3:2
3x - first number
2x - second number
2x = 24 / : 2
x = 12
3*12 = 36
answer: the larger number is 36.
Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation: i just did this test
Answer: I think around 0.70
Step-by-step explanation:
The dimensions that would result to maximum area will be found as follows:
let the length be x, the width will be 32-x
thus the area will be given by:
P(x)=x(32-x)=32x-x²
At maximum area:
dP'(x)=0
from the expression:
P'(x)=32-2x=0
solving for x
32=2x
x=16 inches
thus the dimensions that will result in maximum are is length=16 inches and width=16 inches
