Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

if you convert them all to have the same denominator you find that 3/4 has the biggest numerator.

2/3 = 16/24

1/8 = 3/24

3/4 = 18/24 ← has the greatest numerator so it's the greatest

You are designing a rectangular garden. the garden will be enclosed by fencing on three sides and by a house on the fourth side.

RUDIKE [14]

Suppose the dimensions of the rectangle is x by y and let the side enclosed by a house be one of the sides measuring x, then the sides that is to be enclosed are two sides measuring y and one side measuring x.

Thus, the length of fencing needed is given by

P = x + 2y

The area of the rectangle is given by xy,

i.e.

$xy = 288 \\ \\ \\ \\ \Rightarrow y= \frac{288}{x}$

Substituting for y into the equation for the length of fencing needed, we have

$P=x+2\left( \frac{288}{x} \right)=x+ \frac{576}{x}$

For the amount of fencing to be minimum, then

$\frac{dP}{dx} =0 \\ \\ \Rightarrow1- \frac{576}{x^2} =0 \\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{576}{x^2} =1 \\ \\ \Rightarrow x^2=576 \\ \\ \Rightarrow x=\sqrt{576}=24$

Now, recall that

$y= \frac{288}{x} = \frac{288}{24} =12$

Thus, the length of fencing needed is given by

P = x + 2y = 24 + 2(12) = 24 + 24 = 48.

Therefore, 48 feets of fencing is needed to enclose the garden.

Allison’s dog is 6 pounds more than 5 times the weight of Gail’s dog. What algebraic expression could you make to find (g) which

emmasim [6.3K]

Given that Allison’s dog is 6 pounds more than 5 times the weight of Gail’s dog, it is important to know the following:

1. The word "more" indicates an Addition.

2. The word "times" indicates Multiplication.

Knowing this, you can write the following expression to represent "5 times the weight of Gail’s dog", where "g" is the weight of Gail’s dog:

$5g$

Therefore, you can determine that the weight of Allison's dog (in pounds) is the sum of 6 pounds and 5 times the weight of Gail's dog (in pounds). Then, you can represent this with this algebraic expression:

$5g+6$

Hence, the answer is:

$5g+6$

What kind of triangle is 15,15,5

Answer:

isosceles triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle is a triangle with (at least) two equal sides. In the figure above, the two equal sides have length and the remaining side has length. . This property is equivalent to two angles of the triangle being equal. An isosceles triangle therefore has both two equal sides and two equal angles.
