Answer:

a = 55/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving in steps:

3/5a = 5 1/2
3/5a = 11/2
a = 11/2 : 3/5
a = 11/2*5/3
a = 55/6 or 9 1/6

Lilit [14]

Answer:

$y-2=\displaystyle -\frac{3}{4}(x-1)$

$y=\displaystyle -\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{11}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Point-slope form: $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$ where m is the slope of the line and $(x_1,y_1)$ is a given point

Given that the slope is -3/4, we can plug it into $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$ as m:

$y-y_1=\displaystyle -\frac{3}{4}(x-x_1)$

We can also plug in the given point (1,2):

$y-2=\displaystyle -\frac{3}{4}(x-1)$

Slope-intercept form: $y=mx+b$ where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis)

To write the equation in slope-intercept form, isolate y:

$y-2=\displaystyle -\frac{3}{4}(x-1)\\\\y=\displaystyle -\frac{3}{4}(x-1)+2\\\\y=\displaystyle -\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{3}{4}+2\\\\y=\displaystyle -\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{11}{4}$

I hope this helps!

A sheet of cardboard 12 inches square is used to make an open box by cutting out squares of equal size from the four corners and

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

$x=6+3\sqrt{2}$ is the size of the square

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side of the square cut from the cardboard be “x”

Size of the square base = $12 -2x$ , height of the box = x

Volume of square box = Area * height = $(12-2x)^2 * x$

Differentiating the above equation and equating it to zero, we get –

d/dx $((12-2x)^2 * x)$

d/dx ${(144 + 4x^2 -48x)*x}$ = d/dx $(144x + 4x^3 -48x^2)$

d/dx $(144x + 4x^3 -48x^2) = 0$

$144+8x^2-96X= 0\\18 +X^2-12X = 0$

On solving above equation, we get –

$x=6+3\sqrt{2} \\ x=6-3\sqrt{2}$

Jane plans to invest $500 at 8.25% interest, compounded continuously. After 14 years, how much money has she accumulated? Has he

kenny6666 [7]

Principal amount = P = $500
Time = t = 14 years
Interest rate = r = 8.25% = 0.0825
Amount accumulated = A

Using the formula of compound interest:

$A=P e^{rt}$

Substituting the values, we get:

$A=500 e^{0.0825(14)}=1587.01
$

Thus the amount accumulated after 14 years will be $1587.01. Compared to the original amount of $500, this amount is tripled.
