Answer:

Alexis will wash 14 windows in 1 hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question.

Number of windows washed = $10\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}$

Time taken to wash the windows = $\displaystyle\frac{3}{4} \text{ hours}$

We have to find:

Number of windows washed in 1 hour=

Formula:

$\text{Windows washed in 1 hour} = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Total windows washed}}{\text{Time taken to wash windows}}=\frac{10\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}}\\\\=\frac{21\times 4}{3\times 2} = 14$

Thus, Alexis will wash 14 windows in 1 hour.

A town is planning a playground. It wants to fence in a rectangular space using an existing wall. What is the greatest area it c

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

1250 $ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the playground is fenced on three sides of the playground and the four side has an existing wall.

Let the length of the rectangle be 'X' feet and width be 'Y' feet.

As the fencing is done using 100 feet of fence. We get the relation between the sides and the fence as, X + 2Y = 100.

As, X + 2Y = 100 → X = 100 - 2Y

Now, the area of the rectangle = XY = X × ( 100 - 2Y ).

i.e Area of the rectangle = $-2Y^{2} +100Y$ .

The general form of a quadratic equation is $y=ax^{2}+bx+c$ .

The maximum value of a quadratic equation is given by $x=\frac{-b}{2a}$ .

Therefore, the greatest value of $-2Y^{2} +100Y$ is at Y = $\frac{-100}{2 \times -2}$ = $\frac{-100}{-4}$ = 25.

Thus, Y = 25 and X = 100 - 2Y → X = 100 - 2 × 25 → X = 50.

Hence, the area of the rectangle is XY = 50 × 25 = 1250 $ft^{2}$ .
