If the slope is 9 inches per foot (run), then the roof is 15" per foot run. I suppose rake factor is the ratio of roof length to rise, which works out to 1.25 in this case. The roof area (for one sloping face) is therefore (15"/9")*10'*30' long = 500 sq....
Math - correction
Correction in an intermediate step (only): ... =M((1+i)^n-1)/(1+i-1) =M((1+i)^n-1)/i

Use the compound interest formula: P=$3690 i=0.21/12=0.0175 n=17 M=amount of monthly payment Amount after 17 months (without payment) = A(1+i)^n Value of his payments at the same interest rate =M+M(1+i)+M(1+i)^2+...+M(1+i)^(n-1) =M((1+i)^n-1)/(1+i-1) =M(1+i)^n/i Equate the two...
Critical Points
Inflection point at (2,3) means f"(2)=0 => f"(x)=6x+2a = 0 at x=2, or a=-6(2)/2=-6 Since f(2)=3 (from given point (2,3) ), we conclude that: f(2)=c+2b-16=3 or 2b+c=19 ....(1) We also know that there is a critical point at (1,5), so f'(1)=0, or b=9 Substituting...
Minimum on a Closed Interval
Note: -3/2 is not in [1,2], so it cannot be the correction solution.
Minimum on a Closed Interval
On a closer look, the first equation f(x)=1/(x sin(πx)) is undefined at x=1 and x=2, so probably not what you want. For equation 2, f(x)=(1/x) sin(πx) you would find f'(x)= (%pi*cos(πx))/x - sin(πx)/x^2 equate f'(x) to zero to find the minimum, and solv...
Minimum on a Closed Interval
Is the function f(x)=1/(x sin(πx)) or f(x)=(1/x) sin(πx) [ as written ]?
Geometry
If centre has (6,8) and one end of the diameter has (4,2), add Δx and Δy to the centre to get the other end of the diameter, namely, (Δx,Δy) = (6-4, 8-2) = (2,6) So the other end of the diameter would be (6+2,8+6)=(8,14). Check: the mid-point of the dia...

It could be a rectangle (or any other shape). Use L and W to represent the length and width. Use the area and perimeter formula to construct 2 equations and consequently solve for L and W. The solution consists of integers.
