Answer:

$GT=10\ units$ and $TA=6\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In the diagram

Triangles GRT and GEA are similar by AA Similarity Postulate

Remember that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional

$\frac{GR}{GE}=\frac{GT}{GA}$

we have

$GR=5\ units$

$GE=5+3=8\ units$

$GT=16-x\ units$

$GA=16\ units$

substitute

$\frac{5}{8}=\frac{16-x}{16}\\ \\5*16=8*(16-x)\\ \\80=128-8x\\ \\8x=128-80\\ \\x=48/8\\ \\x=6\ units$

therefore

$GT=16-x=16-6=10\ units$

$TA=x=6\ units$

32. 15.99 x .40 = 6.40
15.99 - 6.40 = 9.59
80/ 9.59 = 8.34
Jenny can buy A. 8 CD’s with her $80

31. 5,000 x .10 = 500
5,000 - 500 = 4,500
4,500 x .15 = 675
4,500 + 675 = 5,175

MARSVECTORCALC6 3.4.020. My Notes A rectangular box with no top is to have a surface area of 64 m2. Find the dimensions (in m) t

ioda

Answer:

We would have

$l =w =\frac{8\sqrt{3}}{3} \\h = \frac{8\sqrt{3}}{6}$

where " l " is length, " w" is width and "h" is height.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Remember that

Surface area for a box with no top = $lw+2lh+2wh = 64$

where " l " is length, " w" is width and "h" is height.

Step 2.

Remember as well that

Volume of the box = $l*w*h$

Step 3

We can now use lagrange multipliers. Lets say,

$F(l,w,h) = lwh$

and

$g(l,w,h) = lw+2lh+2wh = 64$

By the lagrange multipliers method we know that

$\nabla F = \lambda \nabla g$

Step 4

Remember that

$\nabla F = (wh,lh,lw)$

and

$\nabla g = (w+2h,l+2h , 2w+2l)$

So basically you will have the system of equations

$wh = \lambda (w+2h)\\lh = \lambda (l+2h)\\lw = \lambda (2w+2l)$

Now, remember that you can multiply the first eqation, by "l" the second equation by "w" and the third one by "h" and you would get

$lwh = l\lambda (w+2h)\\\\lwh = w\lambda (l+2h)\\\\lwh = h\lambda (2w+2l)$

Then you would get

$l\lambda (w+2h) = w\lambda (l+2h) = h\lambda (2w+2l)$

You can get rid of $\lambda$ from these equations and you would get

$lw+2lh = lw+2wh = 2wh+2lh$

And from those equations you would get

$l = w =2h$

Now remember the original equation

$lw+2lh+2wh = 64$

If we plug in what we just got, we would have

$l^{2} + l^{2} + l^2 = 64 \\3l^{2} = 64 \\l = w = \frac{8\sqrt{3} }{3} \\h = \frac{8\sqrt{3} }{6}$

Express the radical using the imaginary unit, i.

MrMuchimi

Answer:

±3i

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the value ±√-9, we are to express the value using the imaginary number 'I'

±√-9 = ±√9×-1

= ±√9 × √-1

In complex number, √-1 = i

The expression becomes;

±√9 = ±3 × i

±√9 = ±3i

Hence the value in simplified form is ±3i
