A rectangular field on a farm is to be fenced in using the wall of the barn for one side and 200 meters of fencing for the other

three sides. The area A(x) in square meters of the field is a function of the length x in meters of each of the sides perpendicular to the barn wall

Answer:

Rectangular area as a function of x :   A(x)  = 200*x  + 2*x²

A(max) = 5000 m²

Dimensions:

x = 50 m

l  = 100 m

Step-by-step explanation:

"x" is the length of the perpendicular side to the wall of the rectangular area to be fenced, and we call "l" the other side (parallel to the wall of the barn) then:

A(r) = x* l     and the perimeter of the rectangular shape is

P = 2*x + 2*l   but we won´t use any fencing material along the wll of the barn therefore

P  =  2*x + l       ⇒   200 = 2*x  + l      ⇒   l  = 200 - 2*x      (1)

And the rectangular area as a function of x is:

A(x)  = x * ( 200 - 2*x)  ⇒  A(x)  = 200*x  + 2*x²

Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation we get:

A´(x)  =  200 - 4*x     ⇒   A´= 0

Then    200 - 4*x  = 0     ⇒   4*x =  200   ⇒  x  = 50 m

We find the l value, plugging the value of x in equation (1)

l  = 200 - 2*x     ⇒ l = 200 - 2*50   ⇒  l = 100  m

A(max)  =  100*50

A(max)  = 5000 m²

Solve the equation for y<br><br><br> 4x+7y=28 <br><br> y=
bogdanovich [222]
Let's solve for y.

4x+7y=28

Add -4x to both sides.

4x+7y+−4x=28+−4x

7y=−4x+28

Divide both sides by 7.

7y/7=−4x+28/7

y=−4/7x+4

Given in the question that,

number of pink beans = 87

number of purple beans = 74

number of white beans = 35

number of black beans = 70

number of orange beans = 25

number of green beans = 47

<h3>Step 1</h3>

if two beans selected are different

6 C 2

(6 colours of beans)

<h3>Step 2</h3>

if two beans selected are same

6 C 1 = 6

(6 colours of beans)

<h3>Step 3 </h3>

total sample space will be

6 C 2 + 6
