Xy = 940 

<span>and </span>

<span>Cost = 5(2x) + 5y + 10y (I chose y to be the side with brick). The cost equation simplifies to: </span>

<span>C = 10x + 15y </span>

<span>Replace y in the cost equation with 940/x: </span>

<span>C = 10x + 15(940/x) </span>

<span>C = 10x + 14100/x <---this is the equation you need to minimize. </span>

<span>C' = 10 - 14100/x^2 </span>

<span>10 - 14100/x^2 = 0 </span>

<span>14100/x^2 = 10 </span>

<span>x^2 = 14100/10 = 1410 </span>

<span>x = sqrt(1410) = 37.55 </span>

<span>y = 25.03 <---this is the length of the brick fence.</span>

A football is thrown from the stadium. The height of this football can be represented by the polynomial -16t2 +32t + 20, where t
olasank [31]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

related equation

-16t^2 + 32t + 20 = 0

-4t^2 + 8t + 5 = 0

Δ/4 = 16 + 20 = 36

t1 = (-4 + 6)/-4 = -1/2

t2 = (-4 - 6)/-4 = 5/2

-16(t+1/2)(t-5/2)

-16(2t+1/2)(2t-5/2)

-4(2t+1)(2t-5)
