Hello there!

y² + 6y + 5 = 0
Let's factor this equation.

(y+1)(y+5) = 0

y + 1 = 0 y + 5 = 0
y = -1 y = -5

So your answers are...
y = -1 , y = -5

A rectangular plot of farmland will be bounded on one side by a river and on the other three sides by a single-strand electric

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

525 x 1,050

A = 551,250 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'L' be the length parallel to the river and 'S' be the length of each of the other two sides.

The length of the three sides is given by:

$2S+L=2,100\\ L=2100-2S$

The area of the rectangular plot is given by:

$A=S*L\\A=S(2100-2S)\\A=2100 S -2S^2$

The value of 'S' for which the area's derivate is zero, yields the maximum total area:

$\frac{dA(S)}{dS}=\frac{d(2100 S -2S^2)}{dS}\\0= 2100 - 4S\\S=525$

Solving for 'L':

$L=2100-(2*525)\\L=1,050$

The largest area enclosed is given by dimension of 525 m x 1,050 and is:

$A = 525*1,025\\A=551,250\ m^2$

What is 2x-5/3=7?<br><br> Plz help!

ki77a [65]

Hello! And thank you for your question!

First add 5/3 to both sides:

2x = 7 + 5/3

Then simplify 7 + 5/3:

2x = 26/3

Then divide both sides by 2:

x = 26/3 over 2

After that simplify 26/3/2:

x = 26 over 3 x 2

Simplify 3 x 2:

x = 26/6

Simplify:

x = 13/3 or 4 1/3

Final Answer:

x = 13/3 or 4 1/3
