Answer:

p = 25,20 cm

h = 34,32 cm

A(min) = 864,86 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let call p and h dimensions of a poster, ( length , and height respectively) and x and y  dimensions of the printed area of the poster then

p = x + 8        and      h = y + 12

Printed area = A(p) = 384 cm²     and   A(p) = x*y     ⇒ y = A(p)/x

y = 384 / x

Poster area  =  A(t) = ( x + 8 ) * ( y + 12 ) ⇒ A(t) =  ( x + 8 ) * [( 384/x ) + 12 ]

A(t)  =  384 + 12x + 3072/x + 96      A(t) = 480 + 3072/x + 12x

A(t)  =  [480x + 12x² + 3072 ] / x

A´(t) =  [(480 + 24x )* x  - (480x + 12x² + 3072]/x²

A´(t) =  0         [(480 + 24x )* x  - 480x - 12x² - 3072] =0

480x + 24x² -480x -12x² - 3072 = 0

12x² = 3072         x² = 296

x = 17,20 cm       and      y =  384/17,20      y = 22,32 cm

Notice  if you substitu the value of x = 17,20 in A(t) ; A(t) >0 so we have a minimun at that point

Then dimensions of the poster

p = 17,20 + 8  = 25,20 cm

h = 22.32 + 12 =34,32 cm

A(min) = 25,20 *34.32  

A(min) = 864,86 cm²

A line with a slope of -4 passes through the point (0, 0). What is its equation in
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer: y = -4x

Step-by-step explanation: You would use the formula y = mx + b to solve your problem. When you plug the numbers in, you get y = -4x. There would be no "+ b" because in this case, the y-intercept (b) is equal to zero. Therefore, you would not need to write "y = -4x + 0" because that would not be the equation in its simplest form.

Find the equation of the line with slope 2 that passes through the point (4,-8)
sesenic [268]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given point (4 , -8) , slope (m) = 2

Now

the equation of line is

y - y1 = m ( x - x1)

y +8 = 2 ( x -4)

y + 8 = 2x - 8

2x - 8 - 8 -y = 0

2x - y - 16 = 0

which is the required equation
