General Idea:
(i) Assign variable for the unknown that we need to find
(ii) Sketch a diagram to help us visualize the problem
(iii) Write the mathematical equation representing the description given.
(iv) Solve the equation by substitution method. Solving means finding the values of the variables which will make both the equation TRUE
Applying the concept:
Given: x represents the length of the pen and y represents the area of the doghouse
<u>Statement 1: </u>"The pen is 3 feet wider than it is long"
------
<u>Statement 2: "He also built a doghouse to put in the pen which has a perimeter that is equal to the area of its base"</u>
------
<u>Statement 3: "After putting the doghouse in the pen, he calculates that the dog will have 178 square feet of space to run around inside the pen."</u>
------
<u>Statement 4: "The perimeter of the pen is 3 times greater than the perimeter of the doghouse."</u>
Conclusion:
The systems of equations that can be used to determine the length and width of the pen and the area of the doghouse is given in Option B.
In this situation the revenue is the total sales you make before all expenses.
To find the profit: 3000 - 1500 - 500 = 1000.
Your profit is $1,000.
Answer:
1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
To simplify the expression √3/√8, we can first simplify the square root terms by finding the prime factorization of each number under the square root. The prime factorization of 3 is 3, and the prime factorization of 8 is 2 * 2 * 2.
We can then rewrite the square root terms as follows:
√3/√8 = √(3) / √(2 * 2 * 2)
Next, we can use the property of square roots that says that the square root of a number is equal to the square root of each of its prime factors. This means that we can rewrite the square root term as follows:
√(3) / √(2 * 2 * 2) = √(3) / √(2) / √(2) / √(2)
Since the square root of a number is the same as the number itself, we can simplify the expression further by removing the square root symbols from the prime numbers 2:
√(3) / √(2) / √(2) / √(2) = √(3) / 2 / 2 / 2
Finally, we can use the rules of division to simplify the expression even further:
√(3) / 2 / 2 / 2 = √(3) / (2 * 2 * 2)
Since any number divided by itself is equal to 1, we can simplify the expression one last time to get our final answer:
√(3) / (2 * 2 * 2) = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8
Therefore, the simplified form of the expression √3/√8 is 1/8.
