Answer:
The equation of the function: y = mx + b
- m = slope = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = [5 - (-3)]/(4 - 0) = (5 + 3)/4 = 8/4 = 2
- b = y-intercept = -3
Therefore, the equation is <u>f(x) = 2x - 3</u>
When x = 0, f(x) = 2(0) - 3 = <u>-3</u>
When x increases by 1, f(x) increases by <u>2</u> (slope = the rate of change)
Answer:
781250
Step-by-step explanation:
Let y is the length of the farm field
Let x is the width of the farm field
Given that, no fencing is necessary along the rock wall, so we can find the perimeter of the farm is:
2x + y = 2500 feet
<=> y = 2500 -2x
The are of the farm has the following formula:
A = x*y
<=> A = x(2500 - 2x)
<=> A = 2500x -2
To have the maximum area of field in square feet, we need to use differentials to estimate:
= 2500 - 4x
Set
= 0, we have:
2500 - 4x = 0
<=> x = 625 feet.
=> y = 2500 - 2*625 = 1250 feet
So the maximum area of field is:
A = x*y = 625*1250 = 781250
