Answer:

$\frac{7}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that slope, or in this case pitch, is equal to rise divided by run. In other words:

$m=\frac{rise}{run}$

where m is the slope.

From looking at the image, we can see that the rise 21 feet and the run is 24 feet. By plugging this information into the equation, we get:

$m=\frac{21}{24}=\frac{7}{8}$

So the slope, or pitch, of the roof id 7/8.

I hope you find my answer and explanation to be helpful. Happy studying.

Solve the equation <br> -13/4 -x= 1/2x -1

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

x = 2 or 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

-13/4 -x= 1/2x -1

Collect like terms

-13/4+1=1/2x+x

Using LCM

(-13+4)/4=(1+2x²)/2x

9/4=(1+2x²)/2x

Cross multiply

9(2x)=4(1+2x²)

18x=4+8x²

Turn into quadratic and solve

8x²-18x+4

Using formulae method

-b±(√b²-4ac)/2a

Where a=8, b= -18 and c=4

(-(-18)±(√(-18)²-4(8)(4))/2(8)

(18±(√324-128))/16

(18±√196)/16

(18±14)/16

(18+14)/16 or (18-14)/16

32/16 or 4/16

2 or 1/4

(9x−2.25)=(1.6+9x)<br><br> help

mel-nik [20]

Begin solving like you normally would. Add 2.25 to both sides and subtract 9x from both sides to try getting all x values on one side. However, you will find that after subtracting 9x from both sides, all x values go away, and you end with -2.25=1.6. This is not true (-2.25 is not 1.6), so the answer is no solution. There is no value of x which satisfies that equation.

Find the maximum rate of change of f at the given point and the direction in which it occurs. f(x, y) = 9 sin(xy), (0, 8)

malfutka [58]

Answer:

The magnitude is $\Delta f(0,8) = 72$

The direction is $i$ i.e toward the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The function is $f(x, y) = 9sin(xy) \ \ \$

The point considered is $(0,8 )$

Generally the maximum rate of change of f at the given point and the direction is mathematically represented as

$\Delta f(x,y) = [\frac{\delta f(x,y)}{\delta x } i + \frac{\delta f(x,y)}{\delta y } j ]$

$\Delta f(x,y) = [\frac{\delta (9sin(xy))}{\delta x} i + \frac{\delta (9sin(xy))}{\delta y} i ]$

$\Delta f(x,y) = [9y cos (x,y) i + 9xcos (x,y) j]$

At $(0,8 )$

$\Delta f (0,8) = [9(8) cos(0* 8)i + 9(8) sin(0* 8)j ]$

$\Delta f (0,8) = 72 i$
