A rectangular enclosure is to be created using 82m rope.

Let
x-----> the length of rectangle
y-----> the width of rectangle

we know that 
perimeter of rectangle=2*[x+y]
perimeter of rectangle=82 m
82=2*[x+y]---> divide by 2 both sides---> 41=x+y--> y=41-x---> equation 1

Area of rectangle=x*y
substitute equation 1 in the area formula
Area=x*[41-x]----> 41x-x²

using a graph tool
see the attached figure

the vertex is the point (20.5,420.25)
that means
 for x=20.5 m ( length of rectangle)
the area is 420.25 m²

y=420.25/20.5----> 20.5 m

the dimensions are
20.5 m x 20.5 m------> is a square

the answer part 1) 
<span>the dimensions of the rectangular with Maximum area is a square with length side 20.5 meters
</span>
Part 2)<span>b) Suppose 41 barriers each 2m long, are used instead. Can the same area be enclosed?
</span>divide the length side of the square by 2
so
20.5/2=10.25--------> 10 barriers
the dimensions are 10 barriers x 10 barriers
10 barriers=10*2---> 20 m

the area enclosed with barriers is =20*20----> 400 m²

400 m² < 420.25 m²
so

the answer Part 2) is 
<span>the area enclosed by the barriers is less than the area enclosed by the rope
</span>
Part 3)<span>How much more area can be enclosed if the rope is used instead of the barriers
</span>
area using the rope=420.25 m²
area using the barriers=400 m²

420.25-400=20.25 m²

the answer part 3) is
20.25 m²

Can somebody please help me ( picture above )
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

D. A number of books and their cost that is not possible with either subscription.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you look at the 2 lines on the graph, you see that the blue line represents the first subscription which charges a 96 dollar annual fee, and the red line represents the other subscription which charges 3 dollars per book.

Every point along these lines shows a price that could possibly be paid and a number of books that could be bought. The point where these two lines meet is where the amount of books borrowed and the price for those books is the same for both subscriptions.

Because point S is not at this intersection, nor is it on either of these lines, it is not possible to pay that price for that amount of books with either subscription.

Identify the range of the function shown in the graph.​
Kitty [74]

Answer:           The answer is all real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because the line goes on infinitely and will pass through all of the numbers (negative, positive). Its not y \geq \\ 0 because it passes through 0 when the line goes through x (side to side) axis.

The height of a certain banner is equal to one third of its length. If the banner is 5 ft tall, write the equation that can be u
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

L=3h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let height of a banner be h, then we know that this is \frac{1}{3} of the length L of the banner; so we have

h=\frac{1}{3} L .

Now we can rearrange this equation to solve for the length of the banner given it's height:

L=3h

So there we have it!

If the banner is 5 ft tall, then it's length will be:

L=3*5=15ft
