Answer:

781250 ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y is the length of the farm field

Let x is the width of the farm field

Given that, no fencing is necessary along the rock wall, so we can find the perimeter of the farm is:

2x + y = 2500 feet

<=> y = 2500 -2x

The are of the farm has the following formula:

A = x*y

<=> A = x(2500 - 2x)

<=> A = 2500x -2x^{2}

To have  the maximum area of field in square feet, we need to use differentials to estimate:

\frac{dA}{dx} = 2500 - 4x

Set \frac{dA}{dx} = 0, we have:

2500 - 4x  = 0

<=> x = 625 feet.

=> y = 2500 - 2*625 = 1250 feet

So the maximum area of field is:

A = x*y = 625*1250 = 781250 ft^{2}

HELP!! For a right square pyramid, which shape could not be a cross section?
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

D. Rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

If you cut the pyramid with a plane parallel to the base, a square is obtained. If the plane is perpendicular to the base, you can obtain two different figures; if the plane passes through the vertex, a triangle is obtained, but if it doesn't pass through the vertex, a trapezoid is obtained.
