Let the number = x
11x is 11 times the number. You are to take 6 less than this. Be careful how you read six less. It means the 6 is subtracted from the 11x
11x - 6 This is what you finally get.
Answer:
15 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, the illustration for the problem is a right triangle with:
hypotenuse (C)= the length of the ladder = L
horizontal side(A) = distance from bottom of the ladder to the building = L - 6
vertical side(B) = distance from the top of the ladder to the bottom of the building = L - 3
So, we can use Pythagoras formula:
A2 +B2= C2
(L – 6 )² + (L-3)² = L²
L²-12L+36+L²-6L+9 =L²
L2 -18L+45 =0
APPLYING QUADRATIC FORMULA WE OBTAIN:
L =15 OR L=3
If L=3
Vertical side = L-3 = 0 (Length can´t be 0)
So L=15
Answer:
% change in stopping distance = 7.34 %
Step-by-step explanation:
The stooping distance is given by

We will approximate this distance using the relation

dx = 26 - 25 = 1
T' = 2.5 + x
Therefore

This is the stopping distance at x = 25
Put x = 25 in above equation
2.5 × (25) + 0.5×
+ 2.5 + 25 = 402.5 ft
Stopping distance at x = 25
T(25) = 2.5 × (25) + 0.5 × 
T(25) = 375 ft
Therefore approximate change in stopping distance = 402.5 - 375 = 27.5 ft
% change in stopping distance =
× 100
% change in stopping distance = 7.34 %
Answer:
13 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Just multiply 3.5 and 4.75
AKA
3 1/2 and 4 3/4
Change 1/2 into 2/4 so the denominators are the same
Multiply the numerators 2 and 3, you now have 6/4
3 × 4 = 12
6/4 is improper so, you need to simplify
now you have 1 1/2
Now 12 + 1 1/2 = 13 1/12
Answer:
Local max is .5
Step-by-step explanation:
The local maximum is for x values between 2 and 4
It looks like the x value is 2.5 and the y value is .5
