Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Portrait is in the shape of a rectangle.

And the area of a rectangle = Length × Width

Let the length of the portrait = l

And width of the portrait = w

Area of the portrait = lw

lw = 40

l = \frac{40}{w}

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(Length + width)

Perimeter of the portrait = 2(l + w)

26 = 2(l + w)

l + w = 13 ----------(2)

By substituting the value of 'l' in equation (1) from equation (2)

\frac{40}{w}+w=13

40 + w² = 13w

w² - 13w + 40 = 0

w² - 8w - 5w + 40 = 0

w(w - 8) - 5(w - 8) = 0

(w - 5)(w - 8) = 0

w = 5, 8 feet

From equation (2)

l = 8, 5 feet

Therefore, dimensions of the portrait are (5 feet by 8 feet) Or (8 feet by 5 feet).

Find f f'(x)=1+3sqrt(x) f(4)=25
wlad13 [49]
It appears that you have a derivative and want to integrate...

dy/dx=1+3√x 

y(x)=x+(2/3)x^(3/2)+C  you are given that f(4)=25 so we can solve for the constant of integration...

y(4)=25=4+16/3+C

21=16/3+C

(63-16)/3=C

47/3=C so

f(x)=x+(2/3)x^(3/2)+47/3

f(x)=(3x+2x^(3/2)+47)/3

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST<br>What is the value of x in the figure? 1042 (3x – 19)​
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

x = 41

Step-by-step explanation:

We know these angles will be equal to each other (they are across from each other, I honestly forget the term ) so we can set up an equation

Our equation from given: 104 = 3x - 19

Adding 19 to both sides 123 = 3x

Dividing both sides by 3: 41 = x

Answer: x = 41
