What's the maximum area you can get for a rectangle with two sides along the x and y axes, and the opposite vertex in the first quadrant along the line y = 20 – 4x?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Remember that a triangle rectangle of length L and width W has an area:

A = W*L

In our rectangle, we have two sides along the x and y axes.

So one of the vertices of our triangle rectangle is the point (0, 0)

And the other vertex, is along the line:

y = -4x + 20

So, if the opposite vertex is at the point:

(x₁, y₁)

We can define the length as the difference between the x-values of each vertex.

L = (x₁ - 0) = x₁

And the width, similarly, as:

W = (y₁ - 0) = y₁

Such that the point (x₁, y₁) is a solution for the equation y = -4x + 20, then we have:

y₁ = -4x₁ + 20

Then we can rewrite the width as:

W = -4x₁ + 20

Now, we can write the area of our rectangle as:

A = (x₁)*(-4x₁ + 20)

A = -4*x₁^2 + 20*x₁

Now we want to maximize the area, notice that the area is given by a quadratic equation with a negative leading coefficient.

Thus, the maximum will be at the vertex of that quadratic equation.

Remember that for a general quadratic equation:

y = a*x^2 + b*x + c

The x-value of the vertex is:

x = -b/(2*a)

so, in our case, the x-value of the vertex will be:

x₁ = -20/(-4*2) = 20/8 = 5/2

Now we can evaluate this in our area equation:

A = -4*(5/2)^2 + 20*(5/2)  = 49.36

This is the maximum area of the rectangle.

Since two angles equal 180, that will be what  (4y + 12) and 64 will be equal to.

(4y + 12) + 64 = 180

76 + 4y = 180

Ahmed is working at a restaurant. His boss pays him $16.00 per hour and
promises a raise of $1.25 per hour every 6 months. Which sequence
describes Ahmed's expected hourly wages, in dollars, starting with his current
wage?

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

each of the numbers is just adding 1.25 on to it

Answer: Choice B

16.00, 17.25, 18.50, 19.75, ...

==========================================================

Explanation:

We start with $16.00 as the first term, as this is the amount the boss pays him initially. Then we add on 1.25 to get 16+1.25 = 17.25 to represent the next wage after that first raise.

Then after the second raise he gets, he'll then earn 17.25+1.25 = 18.50 an hour. This process theoretically can go on forever, but realistically the boss will likely set some kind of limit.

We say that this sequence { 16.00, 17.25, 18.50, 19.75, ... } is arithmetic with the first term of 16.00 and common difference 1.25

The common difference is the gap width between any two neighboring terms, and it's the amount the wage goes up each time he gets a raise.

How to find interquartilte range

Answers

Answer:  Choice C) 8.5

============================================================

Explanation:

Each x represents a data point location.

So, for example, having an x over 60 means 60 is part of the set.

The set of values we're working with is

{59,60,61,63,63,64,66,68,70,71,71,73}

The repeated values are due to the fact we have a stack of two 'x' markers, and they occur at 63 and 71.

To find the IQR (interquartile range), we'll first need to find the median of this set. That's the middle most value.

Count out the number of values to find that there are n = 12 values.

The list splits into two halves that are n/2 = 12/2 = 6 items each

Between slots 6 and 7 is where the median is located.

The value in slot 6 is 64 and the value in slot 7 is 66. Average those two items to get (64+66)/2 = 65

The median is 65

---------------------------------

Next, we'll form two groups L and U such that

L = set of items lower than the median

U = set of items larger than the median

Because n is even, we simply just break the original set into two equal groups (6 items each)

L = {59,60,61,63,63,64}

U = {66,68,70,71,71,73}

The values of Q1 and Q3 represent the medians of L and U in that order.

The median of set L is (61+63)/2 = 62, so Q1 = 62

The median of set U is (70+71)/2 = 70.5, which is Q3

-----------------------------------

To summarize everything so far, we have found

Q1 = 62Q3 = 70.5

Subtract those items to get the IQR

IQR = Q3 - Q1

IQR = 70.5 - 62

IQR = 8.5 which points us to choice C as the final answer.

