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>

The length of a Rectangle is 5/6 feet. The width is 3/8 feet.
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

C) 11/24

Step-by-step explanation:

rewrite each fraction as equivalent fraction with common denominator.

LCM(6,8) is 24

5/6 = 20/24

3/8 = 9/24

The difference between 20/24 and 9/24 is 11/24

Which function represents the graph of h(x)=2|x+3|−1 after it is translated 2 units right?

\bf ~\hspace{10em}\textit{function transformations} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{llll} f(x)= A( Bx+ C)^2+ D \\\\ f(x)= A\sqrt{ Bx+ C}+ D \\\\ f(x)= A(\mathbb{R})^{ Bx+ C}+ D \end{array}\qquad \qquad \begin{array}{llll} f(x)=\cfrac{1}{A(Bx+C)}+D \\\\\\ f(x)= A sin\left( B x+ C \right)+ D \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \bullet \textit{ stretches or shrinks horizontally by } A\cdot B\\\\ \bullet \textit{ flips it upside-down if } A\textit{ is negative}

now with that template in mind
