Answer:
The dimensions are 50 and 100 square foot
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = length of fenced side parallel to the side that borders the playground
y = length of each of the other two fenced sides
Then, x + 2y = 200
<=> x = 200-2y
The Area = xy = y(200-2y)
The dimensions of the playground that will minimize the homeowner's total cost for materials when the area of the playground is maximum. He can cover more area but with the same cost.
The graph of the area function is a parabola opening downward.
The maximum area occurs when y = -200/[2(-2)] = 50
=> x = 100
So the dimensions are 50 and 100 square foot

Solution: f(18.5)=31.47
Step by step solution:
I started by making an equation in slope intercept form- I found the slope, 28/17, with the points (4, 17) and (12.5, 31). Then I found the y intercept, 1, with the point (4, 17). So the equation is y=28/17x+1. Then I just plugged 18.5 where the x is and solved for y
28/17(18.5)+1=y
28/17(37/2)+1=y
1036/34+1= y
30.47+1=y
y=31.47
Keep in mind that 1036/34 is not exactly 30.47 but that 30.47 was rounded to the nearest hundredth
Hope this helps :)