On a coordinate plane, a curved line labeled f of x with a minimum value of (1.9, negative 5.7) and a maximum value of (0, 2), crosses the x-axis at (negative 0.7, 0), (0.76, 0), and (2.5, 0), and crosses the y-axis at (0, 2).
Which statement is true about the graphed function?

F(x) < 0 over the intervals (-∞, -0.7) and (0.76, 2.5).
F(x) > 0 over the intervals (-∞, -0.7) and (0.76, 2.5).
F(x) < 0 over the intervals (-0.7, 0.76) and (2.5, ∞).
F(x) > 0 over the intervals (-0.7, 0.76) and (0.76, ∞

Answers

Answer:

F(x) < 0 over the intervals (-∞, -0.7) and (0.76, 2.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum value of the curve = (1.9, -5.7),

The maximum value = (0, 2)

The point the function crosses the x-axis (the x-intercept) = (-0.7, 0), (0.76, 0), and (2.5, 0)

The point the function crosses the y-axis (the y-intercept) = (0, 2)

The given points can be plotted using MS Excel, from which we have;

F(x) is less than 0 over the interval from x = -∞, to x = -0.7, and the interval from x = 0.76 to x = 2.5

The correct option is therefore, F(x) < 0 over the intervals (-∞, -0.7) and (0.76, 2.5)

Answer:

A. F(x) < 0 over the intervals (-∞, -0.7) and (0.76, 2.5).

Answer:

1. the area of the triangle minus the area of the small, inner rectangle. what did you not understand there ?

the standard formula (hi, internet !) for the area of a triangle is baseline×height/2.

the standard formula (hi, first grade !) for the area of a rectangle is length×width.

that's it.

1.a.

the volume of an object regularity shaped like a silo is always ground area times height.

for this object we only need to imagine to stand the object up sideways on the triangle side.

and don't forget - an area is always a square unit (like cm²,m², ft², ...). and a volume is always a cubic unit (like cm³, m³, ft³, ...).

so then, the triangle area is the ground area. and the original long side line of the object is is height.

as we said in 1. above, the area of a triangle is baseline×height (of the triangle, not of the overall object) divided by 2.

so, we have here 6×4/2 = 6×2 = 12 m²

and now the ground area × object height = 12×8=96 m³

b.

the standard formula for the volume of a ball (hi, internet !) is pi×r³.

so, we have here pi×9³. can you calculate that with your calculator ? that is pi×729 = 2290.221 cm³

2a.

the height of the cone is (as the drawing already suggests) determined via the right-angled triangle of the radius (half of the diameter) of the ground circle, the height of the cone and the length of the sideline on the outside mantle of the cone. this sideline is the Hypotenuse (the baseline of the triangle opposite of the 90 degree angle).

so, we use Pythagoras

c² = a² + b² (c being the Hypotenuse, a and b being the sides).

11² = 8² + h²

121 = 64 + h²

h² = 57

h = 7.55 cm

2b.

the standard formula for the volume of a cone (hi, internet !) is

pi×r²×h/3

pi×8²×7.55/3 = pi×64×7.55/3 = 506 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

all of that you could easily search on the internet and since it yourself way faster than putting things in here and waiting for responses.

as there is really nothing to explain but just to use the standard formulas with the given numbers.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 18cm . if the length is (x+2), find it's width.​

Answer:

W = 7 - x

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is P= 2L + 2×W , where L is the length and W is the width.

If L = (x+2) , replacing L with the expression x+2 we have

P= 2×(X+2) + 2W ⇔ 18 = 2x + 4 + 2W ⇔ 2W =18 - 2x - 4 ⇔ 2W = 14 - 2x

⇔ W = 7 - x

Equation of circle: (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²   where (h,k) is the center.

Center( -4 , 4) and r = 5

(x -[-4])² + (y - 4)²= 5²

(x + 4)² + (y-4)² = 25

x²  + 2*4*x +4²  + y²  - 2*y*4 + 4²  = 25

x²  +8x + 16 + y²  - 8y + 16 = 25

x²  + 8x + y²  - 8y + 16 + 16 -25 = 0

x²  + 8x + y²  - 8y +7 = 0
