \left(\dfrac {6}{17}\right)^{9x}( 17 6 ​ ) 9x (, start fraction, 6, divided by, 17, end
sineoko [7]

We have been given an expression \left(\dfrac {6}{17}\right)^{9x}. We are asked to find the value of A when rewrite our given expression as A^{x}.

To solve our given problem, we will use exponent properties.

Using exponent property a^{mn}=(a^m)^n, we can rewrite our given expression as:

\left(\dfrac {6}{17}\right)^{9x}=\left(\left(\dfrac {6}{17}\right)^9\right)^{x}

Now, we will compare our expression with  A^{x}.

Upon comparing \left(\left(\dfrac {6}{17}\right)^9\right)^{x} with A^{x}, we can see that A=\left(\dfrac {6}{17}\right)^9.

Therefore, the value of A is \left(\dfrac {6}{17}\right)^9.

We can further simplify \left(\dfrac {6}{17}\right)^9 as:

\left(\dfrac {6}{17}\right)^9=\frac {6^9}{17^9}=\frac{10077696}{118587876497}

find the equation of the sides of an isosceles right angled triangle whose vertex is (-2,-3) and the base is on the line x=0​
Serggg [28]

Answer:

AC:y=x-1  CB:y=-x-5 AB:x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the triangle. The base AB is on the line x=0, the vertex C is (-2,-3)

The side AC is equal to BC. The angle ACB is 90 degrees. If the base is on the line x=o, it is on the axis Y.Explore the distance from the point C to the AB

c(-2,-3), the distance to the axis Y is equal to the modul of the coordinate x (-2), it is 2. The coordinates of point projected by the point C to the axis Y is N(0,-3). The modul of the height is 2, the height of the isosceles triangle to the base is the bisectrix, so the angle BCA is 90/2=45degrees, CBA is 180-90-45=45 degrees too

the heigt CN is equal to side NB, NB=2

Suppose B is (0,y) (x=0 because the base is on this line)

THe modul of the vector NB is equal to sqrt ((0-0)^2+(y+3)^2)= 2

modul (y+3)= 2

y=-1 or y=-5

(0,-1), (0,-5) - two points, one of them (suppose B) is (0,-5) when A is (0,-1) (A is remote from the point N on the same distance with B, because AB is the median too)

Find CB and AC

Use the equation for AC

(x-0)/(-2-0)= (y+1)/(-3+1)

x/-2= (y+1)/-2

x=y+1

y=x-1

For CB

(x-0)/ (-2-0)= (y+5)/ (-3-(-5))

x/-2= (y+5)/2

-x=y+5

y=-x-5

A fence is to be built to enclose a rectangular area of 320 square feet. The fence along three sides is to be made of material t
sergeinik [125]

The dimensions of the enclosure that is most economical to construct are; x = 14.22 ft and y = 22.5 ft

<h3>How to maximize area?</h3>

Let the length of the rectangular area be x feet

Let the width of the area = y feet

Area of the rectangle = xy square feet

Or xy = 320 square feet

y = 320/x  -----(1)

Cost to fence the three sides = $6 per foot

Therefore cost to fence one length and two width of the rectangular area

= 6(x + 2y)

Similarly cost to fence the fourth side = $13 per foot

So, the cost of the remaining length = 13x

Total cost to fence = 6(x + 2y) + 13x

Cost (C) = 6(x + 2y) + 13x

C = 6x + 12y + 13x

C  = 19x + 12y

From equation (1),

C = 19x + 12(320/x)

C' = 19 - 3840/x²

At C' = 0, we have;

19 - 3840/x² = 0

19 = 3840/x²

19x² = 3840

x² = 3840/19

x = √(3840/19)

x = 14.22 ft

y = 320/14.22

y = 22.5 ft
