Answer:
m = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
−4m + 5 = -15
-4m = -15 - 5
-4m = -20
m = 5
Answer: The formula for the volume of a prism is V=Bh , where B is the base area and h is the height. The base of the prism is a rectangle. The length of the rectangle is 9 cm and the width is 7 cm.
Step-by-step explanation: my teacher tought me this
Let x be the shorter side, and y be the longer side
There would be 4 fences along the shorter side, and 2 fences along the longer side
4x + 2y = 800
Rewrite in terms of y:
y = 400 − 2x
The area of the rectangular field is
A = x*y
Replace Y with the equation above:
A = x(400 − 2x)
A = − 2x^2 + 400x
The area is a parabola that opens downward, the maximum area would occur at the parabola vertex.
At the vertex
x = −b/2a
= −400/[2(−2)]
= 100
y = 400 −2x
y = 400 -2(100)
y = 400-200
y = 200
The dimension of the rectangular field that maximize the enclosed area is 100 ft x 200 ft.
Divide the perimeter by 3 to find the side length.
Since the formula for the are of a triangle is
1/2 * b * h the height must be found.
If a perpendicular line is drawn from the apex of the triangle, a right triangle is formed with a base of 5 and a hypotenuse of 10. Also since it originally was equilateral the base angle is 60 degrees. The rules for finding lengths of sides of equal. Triangles is long leg = sqrt3 * short leg
the height is the long leg so the height is 5sqrt3.
A=(1/2)(10)(5sqrt3)= 25sqrt3
