Answer:
1250 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y denote the sides of the rectangular research plot.
Thus, area is;
A = xy
Now, we are told that end of the plot already has an erected wall. This means we are left with 3 sides to work with.
Thus, if y is the erected wall, and we are using 100m wire for the remaining sides, it means;
2x + y = 100
Thus, y = 100 - 2x
Since A = xy
We have; A = x(100 - 2x)
A = 100x - 2x²
At maximum area, dA/dx = 0.thus;
dA/dx = 100 - 4x
-4x + 100 = 0
4x = 100
x = 100/4
x = 25
Let's confirm if it is maximum from d²A/dx²
d²A/dx² = -4. This is less than 0 and thus it's maximum.
Let's plug in 25 for x in the area equation;
A_max = 25(100 - 2(25))
A_max = 1250 m²
Answer:
$4.72
Step-by-step explanation:
16.79+28.49=45.28
50-45.28=4.72
Answers:
- C) x = plus/minus 11
- B) No real solutions
- C) Two solutions
- A) One solution
- The value <u> 18 </u> goes in the first blank. The value <u> 17 </u> goes in the second blank.
========================================================
Explanations:
- Note how (11)^2 = (11)*(11) = 121 and also (-11)^2 = (-11)*(-11) = 121. The two negatives multiply to a positive. So that's why the solution is x = plus/minus 11. The plus minus breaks down into the two equations x = 11 or x = -11.
- There are no real solutions here because the left hand side can never be negative, no matter what real number you pick for x. As mentioned in problem 1, squaring -11 leads to a positive number 121. The same idea applies here as well.
- The two solutions are x = 0 and x = -2. We set each factor equal to zero through the zero product property. Then we solve each equation for x. The x+2 = 0 leads to x = -2.
- We use the zero product property here as well. We have a repeated factor, so we're only solving one equation and that is x-3 = 0 which leads to x = 3. The only root is x = 3.
- Apply the FOIL rule on (x+1)(x+17) to end up with x^2+17x+1x+17 which simplifies fully to x^2+18x+17. The middle x coefficient is 18, while the constant term is 17.
