Yes, the 36" shelf can hold all 24 books. As 5/4=1.25" meaning, you take 1.25X24=30". So 24 books only take up 30 inches of a 36 inch shelf.
Answer: A. A=(1000-2w)*w B. 250 feet
C. 125 000 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of rectangular is A=l*w (1)
From another hand the length of the fence is 2*w+l=1000 (2)
L is not multiplied by 2, because the opposite side of the l is the barn,- we don't need in fence on that side.
Express l from (2):
l=1000-2w
Substitude l in (1) by 1000-2w
A=(1000-2w)*w (3) ( Part A. is done !)
Part B.
To find the width w (Wmax) that corresponds to max of area A we have to dind the roots of equation (1000-2w)w=0 ( we get it from (3))
w1=0 1000-2*w2=0
w2=500
Wmax= (w1+w2)/2=(0+500)/2=250 feet
The width that maximize area A is Wmax=250 feet
Part C. Using (3) and the value of Wmax=250 we can write the following:
A(Wmax)=250*(1000-2*250)=250*500=125 000 square feets
Peter's account is 910-40x, and Marla's account is 470-2x. This is a system, so you must find the number that makes both equations end up with the same number. Basically trial and error. Here is what I did:
Let's try the number 10. 910-400=510 and 470-20=450. I need a higher number.
Let's try 13 next. 910-520=390 and 470-26=444. Now the number has to be lower.
Let's try 12. 910-480=430 and 470-24=446. Close, and a little lower.
11.5 is too low, and 11.7 is too high. 11.6 has Equation 1 at 446 and Equation 2 at 446.8. Very close!
It is somewhere around 11.6. I hope that this can give you a start in figuring it out, because I don't believe in giving the complete answer, because then you do not learn anything from it.
The answer is 1,2,4,6,8 because the circle has a circumference of 9
