General Idea:
To find the Greatest Common Factor of binomial, we need to write each term as product of prime factors. GCF by definition means the product of common prime factors involved with its lowest terms. It is a number which will go in to both the terms in a binomial.
Given :
Applying the concept :
In order to get the expression inside the parenthesis after factoring GCF 5, we need to divide each term by what we factor out as shown below:
I can’t answer anything from my side so I will guide you the best I can! Measure the highlighted lines on the image. Then record the numbers into the correct areas(length,width,height). Then multiply all of the numbers above. That’s how you answer question 3. I’m sorry that I can’t do much more on my side.
The figures on the top left and the bottom right have rotational symmetry.
You basically add 17.50+17.50=35 and add 35+35=70, reason being is because the 35 is the 1/2 and 17.50 is the 1/4 so 70 is your answer
Answer:
- 12 ft parallel to the river
- 6 ft perpendicular to the river
Step-by-step explanation:
The least fence is used when half the total fence is parallel to the river. That is, the shape of the rectangle is twice as long as it is wide.
72 = W(2W)
36 = W²
6 = W . . . . . . the width perpendicular to the river
12 = 2W . . . . the length parallel to the river
_____
<em>Development of this relation</em>
Let T represent the total length of the fence for some area A. Then if x is the length along the river, the width is y=(T-x)/2, and the area is ...
A = xy = x(T -x)/2
Note that the equation for area is that of a parabola with zeros at x=0 and at x=T. That is, for some fence length T, the area will be a maximum at the vertex of this parabola. That vertex is located halfway between the zeros, at ...
x = (0 +T)/2 = T/2
The corresponding area width (y) is ...
y = (T -T/2)/2 = T/4
Equivalently, the fence length T will be a minimum for some area A when x=T/2 and y=T/4. This is the result we used above.
