Answer: The answer is x = 19.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a flower pot has a base with six equal sides of measurement (x - 6) units. We are to find the value of the unknown quantity 'x' if the perimeter of the base is 78 units.

We know that the perimeter of a polygon is given by the sum of the lengths of all the sides of the polygon.

Since each side of the six-sided base is (x - 6) units, so its perimeter will be

6\times(x-6)~\textup{units}.

According to the question, we have

6(x-6)=78\\\\\Rightarrow x-6=13\\\\\Rightarrow x=19.

Thus, the value of 'x' is 19 units.

We are going to fence in a rectangular field. If we look at the field from above the cost of the vertical sides are $10/f t, the
Brut [27]

Answer:

Dimensions are 350/9 ft and 17.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the cost per ft of all the 4 sides. Let the horizontal be x and the vertical be y.

Now, we will set up the constraint and equation that we are being asked to maximize.

Thus;

700 = 10y + 10y + 7x + 2x

700 = 20y + 9x

Maiking y the subject, we have;

y = (700 - 9x)/20

y = 35 - 9x/20

Now,area of a rectangle is: A = xy

Thus, A = x(35 - 9x/20))

A = 35x - 9x²/20

We can get the critical points by finding the derivatives and Equating to zero

Thus;

dA/dx = 35 - 0.9x

At dA/dx = 0,we have; x = 350/9

At d²A/dx², we have;

d²A/dx² = -0.9

This is negative, thus we will disregard and use the one gotten from the first derivative.

Thus, we will use x = 350/9 ft

Plugging this into the equation y = 35 - 9x/20, we have;

y = 35 - ((9 × 350/9)/20)

y = 17.5 ft

A late assignment is very much like a late payment on a credit card bill. If you lose 10 points for every day that an assignment is late and you have to pay a fee for however many days you forgot to pay the bill, (you are losing money for having to pay an extra fee). If you start the habits of turning in assignments in late.  Those habits will be carried with you into adulthood and you will owe a sum of money since you have failed to pay a bill on time. You will lose points for late work and you will lose money for late bills.
