Answer:
x= 226/3 or 75.33333333333333333333333333333
Step-by-step explanation:
14y+82=6x-20
y=25
Sub y=25 into 14y+82=6x-20
14y+82=6x-20
14(25)+82=6x-20
Calculate as follows:
14(25)+82=6x-20
350+82=6x-20
432=6x-20
Add twenty to both sides:
432+20=6x-20+20
452=6x-0
452=6x
Divide both sides by 6
452=6x
452/6=6x/6
452/6=x
x= 226/3 or 75.33333333333333333333333333333
So there is 75 boxes of 12 right? You would figure out how much sticks you have by multiplying then you have to give them to 23 teachers. You take the total of sticks and divide among each teacher
I hope this helps :)
Answer:
x
=
40
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + W)
let the number be x
width = 2x + 8
length = 3(2x + 8)
substitute respectively
96 = 2 (2x + 8 + 3(2x + 8)) open the bracket
96 = 2 ( 2x + 8 + 6x + 24) collect like terms
96 = 2 (8x + 32) open the bracket
96 = 16x + 64
collect like terms
96 - 64 = 16x
32 = 16x
divide both sides by 16
32/16 = 16x/16
2 = x
therefore, the width = 2x + 8 = 2(2) + 8 = 4 + 8 = 12.
and the length = 3(2x + 8) = 6x + 24 = 6(2) + 24 = 12 + 24 = 36.
Function 1:
f(x) = -x² + 8(x-15)f(x) = -x² <span>+ 8x - 120
Function 2:
</span>f(x) = -x² + 4x+1
Taking derivative will find the highest point of the parabola, since the slope of the parabola at its maximum is 0, and the derivative will allow us to find that.
Function 1 derivative: -2x + 8 ⇒ -2x + 8 = 0 ⇒ - 2x = -8 ⇒ x = -8/-2 = 4
Function 2 derivative: -2x+4 ⇒ -2x + 4 = 0 ⇒ -2x = -4 ⇒ x = -4/-2 ⇒ x= 2
Function 1: f(x) = -x² <span>+ 8x - 120 ; x = 4
f(4) = -4</span>² + 8(4) - 120 = 16 + 32 - 120 = -72
<span>
Function 2: </span>f(x) = -x²<span> + 4x+1 ; x = 2
</span>f(2) = -2² + 4(2) + 1 = 4 + 8 + 1 = 13
Function 2 has the larger maximum.
