Answer: The base is 18.3ft

Sam wants to build a wooden deck on his patio, which is in the shape of a parallelogram. The area of the patio is 280 ft2. Find the base. Round your answer to the nearest foot. (height=5x)(base=6x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Area = 280ft^2

height = 5x

Base = 6x

The area of the parallelogram A can be written as;

Area = base × height

A = b×h

Substituting the values of Area, base and height.

280 = 5x × 6x

280 = 30x^2

x^2 = 280/30

x = √(280/30)

Since the base = 6x ;

Substituting the value of x.

Base = 6x = 6(√(280/30))

Base = 18.3ft

The base is 18.3ft

What is the y-intercept of y = 5x - 1?​
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Given Equation: y=5x-1

as we know that the y intercept have, x coordinate(absicasse) equal to 0

so,put x=0 to get y intercept

i.e, y =5×0 -1

i.e, y= <em><u>-</u></em><em><u>1</u></em>

Can someone help me with this i have been trying for hours and i actually got the wrong answer so can you help me understand by
kap26 [50]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that FGH is a triangle, which means that...

Angle F + Angle G + Angle H = 180

Start by substituting the given angle measurements into the equation:

4x+2+13x-7+3x+5=180

Combine like terms

20x=180

Divide both sides by 20 to isolate x

x=9

Plug 9 back in for x to solve for each angle

Angle F = 4(9)+2=36+2=38

Angle G = 13(9)-7=117-7=110

Angle H = 3(9)+5=27+5=32

Given f'(x)=(x-4)(6-2x) find the x-coordinate for the relative minimum of the graph f(x).
vlabodo [156]
<span>The graph you plotted is the graph of f ' (x) and NOT f(x) itself. </span>

Draw a number line. On the number line plot x = 3 and x = 4. These values make f ' (x) equal to zero. Pick a value to the left of x = 3, say x = 0. Plug in x = 0 into the derivative function to get

f ' (x) = (x-4)(6-2x)
f ' (0) = (0-4)(6-2*0)
f ' (0) = -24

So the function is decreasing on the interval to the left of x = 3. Now plug in a value between 3 and 4, say x = 3.5

<span>f ' (x) = (x-4)(6-2x)
</span><span>f ' (3.5) = (3.5-4)(6-2*3.5)
</span>f ' (3.5) = 0.5

The function is increasing on the interval 3 < x < 4. The junction where it changes from decreasing to increasing is at x = 3. This is where the min happens.

So the final answer is C) 3

Match the situation to the most appropriate graph #7
tatuchka [14]
Graph K. This is because the cost of a gallon of milk is not increasing constantly, as in a linear rate, but it has only increased a few times in a year. Therefore, graph K shows that a gallon of milk is a steady, unchanged price, then the cost rises and stays the same, then rises again and stays the same. So, it is not a linear graph because the cost of the milk is not going up at a constant rate.
