I think it’s -1 because with rise/run it goes down 2 and over 2 but the line is going down, so it’s negative.
Area is equal to length times width. The perimeter (the amount of rope) has to equal twice the length added to twice the width so we're left with:
A = l * w
200 = 2l + 2w
solve for either l or w
l = 100 - w
plug into the area equation to get one equation with two variables
A = w(100 - w)
A = -w^2 + 100w
take the derivative
A' = -2w + 100
set the derivative equal to zero
0 = -2w + 100
2w = 100
w = 50
This is the width that maximizes the area
with a width of 50, the length must also be 50 to have a perimeter of 200
therefore, they can rope up to 50 * 50 = 2500 ft^2
Answer:
21.89
Step-by-step explanation:
add and subtract
Answer:
0, 5, 10
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve the inequality to determine what values to select.
28 -7x ≤ -4(-7x -7) . . . . . . given
28 -7x ≤ 28x +28 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses*
-7x ≤ 28x . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 28 from both sides
0 ≤ 35x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 7x to both sides
0 ≤ x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 35
So, all values that are 0 or greater will make the inequality true:
0, 5, 10
_____
* Parentheses are eliminated using the distributive property. The factor outside parentheses multiplies each of the terms inside. Pay attention to signs.
-4(-7x -7) = (-4)(-7x) +(-4)(-7) = 28x +28
