It would be 48 girls. 42 divided by 7 equals 6 so then you just times 6 by 8 to figure out how many girls there will be.

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

What is the area of a regular nonagon (9 sides) with side length of 15 cm and apothem of 20.6 cm? Round the answer to the neares
Triss [41]
We know that

<span>The nine radii of a regular Nonagon divides into 9 congruent isosceles triangles
</span>therefore
[the area of <span>a regular nonagon]=9*[area of isosceles triangle]

</span>[area of isosceles triangle]=b*h/2------> 15*20.6/2----> 154.5 cm²
so
[the area of a regular nonagon]=9*[154.5]------> 1390.5 cm²

the answer is
1390.5 cm²
