<span>To minimize the perimeter you should always have a square.
sqrt(289) = 17
The dimensions should be 17 X 17
To see , try starting at length 1, and gradually increase the length.
The height decreases at a faster rate than the length increases, up until you reach a square.
Or if you want to use algebra, Say the width is 17-x
Then the length is 289/(17-x)
Now, this is bigger than 17+x, as shown here:
289/(17-x) > 17+x
289 > 289 - x^2
which is true.
so the perimeter would be bigger than 2 * (17- x + 17 + x) = 2 * (2 * 17) = 4 * 17
Again, the dimensions should be a square. 17 X 17.</span>
Answer:
$3.17
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the $12.69 and divide it by the 4 kilograms and you get 3.17. (This is rounded)
3n+2n= 5n
22+38=60
180-60=60
60=5n
n=12
For the answer to the question above asking to s<span>olve 1/2(4x + 6) = 1/3(9x - 24) with and without using the LCD of the fraction.
The problem is simple.
just multiply 1/2 to 4x + 6 which will result to 2x+3
same method on the 1/3 to 9x - 24 and it will result to 3x-8
2x+3 = 3x - 8
3x-2x = 8+3
then the answer will be x= 11</span>
