Mathematics
1 answer:
ValentinkaMS [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

<h2>u = 6.88</h2>

Solution,

\frac{17}{13}  =  \frac{9}{u}

Sinplify the equation using cross multiplication

17 \times u = 13 \times 9

Calculate the product

17u = 117

Divide both sides of the equation by 17

\frac{17u}{17}  =  \frac{117}{17}

Calculate

u = 6.88

Hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment..

You cut square corners from a piece of cardboard that has dimensions 32 cm by 40 cm. You then fold the cardboard to create a box
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

h = 6 cm  

l = (32-2(6)) =  20 cm

w = (40-2(6)) = 28 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question a piece of cardboard having dimensions 32 by 40

Suppose we cut square of length x

When you cut square corners from a piece of cardboard, two sides are 32-2x, and other two sides are 40-2x lengths

<h3>Step 1</h3>

Formula for the volume of box

v = height * length  * width

v = x  (32-2x)  (40-2x)

v = 4x³ - 144x² + 1280x

<h3>Step 2</h3>

Find derivative and equal it to 0

dv/dx = 4(3)x² - (2)144x + 1280

      0 = 12x² - 288x + 1280

x1 = 18.110

x2 =5.88

<h3>Step 3</h3>

Select x and plug value of x to find dimension

(32-2x) > 0

2x < 32

 x < 16

so domain say that x should be less than 16 which means x = 5.88 ≈ 6 cm

h = 6 cm  

l = (32-2(6)) =  20 cm

w = (40-2(6)) = 28 cm

The Hu family goes out for lunch, and the price of the meal was $48. The sales tax on the meal is 7%, and the family also leaves
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

The total cost of the meal is $58.56.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for problem solving with percentages.  In order to multiply by a percentage, we must first convert the percentage to a decimal by diving the percent by 100.  Since the Hu family is going to leave a 15% tip on the pre-tax amount of $48, we will need to multiply 48 x .15 = $7.20.  The Hu family must also pay a 7% sales tax on the cost of the meal.  In order to find the cost of the meal, including tax, we take the price of 48 x 1.07 = $51.36, which would be the original cost plus an additional 7% tax.  Lastly, we would need to include the tip to the post-tax total:  $51.36 + $7.20 = $58.56.

Rounding 16406.5 to nearest integer
kvasek [131]
<span>16407.

An integer is a whole number that doesn't need to be written using a fraction or decimals. (Some examples of integers are 4, 50, and -3; on the other hand, fractions or decimals like 1/2 or .3 are not).

Because we round up a number when the decimal is greater than or equal to .5 (which in this case it is), we round 16406.5 to the next biggest integer, 16407.</span><span />
