If . he will use the wall of the garage as one side of the pen and will construct the rest of the rectangular pen from 28 yards of fencing. The maximum area that can be achieved for the dog pen is: 392 yards².

<h3>Maximum area </h3>

Let x represent the  width of the fence

Let the two widths represent  2x

Let the  length of one side represent 28-x

Let A represent Area

Hence,

A=x(28-x)

=-x²+28x

Using calculus or vertex = -b/2a,

x value = -28/-2

x = 14

2x = 28

So,

Maximum area= 14 ×28

Maximum area = 392 yards²

Therefore the maximum area is 392 yards².

Suppose that f : [a, b] → [a, b] is continuous. Prove that f has a fixed point. That is, prove that there exists c ∈ [a, b] such
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

define the function:

g(x) = f(x) -x

As both f(x) and x are continuous functions, g(x) will also be continuous.

Now, what can we say about g(a) = f(a) -a?

we know that a\leq f(a) \leq b, thus:

a-a\leq f(a)-a \leq b-a\\0 \leq g(a) \leq b-a

thus  g(a) is non-negative.

What about g(b) ? Again we have:

a\leq f(b) \leq b\\a-b \leq f(b) -b \leq  0\\a-b \leq g(b) \leq  0

That means that g(b) is not positive.

Now, we can imagine two cases, either one of g(a) or g(b) is equal to zero, or none of them is. If either of them is equal to zero, we have found a fixed point! In fact, any point c for which g(c)=0 is a fixed point, because:

g(c) = 0 \implies f(c) -c = 0 \implies f(c) = c

Now, if g(a) \neq  0 and g(b) \neq 0, then we have that

g(a) >0 and g(b) < 0. And by Bolzano's theorem we can assert that there must exist a point c between a and b for which g(c)=0. And as we have shown before that point would be a fixed point. This completes the proof.

Graph: y - 3 = 1/2 (x + 2)
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Slope: \frac{1}{2}

Y-intercept: (0,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the equation into y = mx + b form, which is y = \frac{1}{2} +4. Then create a table.

X: -2, -1, 0, 1, 2

Y: 3, \frac{7}{2}, 4, \frac{9}{2}, 5
