Jill is building a wooden raised bed garden for her vegetable she wants the frame to have dimension X feet by X +3 feet if she wants the garden to have a maximum area of 50 ft.² what are the possible values of X

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 0ft < X ≤ 5.73ft

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, we have a rectangle.

For a rectangle of length L and width W, the area is:

A = L*W.

And we have:

L = X

W = X  + 3ft.

Then the area will be:

A = X*(X + 3ft) = X^2 + 3ft*X.

And we want to have a maximum area of 50ft^2.

Then we can write:

A = X^2 + 3ft*X ≤ 50ft^2

Now let's solve this for X.

Now, the first thing we can see is that both coefficients in our quadratic equation are positive, so as the absolute value of X increases, also does the whole equation.

Then makes sense start for the upper limit of X, this is when:

X^2 + 3ft*X = 50ft^2.

Now we can solve the quadratic equation:

X^2 + 3ft*X - 50ft^2 = 0

Applying the Bhaskara formula, the solutions are:

[tex]X = \frac{-3ft +- \sqrt{(3ft)^2 - 4*1*(-50ft^2)} }{2} = \frac{-3ft +-14.46ft }{2}[/tex]

Then we have two solutions:

X = (-3ft - 14.46ft)/2 = -8.73 ft.

X = (-3ft + 14.46ft)/2 = 5.73 ft

Because X represents a distance, it can only be positive, then we must select the option X = 5.73ft.

This is the maximum value of X, and we will have:

0ft < X ≤ 5.73ft

Where the lower limit is there because we can not have X = 0ft, as this does not have physical meaning.

What is an equation?

Equations are mathematical expressions that have two algebra on either side of an equal (=) sign. The expressions on the left and right are shown to be equal to one another, demonstrating this relationship. L.H.S. = R.H.S. (left-hand side = right side) is a fundamental simple equation.

As per the given equations in the question,

y = -x + 4   (i)

y = 2x - 8   (ii)

Solve the equation for x and then solve it for y as well,

-x + 4 = 2x - 8

-x -2x = -8 -4

-3x = -12

x = 4

Substitute this in equation (i)

y = -4 + 4

y = 0

Therefore, the points are (4, 0)

Amber is making a scale drawing of a movie screen. The actual dimisions of a screen in her local theater are 60 ft wide and 20 ft tall. In her scale drawing, the screen has a width of 9 in. What will the height of the screen on her drawing be? a 2 inches b 6 inches c 3 inches d 10 inches

Answers

Answer:

c 3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the dimension in feet

Width = 60 ft

Height = 20 ft

Given the dimension in inches

Width = 9in

Height = ?

To get the height in inches, we will use the equality postulate:

60 ft = 9in

20ft = x

Cross multiply

60x = 9*20

60x =180

x = 180/60

x = 3in

Hence the height of the screen will be 3inches

The stock is worth $702.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Present Value= $500

Number of periods  (n)= 3 years

Growth rate (i)= 12%

To calculate the value of the stock today, we need to use the following formula:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 500*(1.12^3)

FV= $702.5

The stock is worth $702.5.

m6 is 65 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since angle 3 and angle 1 are congruent, they are the same degree. The problem said that the sum of their angles is 230, so to find the individual angles of each, divide by two to get 115. Angle 3 and angle 6 add up to 180 degrees since they are adjacent to each other (that's an important rule you need to know). If angle 3 is 115 and you need to find angle 6, subtract 180 from 115 and you will get 65.

Answers

Answer
Y=X-5
Going up by 1
And on y axis at -5

Answer:

y = 1x - 5

m = 1, b = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation that we are solving form is known as slope intercept form: y = mx + b.

Given a graph that intersects the x axis at -5, rises one y every one run of x, the slope must be one as the point where (0,-5) → (1,-4) → (2,-3) → (3,-2)..... you can see that y, and x change by positive one every time, so this is the reasoning. A linear equation is always straight so it's slope is always the same, so you can just pick two points and find the difference in x, and y values to get the slope. Think about it like this, you start with negative five and go up one each x. Therefore, your equation is y = x - 5. As a coefficient of 1 or slope of 1 will leave x by itself since multiplying anything by 1 is itself.

Determine whether y varies directly with x. If so, find the constant of variation k write the equation

Answers

Answer:

It varies directly

k = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Table:

    x      y

   7       11

   8       13

   9       15

   10      17

Problem:, determine if y varies directly as x

Solution:

  The equation to determine if they vary directly is;

         y ∝  x

         y  = kx

From the table, y varies directly as x. As y increases, x also increases.

To find k, use any convenient value of y and x  ;

     y  = 15 and x  = 9;

        15 = k x 9

        k = [tex]\frac{15}{9}[/tex]  = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]

A delivery person uses a service elevator to bring boxes of books up to an office. The delivery person weighs 160 lb and each box of books weighs 40 lb. The maximum capacity of the elevator is 790 lb. How many boxes of books can the delivery person bring up at one​ time?
The delivery person can bring up
nothing boxes of books.

Answers

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation

So, since the weight of the delivery person is 160 lbs... and the weight limit of the elevator is 790 lbs...  Then you could subtract. If you subtract 790 lbs and 160 lbs you get 630 lbs.

So, this means that 630 lbs of boxes can go in the elevator

Since each box weighs 40 lbs, then you could divide the remaining pounds that could go on the elevator and the weight of each box. If you divide 630 lbs and 40 lbs, then you would get 15.75, but you can't carry a 75th of a box. So you in this circumstance, you would round down 15.75 to 15.

In conclusion, that's how I got my answer of 15

Aiden is replacing the tile in a rectangular kitchen. The length of the kitchen is nine feet shorter than three times its width, w. The perimeter of the kitchen is six times the width. If tiles cost $1.69 a square foot, what is the total costs to tile the kitchen?

Answers

Answer:

Total Cost of tile =  $273.28

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Let the width be = x

Then, the length of the rectangular kitchen is L = 3x - 9

The perimeter is = 6x

Suppose the cost of the tile = $1.69 a square foot.

Then the total costs to tile the kitchen is calculated as follows:

The Perimeter of the rectangle =  2(L + b)

The Perimeter of the rectangle =  2(3x - 9 + x)

The Perimeter of the rectangle =  2(4x-9)

6x = 8x - 18

- 2x = - 18

x = 18/2

x = 9

Thus, the width = x = 9 ft

the length = 3x - 9 = 3(9) - 9

the length = 27 - 9

the length = 18 ft

Area = L × W

Area = (18 × 9)ft  

Area =   162 sq. ft.

Cost of a Tile = $1.69 per sq. ft.

Thus;

Total Cost of tile = $1.69 × 162

Total Cost of tile =  $273.28

Fill in the blanks by creating the line perpendicular to y=1/3x-3 that goes through (-1, -4) in slope intercept form.

Answers

Answer:

y = -3x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of this perpendicular line, you'll have to keep in mind that a perpendicular line will have an opposite reciprocal of the slope of the line you are given. Here's what I mean:

Given Line: y = 1/3x - 3

Slope of Perpendicular Line: m = -3/1 = -3

Now, you'll have to find the y-intercept. But, to make sure your line passes through the given points, (-1, -4), you'll have to plug in the x and y values:

y = mx + b

-4 = (-3) (-1) + b

-4 = 3 + b

b = -7

Now just plug in your y-intercept and slope into the slope-intercept formula:

y = -3x - 7
