Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation

2 = (1/6)x represents this situation.

2 is 1/6 of some value. In this case, the value is the total number of marbles. 2 represents 1/6 of the total number of marbles is how to read that equation in context. Solve that equation for x

2 = (1/6)x

12 = x (multiply both sides by 6 to get rid of the fraction)

Hi there!

Step-by-step explanation:

$Slope=\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}=\frac{RISE}{RUN}$

$\frac{8-2}{4-1}=\frac{6}{3}=2$

So therefore, the slope is 2.

Final answer is 2.

*The answer must have a positive sign.*

I hope this helps you!

Have a nice day! :)

A rectangular plot of farmland will be bounded on one side by a river and on the other three sides by a single-strand electric

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

525 x 1,050

A = 551,250 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'L' be the length parallel to the river and 'S' be the length of each of the other two sides.

The length of the three sides is given by:

$2S+L=2,100\\ L=2100-2S$

The area of the rectangular plot is given by:

$A=S*L\\A=S(2100-2S)\\A=2100 S -2S^2$

The value of 'S' for which the area's derivate is zero, yields the maximum total area:

$\frac{dA(S)}{dS}=\frac{d(2100 S -2S^2)}{dS}\\0= 2100 - 4S\\S=525$

Solving for 'L':

$L=2100-(2*525)\\L=1,050$

The largest area enclosed is given by dimension of 525 m x 1,050 and is:

$A = 525*1,025\\A=551,250\ m^2$
