For sewing 3 1/2 shirts, he used = 4 2/3 yards of fabric
Then, for 1 shirt, it would be: 4 2/3 / 3 1/2

Fabric for 1 shirt = 14/3 / 7/2
We can re-write it as: 14/3 * 2/7 = 4/3 yards

In short, Final answer would be 4/3 or 1 1/3 yards

Hope this helps!

Complete the sentence. the roots of the equation x^2 - 8x - 48 = 0 are -4 and *blank*
prisoha [69]

Answer:

12 is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to get the roots of the equation is to factorize the equation but when the factors are not possible then we should apply the quadratic equations formula to get the value of x.

Now we will try to factorize

x² - 8x -48 = 0

Now we multiply coefficient of highest degree term and constant term

48×1 = 48 which may be factored in 12×4. 8×6, 24×2.

Now we will choose 12×4 out of three because the 12-4 = 8 which is the coefficient of x.

Now its simple.

x²-12x + 4x -48 = 0

x(x -12) + 4(x-12) = 0

(x +4)(x-12) = 0

Therefore roots are x + 4 = 0

x = -4

and x - 12 = 0

x = 12

So the answer is 12.

A rectangular area is formed having a perimeter of 40 cm. Determine the length and breadth of the rectangle if it is to enclose
Vilka [71]

Let x and y be the dimensions of the rectangle. If the perimeter is 40, we have

2(x+y)=40 \iff x+y=20

We can expression one variable in terms of the others as

x+y=20 \iff x=20-y

Since the area is the product of the dimensions, we have

xy=(20-y)y=-y^2+20y

This is a parabola facing down, so it's vertex is the maximum:

f(y)=-y^2+20y \implies f'(y)=-2y+20

So, the maximum is

f'(y)=0 \iff -2y+20=0 \iff 2y=20 \iff y=10

And since we know that x+y=20, we have x=10 as well.

This is actually a well known theorem: out of all the rectangles with given perimeter, the one with the greatest area is the square.
