What is the result of 40-16\4
viva [34]

If the question is 40 - \frac{16}{4} , then you would do 16 ÷ 4 = 4, and then 40 - 4 = 36.


If the question is \frac{40 - 16}{4} , then you divide both 40 and 16 by 4, to get 10 - 4 = 6.


I hope this helps!

The perimeter of a rectangle is 158 cm. If the length is 7 more than 3 times the width:
Goryan [66]
Width of rectangle = x
Length =3x+7
Perimeter of rectangle = 158cm
2(l+w)=158
2(3x+7+x)=158
2(4x+7)=158
8x+14=158
8x=158-14
x=144/8
x=18
Therefore the width of the rectangle is 18cm
Length=3x+18+7
54+7=61cm
Area=lxw
=61x18
=1098^2

An open rectangular box having a volume of 108 in.3 is to be constructed from a tin sheet. Find the dimensions of such a box if
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

6 in x 6 in x 3 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

V = xyz = 108   ⇒   z = 108/(xy)

The amount of the material used is

S = xy + 2yz + 2xz

Put value of z from the volume

S = xy + 2y*108/(xy) + 2x*108/(xy) = xy + 216/x + 216/y

Now, we find the relative minimum of the function S(x,y)

First, we find the critical point. Set Sx = 0  and  Sy = 0

and solve this system:

Sx(x,y) = y - (216/x²) = 0

Sy(x,y) = x - (216/y²) = 0

From the first equation we have

y = 216/x²

Put it in the second equation and find x

x - (216/(216/x²)²) = 0

⇒  x*(1 - (x³/216)) = 0

⇒  x₁ = 0   and  x₂ = 6

Now, we can find y as follows

y₁ = 216/(0)²   which is undefined

y₂ = 216/(6)² = 6

Hence, the only critical point of S is (6, 6). Next, we calculate the second ordered derivatives that we need for the second derivative test:

Sxx(x,y) = 432/x³

Sxy(x,y) = 1

Syy(x,y) = 432/y³

Applying the second derivative test

D(6, 6) = Sxx(6, 6)*Syy(6, 6) - S²xy(6, 6) = 2*2 - 1² = 4 -1 = 3 > 0

Sxx(6, 6) = 2 > 0

Since D(6, 6) > 0   and   Sxx(6, 6) > 0   we can conclude that S has a relative minimum at (6, 6).

z coordinate is:

z = 108/(xy) = 108 / (6*6) = 3

Finally, the dimentions of a box are 6 in x 6 in x 3 in.

Two cars are traveling north along a highway. The first drives at 40 mph, and the second, which leaves 3 hours later, travels at
belka [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We will make a table and fill it in according to the information provided. What this question is asking us to find, in the end, is how long did it take the cars to travel the same distance. In other words, how long, t, til car 1's distance = car 2's distance. The table looks like this:

              d     =      r     *     t

car1

car2

We can fill in the rates right away:

             d       =      r     *     t

car1                       40

car2                       60

Now it tells us that car 2 leaves 3 hours after car 1, so logically that means that car 1 has been driving 3 hours longer than car 2:

            d     =      r      *      t

car1                     40         t + 3

car2                     60           t

Because distance = rate * time, the distances fill in like this:

                   d      =      r      *      t

car1    40(t + 3)    =      40        t+3

car2          60t     =       60         t

Going back to the interpretation of the original question, I am looking to solve for t when the distance of car 1 = the distance of car 2. Therefore,

40(t+3) = 60t and

40t + 120 = 60t and

120 = 20t so

t = 6 hours.
