What is 6/a-6 = 3/a-3 ? help me please

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

a=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply all terms by a and cancel:

6+−6a=3+−3a

−6a+6=−3a+3(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−6a+6+3a=−3a+3+3a(Add 3a to both sides)

−3a+6=3

−3a+6−6=3−6(Subtract 6 from both sides)

−3a=−3

−3a

−3

=

−3

(Divide both sides by -3)

a=1

What is the solution to x – 10 > – 12? (–∞, –18) (–18, ∞) (–∞, 18) (18, ∞)

Allisa [31]

Answer:

(18, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

(18, ∞) is the only option that works. if we ignore the "greater than" sign, and just set the function equal to -12, we see that x-10=-12 would give us x=-2. If we plug in -3 for x, we get -13, which is less than -12. if we plug in -1 for x, we get -11, which is greater than -12. Therefore, with the function only having one critical point (zero), we know that every value greater than -2 is a solution. Technically, the full solution would be (-2, ∞). however, the only answer available meeting the criteria would be (18, ∞).

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

300.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the following problem: A farmer with 950 ft of fencing wants to enclose a rectangular area and then divide it into four

Alina [70]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Suppose we came up with an ideology whereby we pick a value for the length including the length dividing the inside into 4 parts(5 parallel sides), then we can get the value for breath by using the following process.

Let assume the length of the rectangle is 50;

Then, the breath can be calculated as follows:

= 50 × 5 = 250 ( since the breath is divided into 5 parallel sides)

The fencing is said to be 950 ft

So, 950 - 250 = 700

Then divided by 2, we get:

= 700/2

= 350

So for the first diagram; the length = 50 and the breath = 350

The area = 50 × 350 = 17500 ft²

Now, let's go up a little bit.

If the length increase to 100;

Then 100 × 5 = 500

⇒ 950 - 500 = 450

⇒ 450/2 = 225

The area = 225 × 100 = 22500 ft²

Suppose the length increases to 150

Then 150 × 5 = 750

⇒ 950 - 750 = 200

⇒ 200/2 = 100

The area = 150 × 100 = 15000 ft²

The diagrams for each of the outline above can be seen in the image attached below.

(b) The diagram illustrating the general solution can be seen in the second image provided below.

(c) The expression for the total area A in terms of both x and y is:

Area A = x×y

(d) Recall that:

The fencing is said to be 950 ft.

And the length is divided inside into 5 parallel sides;

Then:

5x + 2y = 950 (from the illustration in the second image below)

2y = 950 - 5x

$y = \dfrac{950}{2} - \dfrac{5}{2}x$

$y = 475- \dfrac{5}{2}x$

(e)

From (c); replace the value of y in (d) into (c)

Then:

Area A = x×y

$f(x)= x\times ( 475 -\dfrac{5}{2}x)$

Open brackets

$f(x)= ( 475 x-\dfrac{5}{2}x^2)$

(f)

By differentiating what we have in (e)

$f(x)= ( 475 x-\dfrac{5}{2}x^2)$

$f'(x)= ( 475 (1)-\dfrac{5}{2}(2x))$

$f'(x)= 475 -5x$

$\implies 475 = 5x$

x = 475/5

x = 95

From (d):

$y = 475- \dfrac{5}{2}x$

$y = 475- \dfrac{5}{2}(95)$

$y =237.5$

∴

Area A = x × y

Area A = 95 × 237.5

Area A = 22562.5 ft²
