Maximum area given perimeter is that of a square.

A square has four equal sides so you would have to divide 160 by 4 to get the length of each side.

160÷4=40

Now to find the area you use the formula A=lw.

A=40x40
A=1600

Therefore the maximum area of a rectangular region if you have 160 yards of fencing is 1600 yards²

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.

scoundrel [369]

Answer: y = 21x

Step-by-step explanation:

y in this expression represents the total amount of money, in dollars, the students raise from selling x flowerpots.

21 is the price of each flower pot.

x is the number of flower pots sold.

If for instance, they sold 30 flower pots, y(total amount in dollars) would be;

= 21x

= 21 * 30

= $630

Use the image below to answer the following question. Find the value of sin x° and cos y°. What relationship do the ratios of si

Inessa [10]

Using relations in a right triangle, it is found that:

$\sin{x} = \frac{6}{10} = 0.6$

$\cos{y} = \frac{6}{10} = 0.6$

Since x and y are complementary angles, we have that sin(xº) = cos(yº).

<h3>What are the relations in a right triangle?</h3>

The relations in a right triangle are given as follows:

The sine of an angle is given by the length of the opposite side to the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse.

The cosine of an angle is given by the length of the adjacent side to the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse.

The tangent of an angle is given by the length of the opposite side to the angle divided by the length of the adjacent side to the angle.

The hypotenuse in this problem is given as follows:

$h^2 = 6^2 + 8^2$

$h = \sqrt{100}$

h = 10.

The sine of x is:

$\sin{x} = \frac{6}{10} = 0.6$

The cosine of y is:

$\cos{y} = \frac{6}{10} = 0.6$

Since x and y are complementary angles, we have that sin(xº) = cos(yº).
