Answer:

2(3x+6)=18

6x+12=18

6x+12-12+18-12

6x=6

6x/6=6/6

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

a. A = 50x - x² b. length = 25 inches and width = 25 inches and the maximum area is 625 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The perimeter of a rectangle P = 2(L + W) where L = length and W = width. Now, given that P = 100 inches and W = x, substituting these into the equation, we have

P = 2(L + W)

100 = 2(L + x)

dividing both sides by 2, we have

100/2 = L + x

50 = L + x

making L subject of the formula, we have

L = 50 - x

Now, the are of a rectangle A = LW. Substituting the values of L and W, we have

A = LW

A = (50 - x)x

A = 50x - x²

b. To find the largest possible area of rectangle with perimeter 100 inches, we differentiate A and equate it to zero to find the value of x that maximizes A.

So, dA/dx = d(50x - x²)/dx

dA/dx = d50x/dx - dx²/dx

dA/dx = 50 - 2x

dA/dx = 0 ⇒ 50 - 2x = 0

50 = 2x

dividing both sides by 2, we have

x = 50/2

x = 25

To find it this gives maximum value for A, we differentiate A twice.

d²A/dx² = d(50 - 2x)/dx

d²A/dx² = d50/dx - d2x/dx

d²A/dx² = -2

Since d²A/dx² = -2 < 0, so x = 25 gives maximum value for the area, A.

Since W = x = 25 in and L = 50 - x. So, L = 50 - 25 = 25 in

So, the maximum area A = LW = Lx = 25 in × 25 in = 625 in²

The dimension with perimeter 100 inches that give maximum area are length = 25 inches and width = 25 inches and the maximum area is 625 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage increase = (279 - 180)/180 x 100% = 55%

this is a topic on percentage. the above question requires a use of a kind of formula if you wish to explore more into this topic you can give me a follow on Instagram (learntionary) I've already posted some notes on this topic and will be doing more on others and also I'll be providing tips on some topics as well!

Answer:

55% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

First I want to say I recommend using sites like Calculator soup, and finding the option "percent increase calculator", for problems like these instead of wasting any points that you could use later on, and Secondly (happy to help), oof and third:

1) subtract the final value minus the starting value

279 - 180= 99

2) Divide that amount by the absolute value of the starting value

99 divided by 180 equals .55

3) Multiply by 100 to get percent increase

changes to 55.00 (final answer 55%)

4) If the percentage is negative, it means there was a decrease and not an increase.

Answer:

x - 2 and x - 1 can be possible length and width of the rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = x² - 3x + 2

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

To find possible length and width we can factorize the above expression.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

x² - 3x + 2 ( 2 = -1 × -2 )

x² - x - 2x + 2 ( 3 = -1 + -2 )

x(x - 1) + -2(x - 1)

(x - 2) (x - 1)

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

x - 2 and x - 1 can be possible length and width of the rectangle.

How does the number trick work?

Trick 1: Think of a number

Pick a whole number between 1 and 10.

Add 2.

Multiply by 2.

Subtract 2.

Divide by 2.

Subtract your original number.

Everyone's final answer will be 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Number 5 Trick. Ask somebody to think of a number and keep it secret. Then ask that person to double the secret number and then multiply by 5. Ask for the total. Whatever the total is, knock off the last digit and you will have the secret number the person mentally chose at the start.

“Think-of-a-number” tricks

These tricks come in two types: Think of a number (but don't tell me), do some arithmetic with that number, and I can predict your result. Think of a number, do some arithmetic, tell me your result, and I can instantly say what number you started with.

Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Xavier can paint the average house in 4 hours

This means that in 1 hour, Xavier paints 1/4 of the house

Mohamad can do it in 12 hours

That means in 1 hour, Mohamad paints 1/12 of the house

Hence,

Together the amount of the house they can paint in 1 hour is

1/4 + 1/12

The Least common denominator is 12

(3 × 1 + 1 × 1)/1#

= 3 + 1/12

= 4/12

= 1/3

Together they can paint 1/3 of the house

The number of hours, that it would take to paint a house if they both worked together is

= 1/3 = 1

Cross Multiply

= 3 × 1

= 3 hours

Answer:

25 and 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ratio of 2 numbers is 5 : 6 = 5x : 6x ( x is a multiplier ), then

5x + 6x = 55, that is

11x = 55 ( divide both sides by 11 )

x = 5

Thus

5x = 5 × 5 = 25

6x = 6 × 5 = 30

Then the 2 numbers are 25 and 30

hi

You have two points     A ( X;Y)  and B ( X ; Y)

 slope is   :    ( Yb -Ya)   / (Xb -Xa )

(3 - (-13) ) / ( 7 - 9)  =    (3 +13)  /  -2 =   16/-2  =  - 16/2 = -8  

slope is  -8

Answer:

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is as follows:

m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x2

You would first plug in the points into the formula, and this is what you would get:

m = 3 - (-13) / 7 - 9

From there, because of additive inverse, the negative signs would become + signs.

m = 3 + 13 / 7 - 9

You would now add/subtract.

m = 16 / -2

And lastly, you would simplify.

m = 8/-1

8/-1 is the same thing as a slope of -8.

y is equal to 200

Answer: y=-2x-9

Step-by-step explanation:

If ANGL is a square, then NG and LG are adjacent sides.

Adjacent sides are perpendicular.  [Each angle is 90°]

The equation of line NG is [tex]Y=\dfrac12 X-6[/tex].

By comparing it to equation in slope intercept form y=mx+c ( where , m= slope , c=y-interecpt)

slope =[tex]\dfrac12[/tex]

Let slope of LG be n, then

[tex]n\times \dfrac{1}{2}=-1[/tex] [Product of slopes of two perpendicular line =-1]

[tex]\Rightarrow n=-2[/tex]

Equation of a line passes through (a,b) and have slope m is given by :-

[tex](y-b)=m(x-a)[/tex]

Equation of LG :

[tex](y-1)=-2(x-(-5))\\\\\Rightarrow\ y-1=-2x-10\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=-2x-9[/tex] [In intercept form]
