Answer:

  2 10/27 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The length is 1 7/9 = 16/9 inches. The width is 3/4 of that, so is ...

  (3/4)(16/9) = 4/3 inches

The area is the product of length and width, so is ...

  A = (16/9 in)(4/3 in) = 64/27 in²

The area of the rectangle is 2 10/27 square inches.

Multiply the top one by 3 for x, so you can eliminate x and find y

then plug in the y into one of the equations to find x

How do you graph y=2x-3
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

so on the graph you can

Step-by-step explanation:

first the y axis number comes first so you look at that the you do the x axis it should look like 2,3 or 2,-3 hope this works

Suppose you want to build a fish tank in the shape of a right rectangular box with square base and no top which will hold 6 cubi
AlekseyPX
You must develop a cost function C(x) and then minimize its value.
How much dwill the glass cost?  It's $1 per sq ft, and the total area of the glass is 4(xh), where x is the length of one side of the base and h is the height of the tank.  The area of the metal bottom is x^2, which we must multiply by $1.50 per sq ft. 

This cost function will look like this:  C(x) = 4($1/ft^2)xh + ($1.50/ft^2)x^2

but we know that (x^2)h= 6 cu ft, or h = (6 cu ft) / (x^2).  Subst. this last result into the C(x) equation, immediately above:

C(x) = 4($1/ft^2)x[6 ft^3 / x^2] + ($1.50/ft^2)x^2

Let's focus on the numerical values and ditch the units of measurement for now:

C(x) = 4x(4/x^2) + 1.50x^2, or

C(x) = 16/x + 1.5x^2

Differentiate this with respect to x:

C '(x) = -16 / x^2 + 3 x

Set this equal to 0 and solve for x:    -16/x^2 = -3x, or 16 = 3x^3

Then x^3 = 16/3, and x = 5 1/3 ft.  We already have the formula  

(x^2)h= 6 cu ft, so if x = 5 1/3, or 16/3, then (16/3)^2 h = 6, or

h = 6 / [16/3]^2.

h = 6 (9/256) = 0.21 ft.  While possible, this h = 0.21 ft seems quite unlikely.


Please work through this problem yourself, making sure you understand each step.  If questions arise, or if you find an error in my approach, please let me know.

Once again:
1.  Write a formula for the total cost of the material used:  4 sides of dimensions xh each, plus 1 bottom, of dimensions x^2.  Include the unit prices:  $1 per square foot for the sides and $1.50 per square foot for the bottom.
2.  Differentiate C(x) with respect to x.
3.  Set C '(x) = 0 and solve for the critical value(s).
4.  Calculate h from your value for x.
5.  Write the dimensions of the tank:  bottom:  x^2; height:  h

Write a word problem with 1/2 as the dividend and 3 as the divisor. then find the quotient
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

The word problem is described.

Each child will get \frac{1}{6}\text{ kg} of wheat.

Step-by-step explanation:

Word Problem:

A woman have 0.5 kg of wheat. She need to distribute it equally among her three children. How much amount of wheat will each child get?

Solution:

Total weight of wheat  =

0.5\text{ kg} = \dfrac{1}{2}\text{ kg}

Number of children = 3

Amount of wheat each child will get =

=\dfrac{\text{Total amount of wheat}}{\text{Number of children}}\\\\=\dfrac{\frac{1}{2}}{3}\\\\(\text{Divident} = \dfrac{1}{2},\text{ Divisor} = 3)\\\\=\dfrac{1}{6}\text{ kg}\\\\=0.167\text{ kg}

Thus, each child will get \frac{1}{6}\text{ kg} of wheat.
