Answer:

$6,000

Step-by-step explanation:

If her food costed $2500 and was 25%, then she had $10,000 to begin with. 3/5 of $10,000 is $6,000, so her rent costs $6,000.

Answer:

$6,000 on rent

Step-by-step explanation:

Find her weekly salary by dividing 2500 by 0.25

2500/0.25

= 10,000

Now, find how much she spent on rent by multiplying 10,000 by 3/5

10,000(3/5)

= 6,000

So, she spent $6,000 on rent

What is 2 2/3 minus 1 1/2
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

1 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

2 2/3 = 2+2/3

1 1/2 = 1+1/2

So (2 2/3) - (1 1/2)=2+2/3-(1+1/2)=

2+2/3-1-1/2=1+(2/3-1/2)=1+(4-3)/6=1+1/6=

1 1/6

A rectangular package sent by a postal service can have a maximum combined length and girth (perimeter of a cross sectio) of 108
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The maximum volume of the package is obtained with a cross section of side 18 inches and a length of 36 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a optimization with restrictions problem.

The restriction is that the perimeter of the square cross section plus the length is equal to 108 inches (as we will maximize the volume, we wil use the maximum of length and cross section perimeter).

This restriction can be expressed as:

4x+L=108

being x: the side of the square of the cross section and L: length of the package.

The volume, that we want to maximize, is:

V=x^2L

If we express L in function of x using the restriction equation, we get:

4x+L=108\\\\L=108-4x

We replace L in the volume formula and we get

V=x^2L=x^2*(108-4x)=-4x^3+108x^2

To maximize the volume we derive and equal to 0

\dfrac{dV}{dx}=-4*3x^2+108*2x=0\\\\\\-12x^2+216x=0\\\\-12x+216=0\\\\12x=216\\\\x=216/12=18

We can replace x to calculate L:

L=108-4x=108-4*18=108-72=36

The maximum volume of the package is obtained with a cross section of side 18 inches and a length of 36 inches.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -2) and
den301095 [7]

Answer:

The equation of line is: \mathbf{4x-3y=-18}

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -2) and  (-3, 2)?

The equation of line in slope-intercept form is: y=mx+b

where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

We need to find slope and y-intercept.

Finding Slope

Slope can be found using formula: Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have x_1=-6,y_1=-2, x_2=-3, y_2=2

Putting values and finding slope

Slope=\frac{2-(-2)}{-3-(-6)}\\Slope=\frac{2+2}{-3+6} \\Slope=\frac{4}{3}

So, we get slope: m=\frac{4}{3}

Finding y-intercept

Using point (-6,-2) and slope m=\frac{4}{3} we can find y-intercept

y=mx+b\\-2=\frac{4}{3}(-6)+b\\-2=4(-2)+b\\-2=-8+b\\b=-2+8\\b=6

So, we get y-intercept b= 6

Equation of required line

The equation of required line having slope m=\frac{4}{3} and y-intercept b = 6 is

y=mx+b\\y=\frac{4}{3}x+6

Now transforming in fully reduced form:

y=\frac{4x+6*3}{3} \\y=\frac{4x+18}{3} \\3y=4x+18\\4x-3y=-18

So, the equation of line is: \mathbf{4x-3y=-18}
