Answer:

l=102 feet, w=68 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w=width and l=length

P=2l + 2w

And we know that w=2/3l

So, using substitution...

340=2l + 2(2/3l)

340=2l + 4/3l

340=6/3l + 4/3l

340=10/3l (now multiply both sides by 3 to get rid of fraction)

1020=10l

So l=102

Now plug in to get w

2(102)+2w=340

204+2w=340

2w=136

w=68

Now check:

2(102)+2(68)=

204+136=

340 It works!

Consider F and C below. F(x, y) = x4y5i + x5y4j, C: r(t) = t3 − 2t, t3 + 2t , 0 ≤ t ≤ 1 (a) Find a function f such that F = ∇f.
vovikov84 [41]
\mathbf f(x,y)=x^4y^5\,\mathbf i+x^5y^4\,\mathbf j

We want a scalar function f(x,y) whose gradient is equivalent to the vector field. That means

\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=x^4y^5\implies f(x,y)=\dfrac{x^5y^5}5+g(y)
\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=x^5y^4\implies x^5y^4=x^5y^4+\dfrac{\mathrm dg}{\mathrm dy}
\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dg}{\mathrm dy}=0\implies g(y)=C

So (a)

f(x,y)=\dfrac{x^5y^5}5+C

which means (b)

\displaystyle\int_{\mathcal C}\mathbf f\cdot\mathrm d\mathbf r=f(\mathbf r(1))-f(\mathbf r(0))=f(-1,3)-f(0,0)=-\dfrac{243}5-0=-\dfrac{243}5

Which is the intersection of the sets {0, 1, 5, 7, 8} and {0, 5, 7, 9}?
MrRissso [65]
The intersection of the steps is just a fancy way of asking wi\hich numbers are in both equations so lets look and see :)

The 1st = 0...1...5...7...8
The 2nd =0........5...7........9
 Answer = D {0, 5, 7}
Hope this helps have any questions let me know :)

Using the linear combination method what is the solution to the system of linear equations 7x - 2y = -20 and 9x + 4y = -6
Ghella [55]

x should equal -2 and y should equal -3 to solve this i multiplied the first equation by 2 then got rid of the 4y and -4y then i added the 14x to the 9 equaling 23x and added the -40 to the -6 which became 23x=-46 i solved this getting -s for x, then i plugged that into the equations to get y which was -3
