-1/5of 15 =-3 then add 3 2/5th which is 17/2 so -3+17/2 = 11/2=5 1/2
➡3x - ( 7 over 12)
➡ [12 (3x ) - 7 ] over 12
➡ ( 36x - 7 ) over 12
Answer:
-2(6-3x)=-12+6x
Step-by-step explanation:
If you do the distributive property first and look at the other side of the = sign they are the same, which means that the answer would be x=x, which isn't a solution.
The dimensions that would result to maximum area will be found as follows:
let the length be x, the width will be 32-x
thus the area will be given by:
P(x)=x(32-x)=32x-x²
At maximum area:
dP'(x)=0
from the expression:
P'(x)=32-2x=0
solving for x
32=2x
x=16 inches
thus the dimensions that will result in maximum are is length=16 inches and width=16 inches
