Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{5}{8} = \frac{12}{g}$

Multiplying both sides by $g$ gives us the following:

$\frac{5g}{8} = 12$

Multiplying both sides by 8 gives us the following:

$5g = 108$

Dividing both sides by 5 gives us the answer:

$g = 21.6$

Hello.

To do this problem, cross multiply.

(8)(12)= 5g

96 = 5g

g = 96/5

g= 19.2

Hope that helped!

You have 42 ft. of fencing (1 ft. segments) to make a rectangular garden. How much should each side be to maximize your total ar

Verizon [17]

Answer:

$Length=10.5\ ft$

$Width=10.5\ ft$

$Area=110.25\ ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> the length of the rectangular garden

y---> the width of the rectangular garden

we know that

The perimeter of the rectangle is equal to

$P=2(x+y)$

we have

$P=42\ ft$

$42=2(x+y)$

simplify

$21=(x+y)$

$y=21-x$ ------> equation A

Remember that the area of rectangle is equal to

$A=xy$ ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

$A=x(21-x)$

$A=21x-x^{2}$ ----> this is a vertical parabola open downward

The vertex is a maximum

The y-coordinate of the vertex is the maximum area

The x-coordinate of the vertex is the length side of the rectangle that maximize the area

using a graphing tool

The vertex is the point $(10.5,110.25)$

see the attached figure

$x=10.5\ ft$

Find the value of y

$y=21-10.5=10.5\ ft$

The garden is a square

the area is equal to

$A=(10.5)(10.5)=110.25\ ft^{2}$ ----> is equal to the y-coordinate of the vertex is correct

There were 27,000 people at a ball game in Los Angeles. The day's receipts were $204,000. How many people paid $13 for reserved

Studentka2010 [4]

21000 people paid for general admission and 6000 paid for reserved seats. This is solved by making 2 equations. Out of 27000 people who were at game, x of them paid for general admission and y for reserved seats, thus
x + y = 27000
As said, daily receipts were 204000$. As reserved seat is 13$, y of them gave 13$ each (y*13$) and x of them gave 6 for general admission(x*6) and those two add up and we get second equation
13y + 6x = 204000.
This can be solved by transforming first equation into x = 27000 - y and then replacing the x in second.
13y + 6*(27000 - y) = 204000
13y + 162000 - 6y = 204000
7y = 42000
y = 6000
x + 6000 = 27000
x = 27000 - 6000 = 21000

Graph y=1/2x+2 please explain

sertanlavr [38]

The plus two is the y intercept so your point is (0,2) from there you go up one and right two and again from where you ended bc that’s the slope and from the y intercept you can go down one left two and again to continue the line
