Find the minimum value of C=x+3y

Mathematics
1 answer:
marshall27 [118]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y > 6                                                                                                          (1)

3x – 2y = 9                                                                                                         (2)

x + 5y = 20                                                                                                        (3)

From (1) and (2), we have:

(2x + 3y) - (3x - 2y) > 6 - 9

5y - x > -3                                                                                                          (4)

From (3) and (4), we have:

(x + 5y) - (5y - x) > 20 - (-3)

2x > 23

x > 12,5                                                                                                               (5)

From (3) and (5), we have:

x + 5y = 20 ⇔ 12,5 + 5y > 20

5y > 7,5

y > 1,5

So: C = 4x + 3y > 12,5 × 4 + 1,5 × 3 = 50 + 4,5 = 54,5

Conclusion: C > 54,5

a rectangular frame has a length of 3 and 1/8 feet and an area of 2 and 3/4 feet.what is the width,w, feet,of the fame? please a
Galina-37 [17]
If you would like to find the width of the frame in feet, you can do this using the following steps:

length * width = area
3 1/8 feet * width = 2 3/4 square feet
25/8 feet * width = 11/4 square feet
25/8 * width = 11/4
width = 11/4 / 25/8
width = 11/4 * 8/25
width = 22/25 = 0.88 feet

The correct result would be 22/25 feet.

What are the zeros of the function f(x)=x^2-2x-15?
valkas [14]
To find the zeros of this function, we must first set the entire function equal to 0

f(x) = x² - 2x - 15 = 0

Since this is a quadratic function, we must use the quadratic formula, which is:

\frac{-b +/-  \sqrt{b^{2} - 4(a)(c) } }{2a}

Let's assign a, b, and c using our first function
x² means a = 1 (because it could be written as 1x²)
-2x means b = -2
-15 means c = -15

Now let's plug those in:

\frac{-(-2) +/- \sqrt{(-2)^{2} - 4(1)(-15) } }{2(1)}

which simplifies to:

\frac{2 +/- \sqrt{(4 + 60} }{2}

Simplified further:

\frac{2 +/- \sqrt{(64} }{2}
\frac{2 +/- 8 }{2}
And divide it by the 2 on the bottom gives us:

2 +/- 4

2+4 = 6
2-4 = -2

So the zeros of this function are -2 and 6

This is not a question i just need someone to make sure i did #16 right. Thanks;)
Lapatulllka [165]
I think the length of pool in inches is actually 12*12=144 because there are 12 inches in a foot.
Also, the scale factor would be 144/16 = 9.

adell [148]

Answer:

973.68 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you would expect to win 1 in 38, the amount of times you will win in 1000 times is 1000 / 38 which is 26.32. therefore you would expect to lose 1000 - 26.32 times which is 973.68
