The equation that describes the which gives the area of the pen, A, as a function of x, the length of fence parallel to the barn is A = 130x - x²

<h3>How to find area of a rectangle?</h3>

The pen is rectangular. Therefore,

area of a rectangle = lw

where

  • l = length
  • w = width

Therefore,

perimeter = 2w + l

perimeter = 2w + x

130 = 2w + x

130 - x = 2w

w = 65 - 1/ 2 x

A = xw

A = x(65 - 1/ 2 x)

A = 65x - 1 / 2 x²

Therefore, the function that represents A, the area of the pen is as follows:

A = 130x - x²

A family built a house and wanted to put down in their rectangular yard. The sod costs $0.32 per square foot plus 10 per square
sammy [17]

Answer:

The total cost of purchasing and laying sods in the rectangular yard is $2,146.67  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Dimensions of rectangular yard:

Length = 50 feet

Width = 30 feet

Area of rectangular yard =

A = \text{Length}\times \text{Width}\\A = 50\times 30\\A  = 1500\text{ square feet}

Cost of sod = $0.32 per square foot

Total cost of sod =

C_1 = \text{Unit cost of sod}\times \text{Area of yard}\\C_1 = 0.32\times 1500\\C_1 = 480\$

Cost of laying sods = $10 per square yard

Total cost of laying sod =

C_2 = \text{Unit cost of laying sod}\times \text{Area of yard}\\\\\text{1 square yard}=\dfrac{1}{9}\text{Square foot}\\\\C_2 = 10\times \dfrac{1500}{9}\\\\C_2 = 1666.67\$

Total cost of purchasing and laying the sod =

C = C_1 + C_2\\C = 480 +1666.67\\C = \$2,146.67

Thus, the total cost of purchasing and laying sods in the rectangular yard is $2,146.67

Acellus help slope intercept
Serjik [45]

Greetings.

The answer is y = 2x + 7.

Explanation:

If you are an expert in graph then you are able to find the slope without calculating. (Rise over Run by looking at the graph.)

We can also find the slope by calculating m-value.

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}   ---> Rise Over Run

<em>But how are we gonna calculate if we don't have any two given ordered pairs?</em>

The answer is, we can just pick two ordered pairs that are part of the graph, or rather say that the graph passes through.

The graph passes through (-3,1) and (-2,3).

Then we can calculate the slope by using rise/run.

m=\frac{3-1}{-2-(-3)}\\m=\frac{2}{-2+3}\\m=\frac{2}{1}\\m=2

Thus, the slope is m = 2.

However, we are not done yet. We just only found out the slope. We need to find the y-intercept too.

From Linear Function - y=mx+b

Where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

Since b = y-intercept, we don't need to calculate/substitute x = 0. We simply find which number the graph has y-intercept at.

Which is (0,7), the y-intercept.

Then we substitute b = 7 as y-intercept.

Thus the answer is y=2x+7
