Answer:
x= 3 inch should be turned up on each side
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height of trough be x.
Width of trough be 12 - 2x.
and length of trough = 120 inch
Volume of trough, V = L×W×H = 120 × (12-2x) × x = 120x(12 - 2x)
For maximum volume, we find V' = 0
i.e 1440 -480x = 0
or x = 
or x= 3
Hence x= 3 inch should be turned up on each side
14). (Take π value as 22/7)
circumference = 66in
2πr = 66in
2×22/7×r = 66
r = 66×7/2×22
r = 21/2in
d = 2r => d = 2×21/2
therefore diameter of the circle = 21in
15). (Take π value as 3.14)
Circumference = 3.14m
2πr = 3.14m
2×3.14×r = 3.14
r = 3.14/3.14×2
r = 1/2m
Therefore the radius of the circle = 0.5m
16). (Take π value as 22/7)
Circumference = 33km
2πr = 33km
2×22/7×r = 33
r = 33×7/2×22
r = 21/4
d = 2r
d = 2×21/4
d = 21/2km
Therefore the diameter of the circle = 10.5km
It means that the tails never actually *touch* the x-axis, but it gets infinitesimally close to it.
Answer: -3/7
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to find the slope of the line
y = mx + c where m is the slope of the line
Rearrange the equation and we get
3y = 7x + 7
y = 7x/3 + 7/3
So the slope of the line 7x - 3y = -7 is 7/3
There is another rule that states: The product of the slopes of two lines perpendicular to each other is -1
So, the slope of the line perpendicular to 7x - 3y = -7 is -1/(7/3) = -3/7
