One other way to solve this question is finding the derivative

h=-2x^2+12x-10

h'=-4x+12

now we have to find when this function will be zero

-4x+12=0

\boxed{\boxed{x=3}}

now we just replace this value at our initial function

h=-2x^2+12x-10

h_{max}=-2*(3)^2+12*3-10

h_{max}=-18+36-10

\boxed{\boxed{h_{max}=8}}

The maximum height is the ordinate value of the vertex of the parabola, ie: yV

Calculating yV:

y_V=\frac{-\Delta}{4a}\\
\\
y_V=-[\frac{12^2-4*(-2)*(-10)]}{4*(-2)}=\frac{-(144-80)}{-8}=\frac{-64}{-8}=8

A landscaper wants to create a 12-foot-long diagonal path through a rectangular garden. The width of the garden is x feet and th
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Width of the rectangle =  6.7 ft

length of the rectangle = 10.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

ABCD is the rectangle.

AB = length of the rectangle = 4 + x ft

BC = width of the rectangle = x ft

AC = Diagonal of the rectangular field = 12 ft

Since ΔABC is the Right angle triangle. So

AC^{2} = AB^{2} + BC^{2}

12^{2} = (4 + x)^{2} + x^{2}

144 = x^{2} + 16 + x^{2} + 8 x

144 = 2x^{2} + 8x + 16

x^{2} + 4x -72 = 0

By solving above equation we get

x = 6.7 ft

Thus is the width of the rectangle.

And length of the rectangle = 4 + x

⇒ 4 + 6.7

⇒ 10.7 ft
