Answer:

Therefore the width is 25 feet for getting maximum area.

The maximum area of the rectangle is 625 square feet.

Therefore the range is 0≤A≤625.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is

A = - x²+50x

We know that ,

If y = ax²+bx+c

For the maximum x=-\frac{b}{2a}

Here a = -1 , b= 50 and c=0

Therefore the width x= -\frac{50}{2.(-1)} = 25

Therefore the width is 25 feet for getting maximum area.

The maximum area =[ -(25)²+50.25] square feet

                                 = 625 square feet

The area can not be negative and maximum area is 625 square feet.

Therefore the range is 0≤A≤625.

How can i determine the unit rate from a graph?
artcher [175]

Unit rate (rise over run) can be determined from a graph by the amount a straight line goes up and across on a graph. The number the line rises on the graph (each point on the axes it crosses) goes over the the amount it goes across on the graph in fractional form.

The length of a rectangle is 4 centimeters more than twice its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 86 centimeters , find
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
P = perimeter = 2L + 2W = 86 cm.  Also, L = W + 4.  Subst. W + 4 for L, 

P = 2(W + 4) + 2W = 86 cm.  Then 2W + 8 + 2W = 86 cm, and 4W = 78 cm.

Finally solving for W, W = (78 cm)/4, or 19.5 cm.

If W = 19.5 cm, then L = W + 4 cm = 19.5 cm + 4 cm = 23.5 cm

The rectangle's dimensions are 19.5 cm by 23.5 cm.
