Answer:

x = first piece

14 - x = second piece

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that the board is 14 feet then to find the size of the second piece, we just take the full length of the board and then subtract it to the first piece's length.

Javier has a basket of oranges and apples. The number of oranges is 2 more than twice the number of apples in the basket. The di
Vesna [10]
Hello!

Let's put this into a system of equations and have a represent the apples and o represent the oranges.

o=2a+2
0.5o-0.5a=4

Since we can already so what o equals (2a+2) we will substitute it into the second equation and solve for a.

0.5(2a+2)-0.5a=4
1a+1-0.5a=4
1.5a+1=4
1.5a=3
a=2

Now that we know the value of a will put a into the first equation to find o.

o=2(2)+2
o=4+2
o=6

There were 6 oranges and 2 apples.

I hope this helps!

Name 2 same side interior angles

Answer:

Lines a and b are parallel to each other! ... The same-side interior angle theorem states that when two lines that are parallel are intersected by a transversal line, the same-side interior angles that are formed are supplementary, or add up to 180 degrees.

Ex 2.8<br> 3. find the maximum value of y for the curve y=x^5 -3 for -2≤x≤1
harkovskaia [24]
y=x^5-3\\ y'=5x^4\\\\ 5x^4=0\\ x=0\\ 0\in [-2,1]\\\\ y''=20x^3\\\\&#10;y''(0)=20\cdot0^3=0

The value of the second derivative for x=0 is neither positive nor negative, so you can't tell whether this point is a minimum or a maximum. You need to check the values of the first derivative around the point.
But the value of 5x^4 is always positive for x\in\mathbb{R}\setminus \{0\}. That means at x=0 there's neither minimum nor maximum.
The maximum must be then at either of the endpoints of the interval [-2,1].
The function y is increasing in its entire domain, so the maximum value is at the right endpoint of the interval.

y_{max}=y(1)=1^5-3=-2

Solve the inequality for x. show each step of the solution -12x-0.4&gt;0.2(36.5x+80)-55
Darina [25.2K]

Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.

−12x−0.4>0.2(36.5x+80)−55

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.

−12x−0.4>7.3x−39

Step 2: Subtract 7.3x from both sides.

−12x−0.4−7.3x>7.3x−39−7.3x

−19.3x−0.4>−39

Step 3: Add 0.4 to both sides.

−19.3x−0.4+0.4>−39+0.4

−19.3x>−38.6

Step 4: Divide both sides by -19.3.

−19.3x

−19.3

>

−38.6

−19.3

x<2

Answer:

x<2
