15 1/4 acres of land are to be divided into lots of at least 2/3 acres each What is the maximum number of lots that can be creat
Sholpan [36]
Well, if you want the maximum number of splits, then you want to make
each individual split as small as possible. 
That's 2/3 acre.  How many will that give you ?

                  (15 and 1/4) divided by (2/3)

             =      (15.25)  /  (0.666...)  =  22.875 pieces .

The maximum number of 2/3-acre lots you can sell is 22 lots.

Then you have 58.3% of an acre of land left over that you can't sell
because it's less than 2/3 acre.  Sadly, that 58.3% of an acre is just
about the size of the lot that I've been living n for almost 30 years. 
You really know how to rub it in, dontcha !

A company with offices in Anchorage, Alaska wants to lease 10 small planes to fly a group of clients to Nome for a summer fishin
Rama09 [41]

The solutions of the equations of the situation can be:

z = 1 , y = 5, x = 4

z= 2 , y = 3, x = 5

z=3 , y = 1, x = 6

z = 0 , y = 7, x =3

The question can be expressed as a equation

6 x + 8 y + 10 z = 84

also, x + y + z = 10

⇒ x = 10- y - z

Putting it in first equation,

6(10 - y - z ) +8y + 10z = 84

⇒ 60 +2y + 4z = 84

⇒2(y + 2z ) = 14

⇒ y + 2z = 7

Now putting

z = 1 , we get y = 5,

z= 2 , y = 3

z=3 , y = 1

z = 0 , y = 7

So, only 4 possible solutions.

Therefore, there can only be 4 possible solutions for the equations.

Given the equation 3x - 4y = 8, which equation below would cause a consistent-dependent system?
Len [333]
3x - 4y = 8

y = mx + b ; m is the slope ; b is the y-intercept

-4y = -3x + 8
y = -3x/-4 + 8/-4
<u>y = 3/4 x - 2</u>

Need to check if the given choices have the same slope.

3x + 4y = -8
4y = -3x - 8
y = -3/4 x - 8/4 = -3/4 x - 2

6x - 8y = 12
-8y = -6x  + 12
y = -6/-8 x + 12/-8
y = 3/4 x - 1 1/2

9x - 12y = 24   This equation would cause a consistent-dependent system
-12y = -9x + 24
y = -9/-12 x + 24/-12
<u>y = 3/4 x - 2</u>  

16x + 12y = -10
12y = -16x - 10
y = -16/12 x - 10/12
y = -1 1/3 x - 5/6
