Answer: y=-6

Step-by-step explanation: First combine like term: -7y + 6y = - y

9-(-2)=11

-y-11=-5

-y=-5+11

-y=6

y=-6

In T-ball, the distance to each successive base is 50 feet. If the distance from home plate to the pitcher’s mound is 38 feet, h
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

<h2>The distance from the pitcher's mound and to second base is 37.99 approximately.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The diamond is a square, which in this case has 50 feet long each side, and from home to pitcher is 38 feet. Notice that home is a vertex of the square and the pitcher's mound is the intersection of the diagonals, where they cut half.

We can find the distance from the pitcher to first base using Pythagorean's Theorem, where 50 feet is the hypothenuse.

50^{2} =38^{2}+x^{2}\\x^{2}=50^{2}-38^{2}\\x=\sqrt{2500-1444}\\ x=\sqrt{1056}\\ x \approx 32.5 \ ft

Therefore, the distance from the pitcher to first base is 32.5 feet, approximately.

Now, we can use again Pythagorean's Theorem to find the distance from pitcher to second base, where the hypothenuse is 50 feet.

50^{2}=32.5^{2}+y^{2}\\y^{2}=50^{2}-32.5^{2}\\y=\sqrt{2500-1056.25}\\ y =\sqrt{1443} \approx 37.99

Therefore, the distance from the pitcher's mound and to second base is 37.99 approximately.

<em>(this results make sense, because the diagonals of a square intersect at half, that means all bases have the same distance from pitcher's mound, so the second way to find the distance asked in the question is just using theory)</em>

Dress works in a factory that makes combs. He discovered that out of 500 combs, 34 of those are defective. If the factory produc
Bingel [31]

Answer: 175

Step-by-step explanation: First, a group of five hundred combs produces 34 defective combs. So if they make 2,500, you multiply how many times you add 500 to get to 2,500, which should be 5. Now multiply that to 34 and you get 175! To check it, divide: 34 divide by 150. Hope this helps!

jenna's rectangular garden borders a wall. she buys 80 ft of fencing. what are the dimensions of the garden that will maximize i
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The  dimensions are x =20 and y=20 of the garden that will maximize its area is 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:-

let 'x' be the length  and the 'y' be the width of the rectangle

given Jenna's buys 80ft of fencing of rectangle so the perimeter of the rectangle is    2(x +y) = 80

                         x + y =40

                               y = 40 -x

now the area of the rectangle A = length X width

                                                  A = x y

substitute 'y' value in above A = x (40 - x)

                                              A = 40 x - x^2 .....(1)

<u>Step :2</u>

now differentiating equation (1) with respective to 'x'

                                      \frac{dA}{dx} = 40 -2x     ........(2)

<u>Find the dimensions</u>

<u></u>\frac{dA}{dx} = 0<u></u>

40 - 2x =0

40 = 2x

x = 20

and y = 40 - x = 40 -20 =20

The dimensions are x =20 and y=20

length = 20 and breadth = 20

<u>Step 3</u>:-

we have to find maximum area

Again differentiating equation (2) with respective to 'x' we get

\frac{d^2A}{dx^2} = -2

Now the maximum area A =  x y at x =20 and y=20

                                        A = 20 X 20 = 400

                                         

<u>Conclusion</u>:-

The  dimensions are x =20 and y=20 of the garden that will maximize its area is 400

<u>verification</u>:-

The perimeter = 2(x +y) =80

                           2(20 +20) =80

                              2(40) =80

                              80 =80
