A rectangular prism must have a base with an area of no more than 27 square meters. The width of the base must be 9 meters less

den301095 [7]

Answer:

The maximum height of the prism is $12\ m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> the height of the prism

we know that

the area of the rectangular base of the prism is equal to

$A=L*W$

$A\leq 27\ m^{2}$

$L*W\leq 27$ -------> inequality A

$W=x-9$ ------> equation B

$L=W+6$ -----> equation C

Substitute equation B in equation C

$L=(x-9)+6$

$L=x-3$ ------> equation D

Substitute equation B and equation D in the inequality A

$(x-3)*(x-9)\leq 27$ -------> using a graphing tool to solve the inequality

The solution for x is the interval----------> $[0,12]$

see the attached figure

but remember that

The width of the base must be $9$ meters less than the height of the prism

the solution for x is the interval ------> $(9,12]$

The maximum height of the prism is $12\ m$

When 2(3/5 x + 2/3 y - 1/4 x -1 1/2 y + 3 )is simplified, what is the resulting expression?

vovangra [49]

Answer:

Simplifying the expression: $2(\frac{3}{5}x+\frac{2}{3}y-\frac{1}{4}x-1\frac{1}{2}y +3)$ we get $\mathbf{42x-100y-360}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to simplify the expression: $2(\frac{3}{5}x+\frac{2}{3}y-\frac{1}{4}x-1\frac{1}{2}y +3)$

First we will solve terms inside the bracket

$2(\frac{3}{5}x+\frac{2}{3}y-\frac{1}{4}x-1\frac{1}{2}y +3)$

Converting mixed fraction $1\frac{1}{2} y$ into improper fraction, we get: $\frac{3}{2}y$

Replacing the term:

$2(\frac{3}{5}x+\frac{2}{3}y-\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{3}{2}y +3)$

Now, taking LCM of: 5,3,4,2 we get 60

Now multiply 60 with each term inside the bracket

$2(\frac{3}{5}x\times60+\frac{2}{3}y\times60-\frac{1}{4}x\times60-\frac{3}{2}y\times60 +3\times60)\\2(3x\times12+2y\times20-1x\times15-3x\times30-3\times60)\\2(36x+40y-15x-90y-180)$

Now, combine like terms

$2(36x-15x-90y+40y-180)\\2(21x-50y-180)$

Now, multiply all terms with 2

$42x-100y-360$

So, Simplifying the expression: $2(\frac{3}{5}x+\frac{2}{3}y-\frac{1}{4}x-1\frac{1}{2}y +3)$ we get $\mathbf{42x-100y-360}$
