Answer:
7. d. l = 6.48 cm, w = 6.48 cm
8. d. square
Step-by-step explanation:
For a given area, the perimeter can always be shortened by reducing the length of the long side and increasing the length of the short side. When you get to the point where you can't do that, then you have the minimum perimeter. You will reach that point when the sides are the same length: the rectangle is a square.
__
7. In light of the above, the best dimensions are √42 ≈ 6.48 cm for length and width.
__
8. In light of the above, the shape is a square.
_____
The attached graph shows the length of one side (x) and the associated perimeter. The other side is 42/x, which will also be 6.48.
Answer:
The number of deserters is 34.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to calculate the number of desertors in a group of 1500 soldiers.
The sergeant divides in groups of different numbers and count the lefts over.
If he divide in groups of 5, he has on left over. The amount of soldiers grouped has to end in 5 or 0, so the total amount of soldiers has to end in 1 or 6.
If he divide in groups of 7, there are three left over. If we take 3, the number of soldiers gruoped in 7 has to end in 8 or 3. The only numbers bigger than 1400 that end in 8 or 3 and have 7 as common divider are 1428 and 1463.
If we add the 3 soldiers left over, we have 1431 and 1466 as the only possible amount of soldiers applying to the two conditions stated until now.
If he divide in groups of 11, there are three left over. We can test with the 2 numbers we stay:
As only 1466 gives a possible result (no decimals), this is the amount of soldiers left.
The deserters are 34:
Answer:
The numerator must be greater than 16
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that a certain fraction is greater than 2. Thus, if the numerator and denominator are x and y respectively, then we have;
x/y > 2
We are further told that the denominator is 8.
Thus;
x/8 > 2
Multiply both sides by 8 to give;
x > 16
Thus,the numerator must be greater than 16.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
In the composition of <em>f</em><em> </em>and <em>g</em>, the equation is telling us to place the function <em>f</em> inside <em>g</em>. Observing in B that <em>f</em> is (x + 4), then this can be put in place of the x in 3x^2, making it 3(x + 4)^2 and finally the minus 5.
Answer:
A) y-4=-1/2(x+6)
Step-by-step explanation:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(0-4)/(2-(-6))
m=-4/(2+6)
m=-4/8
simplify
m=-1/2
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-4=-1/2(x-(-6))
y-4=-1/2(x+6)
