Answer:
x = 185.458 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
When we draw a picture, we are able to see that we need to use sin∅ to solve this problem:
sin15° = 48/x
xsin15° = 48
x = 48/sin14°
Answer:
Dimensions :
x (the longer side, only one side with fence ) = 90 ft
y ( the shorter side two sides with fence ) = 45 ft
Total fence used 45 * 2 + 90 = 180 ft
A(max) =
Step-by-step explanation: If a farmer has 180 ft of fencing to encloses a rectangular area with fence in three sides and the river on one side, the farmer surely wants to have a maximum enclosed area.
Lets call "x" one the longer side ( only one of the longer side of the rectangle will have fence, the other will be along the river and won´t need fence. "y" will be the shorter side
Then we have:
P = perimeter = 180 = 2y + x ⇒ y = ( 180 - x ) / 2 (1)
And A (r) = x * y
A(x) = x * ( 180 - x ) /2 ⇒ A(x) = (180/2) *x - x² / 2
Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation :
A´(x) = 90 - x
Then if A´(x) = 0 ⇒ 90 - x = 0 ⇒ x = 90 ft
and from : y = ( 180 - x ) / 2 ⇒ y = 90/2
y = 45 ft
And
A(max) = 90 * 45 = 4050 ft²
This is the concept of algebra, suppose that the number of cats is x;
number of cats will be x-20
number of rabbits will be 3/2x
thus the total number of animals will be:
x+(x-20)+3/2x=350
7/2x=350+20
7/2x=370
x=370*2/7
x=105.7=106
therefore we conclude that there we 106 cats in the shelter
A cube has six sides so you divide 3750 by 6 to find the area of a single face. This would be 625. Area is length times width and since it is a cube you know that both are the same. This gives you an answer of 25.
The equation of any straight line, called a linear equation, can be written as: y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept of this line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis.
