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 passes through (2,-7) and (-3,3) find the slope intercept form of the equation of the line
dedylja [7]

first we can find the slope between the two points by using the slope formula

m=(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

m=(3-(-7))/(-3-2)

m=(3+7)/(-3-2)

m=10/-5

m= -2

now that we have the slope, we can set up our equation. slope-intercept form is:

y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

since we have the slope, we can choose one of the points that we are given to plug in for x and y, and then solve for b

-7 = 2(-2) + b

-7 = -4 + b

-3 = b

now that we have all the values we need, we can put it into our slope-intercept formula.

y=mx+b

y=-2x+(-3)

y = -2x -3

hope this helps

A set of equations is given below:
Basile [38]
<span>x+9=2x+1 

Since both equations give the value of y, therefor y = y. You simply substitute y with its corresponding equation.

y = y
x + 9 = 2x + 1     *we need to find the value of x to get the value of y.
x - 2x = 1 - 9
-x = -8
-1x/-1 = -8/-1
x = 8

Substitute x with its value to get y.
Equation S: y = x + 9 </span>⇒ y = 8 + 9 ⇒ y = 17
Equation T: y = 2x + 1 ⇒ y = 2(8) + 1 ⇒ y = 16 + 1 ⇒ y = 17 

<span>x+9=2x+1
</span>17 = 17

Find the slope of the line y=-5/4x+3
aalyn [17]

Hello!

The slope intercept equation for a line is y=mx+b, where b is the y-intercept, and m is the slope. As you can see, the slope is always multiplied by x.

As you can see, -5/4 is multiplied by x. Therefore, our slope is -5/4.

I hope this helps!

Solve x^2=2x+3 by factoring
solong [7]

The solution is x = 1 and x = -3

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that we have to solve the given equation by factoring

Given equation is:

x^2=2x + 3\\\\x^2 - 2x - 3 = 0

\text{Consider the form } x^2+bx+c

Find a pair of integers whose product is c and and whose sum is b

\text{Compare } x^2-2x-3 = 0 \text{ with } x^2+bx +c\\\\\text{We get } b = -2 \text{ and } c = -3

Now find, a pair of integers whose sum is -2 and product is -3

The integers that satisfies this condition is -1 and 3

When we add - 1 and 3 we get 2

When multiply -1 and 3 we get -3

Thus the pair of integers are -1 and 3

Write the factored form using these integers.

(x-1)(x+3) = 0

The Zero Product Property states that if ab = 0, then either a = 0 or b = 0, or both a and b are 0

Set the factors equal to 0

x - 1 = 0 \text{ and } x + 3 = 0

x = 1 and x = -3

Thus the solution is x = 1 and x = -3
