Answer: the maximum number of socks she will be able to make from the leftover yarn is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of sweaters.

Let y represent the number of socks.

The baby sweaters take 10 feet of yarn and the baby socks take 5 feet of yarn. This means that the total number of feet of yarn needed to make x sweaters and y socks is expressed as

10x + 5y

She has 100 feet of yarn and wants to make 5 sweaters. This means that

10 × 5 + 5y = 100

50 + 5y = 100

5y = 100 - 50 = 50

y = 50/5

y = 10

Answer:

The % increase is 7.179 but see the remark I made below. What I have given and what it could be is a rounding error. Less than 2 dollars error is not much when you are calculating something for someone just to show them how to do it.

Step-by-step explanation:

242,555 * x/100 = 259,970           Multiply by 100

242,555 * x = 259970 * 100

242,555 * x = 25997000            Divide by 242555

x = 24997000/242444

x = 107.179

That's the total increase.

What you want is 7.179%

If you take 7.179% of 242,555 and add it onto 242555 you should get 259,970

7.1797/100 * 242555 = 17413.02

17413.02 + 242555 = 259968.02

Why isn't it exact. I'm out just about 2 whole dollars. The reason is that the % isn't exact. It's only out to 3 decimal places which apparently is not enough. You can go over my numbers if you want more exactness us use something that is rounded to 7.180 if you like.

Find a formula for the described function. A rectangle has perimeter 16 m. Express the area A of the rectangle as a function of
Alex17521 [72]
Part A:

Let the length of one of the sides of the rectangle be L, then the length of the other side is obtained as follow.

Let the length of the other side be x, then

2(L+x)=16 \\  \\ \Rightarrow L+x=8 \\  \\ \Rightarrow x=8-L

Thus, if the length of one of the side is x, the length of the other side is 8 - L.

Hence, the area of the rectangle in terms of L is given by

L(8 - L) = 8L-L^2



Part B:

To find the domain of A

Recall that the domain of a function is the set of values which can be assumed by the independent variable. In this case, the domain is the set of values that L can take.

Notice that the length of a side of a rectangle cannot be negative or 0, thus L cannot be 8 as 8 - 8 = 0 or any number greater than 8.

Hence the domain of the area are the set of values between 0 and 8 not inclusive.

Therefore,

dom(Area)=0\ \textless \ L\ \textless \ 8 \ or \ (0, 8)
