Length of wooden flooring strip = 20\frac{1}{2} or \frac{41}{2}

Length of strip cut off = 4\frac{3}{4} or \frac{19}{4}

So, the new length of the strip will be=

\frac{41}{2}- \frac{19}{4}

=\frac{82-19}{4}=\frac{63}{4}

Hence, the new length of the flooring strip will be \frac{63}{4} inches and in mixed fraction it will be 15\frac{3}{4} inches.

Which of the following decimal<br> representations is an example of<br> a rational number?
STALIN [3.7K]
B because the line over the 28 means that it’s repeating and a repeating decimal = rational number example : 27.67777777 is a rational number because it’s repeating and an irrational number would be 27.6719473637

Hello,
To exist x≠0

if x>0 then
x+2/x>=3==>x²+2>=3x
==>x²-3x+2>=0
==>(x-2)(x-1)>=0 positive out of the roots
==>  (x<=1 or x>=2) and x>0
==>(0<x<=1) or (x>=2)
else
x<0
x+2/x>=3==>x²+2<=3x
==>x²-3x+2<=0 negative betheen the roots
==>(1<=x<=2) and x<0 : no solution
end if

Suppose an airline policy states that all baggage must be box shaped with a sum of​ length, width, and height not exceeding 114
NISA [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the length of one side of the base be s and the height by h.  Then the volume of the box is V = s^2*h; this is to be maximized.

The constraints are as follows:  2s + h = 114 in.  Solving for h, we get 114 - 2s = h.

Substituting 114 - 2s for h in the volume formula, we obtain:

V = s^2*(114 - 2s), or V = 114s^2 - 2s^3, or V = 2*(s^2)(57 - s)

This is to be maximized.  To accomplish this, find the first derivative of this formula for V, set the result equal to 0 and solve for s:

dV

----- = 2[(s^2)(-1) + (57 - s)(2s)] = 0 = 2s^2(-1) + 114s - 2s^2

ds

Simplifying this, we get dV/ds = -4s^2 + 114s = 0.  Then either s = 28.5 or s = 0.

Then the area of the base is 28.5^2 in^2 and the height is 114 - 2(28.5) = 57 in

and the volume is V = s^2(h) = 46,298.25 in^3
