Answer:

D. 550 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you need to understand the meaning of B.C.E. and C.E. B.C.E. means "Before common era", where "common era" is the year where Jesus Christ was born (I will just call it "The Year" since the name is so long). The date has been used as a dating system for many years.

In this case, 300 B.C.E. means 300 years before "The Year" whereas 250 C.E. means 250 years after "The Year". Thus, the total would be:

300 + 250 = 550 years

Find the slope of the line going through the points (11,5) and (20,5)

Pani-rosa [81]

So remember the formula for working out the slope:

(y2 - y1) ÷ (x2 - x1)

We already know two points:

(11, 5) and (20, 5) (Remember points are like (x, y)

Therefore y2 = 5 and y1 = 5 and x2 = 20 and x1 = 11

Substitute these into the formula from the start:

(y2 - y1) ÷ (x2 - x1)
(5 - 5) ÷ (20 - 11)
0 ÷ 9

And we can determine the slope is equal to 0 as 0 ÷ 9 = 0

Shane went bowling with his friends. The bowling alley charges $20 for an hour of group bowling plus a fee to rent each pair of

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

4x+20=31

Step-by-step explanation:

So one hour of bowling is 20 dollars and they bowled for one hour hence the 1x20 which is equal to 20. That is the base coast we add to the variable of x that is the cost of renting one pair of shoes. And since they rented 4 pairs of shoes you multiply x by 4 to get 4x. Add the 20 dollars they paid to bowl and it is 4x+20. They paid 31 dollars in total so equal the equation to 31. 4x+20=31. Solution is $2.75 per pair of shoes.

Answer:

<h3>Required <u>Answer</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

$\sf 4x+8y=10\dots\dots (1)$

$\sf -4x+2y=-30\dots\dots (2)$

by adding eq (1) and eq (2) we get

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf 4x+8y=20$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf -4x+2y=-30$

<h2>__________________________</h2>

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf 10y=-10$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf y={\dfrac {-10}{10}}$

${:}\longrightarrow$ ${\underline{\boxed{\bf y=-1}}}$

Substitute the value in eq (2)

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf -4x+2 (-1)=-30$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf -4x-2=-30$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf -4x=-30+2$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf -4x=-28$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf x={\dfrac {-28}{-4}}$

${:}\longrightarrow$ ${\underline{\boxed{\bf x=7}}}$

$\therefore$ ${\underline{\boxed{\bf (x,y)=(7,-1)}}}$

Of all rectangles with area 324324, which one has the minimum perimeter? Let P and w be the perimeter and width, respectively

ra1l [238]

Answer:

For w = 18 units perimeter is minimum

P = 2(18 + w)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Area of the rectangle = 324 units²

P is the perimeter

w is the width

Let L be the length of the rectangle

therefore,

P = 2(L + w) ............(1)

also,

Lw = 324

or

L = $\frac{324}{w}$ ..........(2)

substituting 2 in 1

P = $2(\frac{324}{w} + w)$

now,

for minimizing the perimeter

$\frac{dp}{dw}=\frac{d(2(\frac{324}{w} + w))}{dw}$ = 0

or

$2((-1)\frac{324}{w^2}+1)$ = 0

or

$(-1)\frac{324}{w^2}+1$ = 0

or

$(-1)\frac{324}{w^2}$ = -1

or

w² = 324

or

w = 18 units

For w = 18 units perimeter is minimum

therefore,

from 2

L = $\frac{324}{18}$

or

L = 18 units

objective function for P is:

P = 2(18 + w)
