Answer:
The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the original length of the piece of metal
y ----> the original width of the piece of metal
we know that
When squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the flaps are folded upward to form an open box
The dimensions of the box are

The volume of the box is equal to


so

simplify
-----> equation A
Remember that
The piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide
so
----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A

solve for y

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing
using a graphing tool
The solution is y=16
see the attached figure
Find the value of x

therefore
The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
Answer:
-1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking two points on the graph (I took (0,9) and (6,7)
Slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(7-9)/(6-0)=-2/6
=-1/3
Answer:
yes,no, no, yes
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>The slope of a line is -3
</span><span>perpendicular lines, slope is opposite and reciprocal
so </span><span>the slope of a line that is perpendicular to this line will be 1/3
answer
</span><span>C.1/3</span>
Answer:
22
Step-by-step explanation:
Points Y and X are are the midpoints of the segments HI and HG respectively.
Therefore,
By Mid-segment formula:
IG = 2*YX = 2* 11 = 22 units
