Answer:
Report the length as x inches to the nearest quarter of an inch.
See the example below
Step-by-step explanation:
Report the length as x inches to the nearest quarter of an inch.
E.g : If the actual length is 2.4 inches then the reported length would be 2.5 in
Similarly if the actual length is 2.3 inches then the reported length would be 2.25 in
The minimum distance is the perpendicular distance. So establish the distance from the origin to the line using the distance formula.
The distance here is: <span><span>d2</span>=(x−0<span>)^2</span>+(y−0<span>)^2
</span> =<span>x^2</span>+<span>y^2
</span></span>
To minimize this function d^2 subject to the constraint, <span>2x+y−10=0
</span>If we substitute, the y-values the distance function can take will be related to the x-values by the line:<span>y=10−2x
</span>You can substitute this in for y in the distance function and take the derivative:
<span>d=sqrt [<span><span><span>x2</span>+(10−2x<span>)^2]
</span></span></span></span>
d′=1/2 (5x2−40x+100)^(−1/2) (10x−40)<span>
</span>Setting the derivative to zero to find optimal x,
<span><span>d′</span>=0→10x−40=0→x=4
</span>
This will be the x-value on the line such that the distance between the origin and line will be EITHER a maximum or minimum (technically, it should be checked afterward).
For x = 4, the corresponding y-value is found from the equation of the line (since we need the corresponding y-value on the line for this x-value).
Then y = 10 - 2(4) = 2.
So the point, P, is (4,2).

Answer:
45 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of the triangle is the sum of the 3 lengths of the traingle. Since the ratio of the sides is 4:6:9, let the shortest side be 4 units, the longest side be 9 units and the 3rd side be 6 units.
Units is represented as u.
Sum of all 3 sides= 95 m
4u +6u +9u= 95
19u= 95
u= 95 ÷19
u= 5 meters
Longest side= 9 units
Length of the longest side= 9(5) = 45m
The lest common multiple is 26. If you do multiples of each number
13:13,26
26: 26
Both of their lest common multiples would be 26
