Ron is 8 years old and 40 inches tall. If he grows at the same rate every year, how tall was he when he was 5 years old?

2 answers:

5 0

He would be 25 inches tall.

40 divided by 8 would equal 5 so at age 1, he was 5 inches tall. So 5 times 5 which is how old he was, would equal 25 inches.

f(x)=3[x-2]
So, f(5.9) = ?
f(5.9) = 3(5.9 - 2)
=3(3.9)
=11.7 = 12
Thus, the answer is 12.

A billboard designer has decided that a sign should have 3 ft margins at the top and bottom and 5 ft margins on the left and rig

elixir [45]

Answer:

The width of billboard is "[x]" and the height of billboard is "[y"]. If total area of billboard is $9000 ft^2$ then $9000=xy$

Step-by-step explanation:

• The total width of billboard is [x]. Therefore the width of printed area will be (x-10) by excluding margin of left and right side.

• The total height of billboard is [y]. Therefore the height of printed area will be [(y-6)] by excluding the margin of top and bottom from the total height.

• To find the printed area of billboard calculations are given below:

$& 9000=xy$

$& y=\frac{9000}{x} \\ & A=(x-10)(y-6) \\ & A=xy-6x-10y+60 \\ & A=x\left( \frac{9000}{x} \right)-6x-10\left( \frac{9000}{x} \right)+60 \\ & A=9060-6x-\frac{9000}{x} \\$

On taking the first order derivative of A

$A'=-6+\left( \frac{90000}{{{x}^{2}}} \right)$

$& \left( \frac{90000}{{{x}^{2}}} \right)-6=0 \\ & 6{{x}^{2}}=90000 \\ & x=\sqrt{15000} \\ & y=\frac{9000}{x}=\frac{90000}{\sqrt{15000}}=10\sqrt{150} \\$
