If the length is 32 and the ratio is 3:4, you'd do 32 ÷ 4 = 8. The answer is 3 × 8, which is 24 inches. I hope this helps!
Usually one will differentiate the function to find the minimum/maximum point, but in this case differentiating yields:

which contains multiple solution if one tries to solve for x when the differentiated form is 0.
I would, though, venture a guess that the minimum value would be (approaching) 5, since the function would be undefined in the vicinity.
If, however, the function is

Then differentiating and equating to 0 yields:

which gives:

or

We reject x=5 as it is when it ix the maximum and thus,

, for
10000 pounds is 5 tons
1 ton =2000 pounds
10000 ÷ 2000 =5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You used Pythagorean theroem which is correct as this does form a right triangle however 50 is the hypotenuse as the ladder is propped up against the wall. 30 would then be the height of the triangle and the base is unknown so...

50 squared minus thirty squared gives 1600 so:

Therefore x is the square root of 1600 which is 40
Take 47,000/12
12 months in a year = $3917
$3917.00 is what he would take home every month before taxes of course.
