(p)=(333+114)•3
because 114 pages are already read and if he needs 333 pages to reach 1/3 of the book you add 114 and 333 so you can find out how much pages is 1/3 of the book. then you multiply that number by 3 because there are 3 sections of 333+114.
Area is equal to length times width. The perimeter (the amount of rope) has to equal twice the length added to twice the width so we're left with:
A = l * w
200 = 2l + 2w
solve for either l or w
l = 100 - w
plug into the area equation to get one equation with two variables
A = w(100 - w)
A = -w^2 + 100w
take the derivative
A' = -2w + 100
set the derivative equal to zero
0 = -2w + 100
2w = 100
w = 50
This is the width that maximizes the area
with a width of 50, the length must also be 50 to have a perimeter of 200
therefore, they can rope up to 50 * 50 = 2500 ft^2
For this question the answer is x= 5, -1
Answer:
5 (12p - 13) = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
p * 60 - 65 = 15
p*5*12 - 5*13 = 15
5 (12p - 13) = 15
