Answer:
θ = 60°
Step-by-step explanation:
The cross sectional area of the trapezoid shape will be that of a trapezoid with bases of 10 cm and (10 cm + 2·(10 cm)·cos(θ)) and height (10 cm)·sin(θ).
That area in cm² is ...
A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h = (1/2)(10 + (10 +20cos(θ))(10sin(θ)
A = 100sin(θ)(1 +cos(θ))
A graphing calculator shows this area to be maximized when ...
θ = π/3 radians = 60°
_____
<em>A</em> will be maximized when its derivative with respect to θ is zero. That derivative can be found to be 2cos(θ)² +cos(θ) -1, so the solution reduces to ...
cos(θ) = 1/2
θ = arccos(1/2) = π/3
The sales tax can be found through multiplying the total by the decimal form of the given sales tax (7.5=0.075). This operation yields 40.5 or $40.50. I really hope this helps!:)
Answer:
X=9
Step-by-step explanation:
3.5(7−x)+32=106−1.5(4x+18)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
3.5(7−x)+32=106−1.5(4x+18)
(3.5)(7)+(3.5)(−x)+32=106+(−1.5)(4x)+(−1.5)(18)(Distribute)
24.5+−3.5x+32=106+−6x+−27
(−3.5x)+(24.5+32)=(−6x)+(106+−27)(Combine Like Terms)
−3.5x+56.5=−6x+79
−3.5x+56.5=−6x+79
Step 2: Add 6x to both sides.
−3.5x+56.5+6x=−6x+79+6x
2.5x+56.5=79
Step 3: Subtract 56.5 from both sides.
2.5x+56.5−56.5=79−56.5
2.5x=22.5
Step 4: Divide both sides by 2.5.
2.5x
2.5
=
22.5
2.5
x=9
