2(x+3)=7x-24
2x+6=7x-24
(move 7x to the left by subtracting from both sides, and move the 6 to the right by subtracting from both sides)
-5x=-30
(divide -5 from both sides to get x by itself, and because the 30 and 5 are both negative, two negatives make a positive)
x=6
hope this helped

Find the measurements (the length L and the width W) of an inscribed rectangle under the line with the 1st quadrant of the x &am
Leni [432]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Find the measurements (the lenght L and the width W) of an inscribed rectangle under the line y = -\frac{3}{4}x + 3 with the 1st quadrant of the x & y coordinate system such that the area is maximum. Also, find that maximum area. To get full credit, you must draw the picture of the problem and label the length and the width in terms of x and y.

Answer: L = 1; W = 9/4; A = 2.25;

Step-by-step explanation: The rectangle is under a straight line. Area of a rectangle is given by A = L*W. To determine the maximum area:

A = x.y

A = x(-\frac{3}{4}.x + 3)

A = -\frac{3}{4}.x^{2}  + 3x

To maximize, we have to differentiate the equation:

\frac{dA}{dx} = \frac{d}{dx}(-\frac{3}{4}.x^{2}  + 3x)

\frac{dA}{dx} = -3x + 3

The critical point is:

\frac{dA}{dx} = 0

-3x + 3 = 0

x = 1

Substituing:

y = -\frac{3}{4}x + 3

y = -\frac{3}{4}.1 + 3

y = 9/4

So, the measurements are x = L = 1 and y = W = 9/4

The maximum area is:

A = 1 . 9/4

A = 9/4

A = 2.25

What number do you divide each side of the equation by to solve for g? 3g = 36
asambeis [7]

Answer:

The first option.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to effectively simplify, you need to divide the side with the variable by a number that is less than or equal to the number. 3 goes into 36 twelve times.

3g = 36.

3g/3 = g

36/3 = 12

g = 12 when divided by 3.

As a membership fee a health club charges a one time amount of $40 and charges $25 for each month. The total fee after m months
ICE Princess25 [194]
First you need to set up an equation y = mx + b. m would be the monthly charge and b would be the one time fee. x represents the number of months.
To solve for the number of months with a total price of 240 we substitute 240 in for y and solve for x.
240 = 25x + 40
subtract 40 from each side
200= 25x
divide by 25
8 = x
8 months

10 + 7r = 45
7r = 35

- (3 x 100) + (7 x 10) + (4 x D) + (2 x 100)​
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

70 + 4D

Step-by-step explanation:

- (2 x 100) + (7 x 10) + (4 x D) + (2 x 100)

   - (200) + (70) + 4D + 200

       -200 + 70 +4D + 200

             -130 + 4D + 200

                   70 + 4D
