There are 2 short sides x and 1 long side y.
x+x+y=1,800
2x+y=1,800
y=1,800-2x
The area of the rectangle is A=x(1,800-x).
A is a function with variable x. Moreover it is a quadratic (second degree) function.
The graph of the function is a parabola which opens downwards, because the signs of the leading coefficients of the factors, multiply to minus:
(x)(-x)=-x^2.
This means that the highest point of the parabola, is its vertex V(h,k), so the function takes its largest value for x=h.
The roots of A=x(1,800-x) are x=0 and x=1,800, thus the x coordinate of the vertex, must be the midpoint of 0 and 1,800, that is 900.
Answer:
A=x(1,800-x)
largest area is when x=900
Answer:
i think it's $23.96
Step-by-step explanation:
i used calculator
divided $17.97 ÷ 3 to get $5.99
and multiplied $5.99 × 4 to get the possible answer ($23.96)
Answer:
If the dimension increased by doubled, tripled or quadrupled, then it will be 2x, 3x, or 4x for each dimension.
Answer:
If we assume that everyone in the group is an owner, we would have
legs.
legs
Therefore, we need 24 more legs.
These 24 additional legs can be made from the difference of legs between the owners and dogs.
In this case, dogs have 
more legs than an owner.
24 ÷ 2 = 12.
There are 12 dogs in the group.
