Suppose that the maximum weight that a certain type of rectangular beam can support varies inversely as it’s length and jointly as its width and the square of its height. Suppose also that a beam 5 inches wide, 2 inches high and 10 feet long can support a maximum weight of 8 tons. What is the maximum weight that could be supported by a beam that is 6 inches wide, 2 inches high, and 24 feet long

Way: W = k * w  * h^2/ L

to determine the unit cost your would divide the total cost by the number sold.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that harry needs 2 square meters of fabric for every 6 wizard cloaks he makes.

1. first of all we will find how many cloaks can be made from 1 square meter of fabric by dividing 6 by 2.

we can see that 3 cloaks can be made from 1 square meter of fabric. now we will multiply 3 by 7 to find number of cloaks made from 7 square meters of fabric.

therefore, harry will make 21 cloaks from 7 square meters of fabric.

2. let us find how many square meters of fabric will be needed to make 4 cloaks.

first of all we will find fabric needed for 1 cloak by dividing 2 by 6.

we can see that fabric needed for 1 cloak is   square meter. now we will multiply   by 4 to find fabric needed for 4 cloaks.
