Illustrate the given problem. Refer to the diagram attached to aid our solution.

Area of bigger rectangle:
A = (L+8)(W+16)

Area of smaller rectangle (printed area)
388 = LW

From the second equation, we can express L in terms of W.
L = 388/W
Replace this to the first equation:
A = (388/W+8)(W+16)
A = 388 + 6208/W + 8W + 128
A = 6208/W + 8W + 516
Derive A with respect to W and equate to zero (calculus):
dA/dW = -6208/W² + 8 = 0
-6208/W² = -8
W² = -6208/-8 = 776
W = √776 = 27.86 cm
L = 388/27.86 = 13.93 cm

Thus, the smallest area would be:
A = (13.93 cm)(27.86 cm)
<em>A = 388.09 cm²</em>

What is the solution of the equation 17 = 3x − 4?
pogonyaev

Answer:

<em>x = 7</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

17 = 3X + -4

Reorder the terms:

17 = -4 + 3X

Solving

17 = -4 + 3X

Solving for variable 'X'.

Move all terms containing X to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3X' to each side of the equation.

17 + -3X = -4 + 3X + -3X

Combine like terms: 3X + -3X = 0

17 + -3X = -4 + 0

17 + -3X = -4

Add '-17' to each side of the equation.

17 + -17 + -3X = -4 + -17

Combine like terms: 17 + -17 = 0

0 + -3X = -4 + -17

-3X = -4 + -17

Combine like terms: -4 + -17 = -21

-3X = -21

Divide each side by '-3'.

X = 7

Simplifying

X = 7

Build the greatest number less than 700 that has 9 in the tens place and different digits in each of the other places
suter [353]
I think the greatest number less than 700 with 9 in the tens place and different digits in each of the other places is 698.
I chose 6 to be in the one of hundreds place because it is the greatest number that is less than 7 in the hundreds place. I also chose 8 to be in the ones place because it is different from 6 and 9 and the greatest number in the ones place that is not 9.
