The maximum area of a rectangle when given perimeter is simply perimeter/sides.
To get the maximum area, simply divide 160 (perimeter) by 4 (sides in a rectangle) and then square the result:
160/4 = 40
40 x 40 = 1600
The maximum area, when the sides are all of the same length, is <u><em>1600 square yards.

In the linear equation y = mx + b, y-intercept represents the value of y. It is the point where the line crosses the y-axis(vertical axis)
Finding the y-intercept is done by looking at which point in the graph crosses the y-axis. This point will always have an x-coordinate of zero(0).
-3 on a number line would look like 3 right from 0.
Let's just say we have a number line. A number line is a line that represents numbers. I'll say the positive side is on the top/left and the negative side (-3) on the bottom/right. -3 is a negative number. There is the sign (-) before 3. That indicates it's a negative number. Since it's a negative and 3, we move 3 down or right.
Answer:
14.95
Step-by-step explanation:
every 1 pound is 2.99 so you would do 2.99 * 5
If you are allowed to use a calculator then you only need to press the buttons.
Assuming you cannot use a calculator you need to use approximation techniques. First let us begin by finding the two closest numbers that are perfect squares. In this case 11^2 and 12^2 are the closest square numbers to 129.
11^2 = 121
12^2 = 144
We can already tell that the square root of 129 is closer to 11 than to 12.
Now we need to get even closer.
If you try squaring a number like 11.5 then you can get even closer to 129. When you square 11.5 you get 132.25. Already you can tell that the square root of 129 is close to the square root of 132.25 or 11.5
Now we can get even closer square the number 11.25 and keep on going until one of these numbers when squared is almost or exactly 129. I hope I helped, there really isn't a great way to do this without a calculator, or by using the graph of y=x^2
