Answer:
length=53 in
width= 23 in
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we know that each corner has now a square of 6 in long, so the heigth of the box will be of this size (as you can see in the picture attached). Then, the length and the width of the box would be the same as the piece, but with 12 in less. Therefore the equations to solve the problem are:
We factorize the 6 and we get:
Finally we solve for x, and we get the initial dimensions of the piece of metal:
Answer:
I got (y-7)=1/13(x+6) for point slope
and y=1/3x+13 for slope intercept form
double check me though I'm new at this
Answer:
x = 3.51
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, formula to determine the area f a triangle is,
Area =
8 =
16 = x(3x - 7) + 1(3x - 7)
16 = 3x² - 7x + 3x - 7
16 = 3x² - 4x - 7
0 = 3x² - 4x - 23
3x²- 4x - 23 = 0
By quadratic formula,
x =
x =
x =
x =
x = 3.51, -2.18
But the length of sides can't be negative.
Therefore, x = 3.51 will be the answer.
