What is the question? If you are only trying to expand the
expression then the answer would be:
1/4 (5y-3)+ 1/16 (12y+17)
(5y/4) – (3/4) + (12y/16) + (17/16)
1.25y – 0.75 + 0.75y + 1.0625
2y + 0.3125
If you are trying to find for y, then you forgot to equate
it to 0, that is:
2y + 0.3125 = 0
2y = -0.3125
<span>y = 0.15625</span>
Answer:35in.
Step-by-step explanation:
I reccomend splitting it into sections when given problems like this.
The smaller two rectangles would be 5in * 2in which is 10in then just add them together.
For the bigger one, you'd do 5-2 in order to get the missing inches which will be 3+2 once added 5in*3in is 15in.
Finally, add 15+10+10 (15=The middle rectangle and 10=the sides)
Answer:
bottom side (a) = 3.36 ft
lateral side (b) = 4.68 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to maximize the area of the window, subject to a constraint in the perimeter of the window.
If we defined a as the bottom side, and b as the lateral side, we have the area defined as:

The restriction is that the perimeter have to be 12 ft at most:

We can express b in function of a as:

Then, the area become:

To maximize the area, we derive and equal to zero:

Then, b is:

D is wrong. D= 0.4 (roughly) A B and C are the same thing = 2.25 9 divided by 4=2.25 In math OF means TIMES (like multipling) and a fraction is dividing :) Hope this helps
