What is the value of p in the equation shown? p3=0.064

ABC and EDC are straight lines. EA is parallel to DB. EC = 8.1 cm. DC = 5.4 cm. DB = 2.6 cm. (a) Work out the length of AE. cm (

harkovskaia [24]

By applying the knowledge of similar triangles, the lengths of AE and AB are:

a. $\mathbf{AE = 3.9 $ cm}\\\\$

b. $\mathbf{AB = 2.05 $ cm} \\\\$

See the image in the attachment for the referred diagram.

The two triangles, triangle AEC and triangle BDC are similar triangles.
Therefore, the ratio of the corresponding sides of triangles AEC and BDC will be the same.

This implies that:

AC/BC = EC/DC = AE/DB

Given:

$EC = 8.1 $ cm\\\\DC = 5.4 $ cm\\\\DB = 2.6 cm\\\\AC = 6.15 $ cm$

a. Find the length of AE:

EC/DC = AE/DB

Plug in the values

$\frac{8.1}{5.4} = \frac{AE}{2.6}$

Cross multiply

$5.4 \times AE = 8.1 \times 2.6\\\\5.4 \times AE = 21.06$

Divide both sides by 5.4

$AE = \frac{21.06}{5.4} = 3.9 $ cm$

b. Find the length of AB:

$AB = AC - BC$

AC = 6.15 cm

To find BC, use AC/BC = EC/DC.

Plug in the values

$\frac{6.15}{BC} = \frac{8.1}{5.4}$

Cross multiply

$BC \times 8.1 = 6.15 \times 5.4\\\\BC = \frac{6.15 \times 5.4}{8.1} \\\\BC = 4.1$

Thus:

$AB = AC - BC$

Substitute

$AB = 6.15 - 4.1\\\\AB = 2.05 $ cm$

Therefore, by applying the knowledge of similar triangles, the lengths of AE and AB are:

a. $\mathbf{AE = 3.9 $ cm}\\\\$

b. $\mathbf{AB = 2.05 $ cm} \\\\$

A protein mix claims to contain a bonus of 20% more mix than the usual size container. If the bonus size contains 18 ounces of m

agasfer [191]

Answer:

The usual size of the container is 15 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

A protein mix claims to contain a bonus of 20% more mix than the usual size container.

Let the usual size of the container was x ounces.

They increase 20% of usual size and the bonus size is 18 ounces.

Therefore, the new size should be:

$x+20\%x=18$

$x(1+0.20)=18$ (∴20%= $\frac{20}{100}$ =0.20)

$x(1.20)=18$

$x=\frac{18}{1.20}$

$x=15$

Hence, the usual size of the container is 15 ounces.

Anyone, I need help... Just answer the 6 (c)....and also proper working.☺️

Ainat [17]

Answer:

(i) The area of the rabbit cage when the width is 5.2 m is 81.5 m²

(ii) The area of the rabbit cage if Wilson has 40 meters of wire mesh is 75 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) The given relation of the area, A to the width P of the rabbit cage is A = 3·p²

The graph of the function between the values of 0 and 6 inclusive is found as follows;

A, 3·p²

0, 0

1, 1

2, 12

3, 27

4, 48

5, 75

6, 108

Please find attached the graph of A to 3·p²

From the graph, we have when the the width, p, of the rabbit cage = 5.2, the area, A ≈ 81.5 m²

The area of the rabbit cage when the width is 5.2 m = 81.5 m²

(ii) Also from the graph given that the total wire mess with Wilson = 40 meters, we have;

The formula for the perimeter of the cage = The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle = 2×length + 2×width

The formula for the perimeter of the cage = 2×3×p + 2× p = 8·p

Where the total length of the wire mesh available = 40 meters for the cage

The 40 meters of wire mesh will be used round the perimeter of the cage

∴ 40 m. = 8·p

p = 40/8 = 5 m.

At p = 5 m. the area is given as A = 75 m².

Therefore, the area of the rabbit cage if Wilson has 40 meters of wire mesh = 75 m².

A company produces two types of solar panels per year: x thousand of type A and y thousand of type B. The revenue and cost equat

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

7000 type A
6000 type B

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume your equations are intended to be ...

$C(x,y)=x^2-2xy+9y^2+3x-87y-6\\R(x,y)=5x+7y$

Then the profit equation is ...

$P(x,y)=R(x,y)-C(x,y)=5x+7y-x^2+2xy-9y^2-3x+87y+6\\=-x^2+2xy-9y^2+2x+94y+6$

The partial derivatives of profit with respect to x and y are zero when profit is maximized.

∂P/∂x = 0 = -2x +2y +2

∂P/∂y = 0 = 2x -18y +94

Simplifying, these equations are ...

y = x -1
x -9y = -47

Substituting the first into the second gives ...

x -9(x -1) = -47

-8x = -56

x = 7

y = 7 -1 = 6

The company will maximize profit by selling 7000 panels of type A and 6000 panels of type B.

7 - 8x + 22 What does X equal! x =?

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer: x = -3.625 or -29/8

Step-by-step explanation:

7-8x+22

1. -Set it equal to 0.

7-8x+22=0

2. Subtract 7 and 22 from both the left and right sides.

7-8x+22=0

-7 -22 -7 -22

8x = -29

4. Divide both sides by 8.

8x=-29

8 8

x= -3.625

Leave it in fraction form if decimal is unacceptable.

hope this helps.
