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

After losing your job, and needing cash fast, you decide to try
ra1l [238]

Given:

The principal = $ 4000

The rate of interest = 22 %

To find the loan amount a) after 1 year and b) after 3 years.

Formula

Loan amount is

A = P(1+\frac{r}{100} )^{t}

where,

A be the loan amount

P be the principal

r be the rate of interest and

t be the time.

Now,

a) Taking, P = 4000, r = 22, t = 1 we get,

A = 4000 (1+\frac{22}{100} )^{1}

or, A = 4880

Again,

b) Taking, P = 4000, r = 22 and t = 4 w eget,

A = 4000(1+\frac{22}{100})^{4}

or, A = 7263.39

Hence,

a) The amount of loan after 1 year is $ 4880

and b) The amount of loan after 4 year is $ 7263.39.
