N and d are both numbers of thousands of dollars.
Thus, if n = 1, that means $1000.

Here n = d + 0.4.
Note that in C, n+0.04=n is completely wrong.
Similarly, in D, d = 0.04 = n is completely wrong.
The "combined profit amount" for Nov. and Dec. is n + d = 3.15.

Only A matches this info.  Your answer is A.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

length = 200 m

width = 400 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the plaing area is L and the width of the playing area is W.

Length of fencing around three sides = 2 L + W = 800

W = 800 - 2L ..... (1)

Let A is the area of playing area

A = L x W

A = L (800 - 2L)

A = 800 L - 2L²

Differentiate with respect to L.

dA/dL = 800 - 4 L

It is equal to zero for maxima and minima

800 - 4 L = 0

L = 200 m

W = 800 - 2 x 200 = 400 m

So, the area is maximum if the length is 200 m and the width is 400 m.

Elle decreased her monthly budget from $250 to $200. Calculate the percent decrease
kirill [66]
Formula for finding percent change (increase or decrease) is amount of the change divided by the original amount.

Here, the amount of the change is 50 and the original amount is 250.

50/250= 0.2

Multiply by 100 to get percent.

20% decrease (because budget went down)
