Answer:
First, we determine how many inches in the board. (5 x 12) + 3. This gives you 63 total inches. You want three equal pieces so you divide 63 by 3 and the answer is 21 inches for each individual piece.

Hello there!
To find the increasing intervals for this graph just based on the equation, we should find the turning points first.
Take the derivative of f(x)...
f(x)=-x²+3x+8
f'(x)=-2x+3
Set f'(x) equal to 0...
0=-2x+3
-3=-2x
3/2=x
This means that the x-value of our turning point is 3/2. Now we need to analyze the equation to figure out the end behavior of this graph as x approaches infinity and negative infinity.
Since the leading coefficient is -1, as x approaches ∞, f(x) approaches -∞ Because the exponent of the leading term is even, the end behavior of f(x) as x approaches -∞ is also -∞.
This means that the interval by which this parabola is increasing is...
(-∞,3/2)
PLEASE DON'T include 3/2 on the increasing interval because it's a turning point. The slope of the tangent line to the turning point is 0 so the graph isn't increasing OR decreasing at this point.
I really hope this helps!
Best wishes :)
