<span>For the answer to this question,
Let x = depth of the gutter
then
18 - 2x = width of the gutter
Cross section area
A = depth x width
</span><span> = x(18 - 2x)
A = 18x - 2x^2
:
Axis of symmetry will give x value for max area:
x = -b/(2a)
x = -18/(2x(-2))
x = 4.5 inches is the depth for max area
</span><span>Max area: 4.5 * 9 = 40.5 sq/in
I hope my answer helped you.</span>
The answer is d=6t ok because if you multiply 12 by 6 you get 72 as this shows their relationship
The answer is c because 3/6 simplified is equal to 1/2
Answer:
x= -15/2 y=-33/2
Step-by-step explanation:
i dont know how you want to solve it but if it is "system of equations" then first solve for the first variable in on e of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying 5x + -7 = 2x + 8 Reorder the terms: -7 + 5x = 2x + 8 Reorder the terms: -7 + 5x = 8 + 2x Solving -7 + 5x = 8 + 2x Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2x' to each side of the equation. -7 + 5x + -2x = 8 + 2x + -2x Combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x -7 + 3x = 8 + 2x + -2x Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0 -7 + 3x = 8 + 0 -7 + 3x = 8 Add '7' to each side of the equation. -7 + 7 + 3x = 8 + 7 Combine like terms: -7 + 7 = 0 0 + 3x = 8 + 7 3x = 8 + 7 Combine like terms: 8 + 7 = 15 3x = 15 Divide each side by '3'. x = 5 Simplifying x = 5
