Answer:

LENGTH= <em>1</em><em>6</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>WIDTH</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>3</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of rectangle be l

and, its width be b

So, according to question

l = b+3

and,

2(l+b)=58

[We know that perimeter of a rectangle= <em><u>2</u></em><em><u>(</u></em><em><u>l</u></em><em><u>+</u></em><em><u>b</u></em><em><u>)</u></em><em><u>]</u></em>

Substituting l=b+3 in 2nd equation

2(b+3+b)=58

2b+3=58/2

2b+3=29

2b=29-3=26

b=26/2

b= 13

So, l=b+3

l= 13+3=16

Hence the dimensions are 16 and 13

an employee makes $14.41 per hour but is getting a 7.5% increase. what is his new wage per hour to the nearest cent​
givi [52]
To calculate the employee raise, we multiply how much he is making by the percent of his raise.

Raise= 14.41*7.5%

Change to decimal 14.41*.075

Raise=.75

His raise is $10.80

First of all we will understand the question!!

<em>The</em><em> </em><em>question</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>saying</em><em> </em><em>that</em><em> </em><em>you</em><em> </em><em>are</em><em> </em><em>given</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>function</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>you</em><em> </em><em>have</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>find</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>value</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>which</em><em> </em><em>will</em><em> </em><em>give</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>maximum</em><em> </em><em>profit</em><em>.</em><em>.</em><em>.</em><em> </em><em>Lets</em><em> </em><em>solve</em><em> </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>finding</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>extrema</em><em> </em><em>using</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>vertex</em>

<em>\rm \: p(x) =  - 5 {x}^{2}  + 30x + 8</em>

  • <u>Identify the coefficients a and b of the quadratic function</u>

<em>\rm \: p(x) =   { - 5x}^{2}  + 30x + 8  \\  \rm \: a =  - 5 \: and \: b \:  = 30</em>

  • <u>Since a<0, the function has the maximum value at x, calculated by substituting a and b into x=-b/2a</u>

<u>\rm \: x =  \frac{30}{ 2 \times  (- 5)}</u>

  • <u>Solve</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>equation</u><u> </u><u>for</u><u> </u><u>x</u><u> </u>
