Answer: 700.56

Step-by-step explanation:

A heptagon has 7 sides, therfore a regular heptagon will have 7 equal sides

n = 7 (number of sides)

s = 13.9 (length of each sides of the heptagon)

r = 14.4 (The apothem)

The area of the regular heptagon can be calculated by:

Area = ½ n × s × r

Area = ½ × 7 × 13.9 × 14.4

Area = 700.56 square units

jenna's rectangular garden borders a wall. she buys 80 ft of fencing. what are the dimensions of the garden that will maximize i

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The dimensions are x =20 and y=20 of the garden that will maximize its area is 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:-

let 'x' be the length and the 'y' be the width of the rectangle

given Jenna's buys 80ft of fencing of rectangle so the perimeter of the rectangle is 2(x +y) = 80

x + y =40

y = 40 -x

now the area of the rectangle A = length X width

A = x y

substitute 'y' value in above A = x (40 - x)

A = 40 x - x^2 .....(1)

Step :2

now differentiating equation (1) with respective to 'x'

$\frac{dA}{dx} = 40 -2x$ ........(2)

Find the dimensions

$\frac{dA}{dx} = 0$

40 - 2x =0

40 = 2x

x = 20

and y = 40 - x = 40 -20 =20

The dimensions are x =20 and y=20

length = 20 and breadth = 20

Step 3:-

we have to find maximum area

Again differentiating equation (2) with respective to 'x' we get

$\frac{d^2A}{dx^2} = -2$

Now the maximum area A = x y at x =20 and y=20

A = 20 X 20 = 400

Conclusion:-

The dimensions are x =20 and y=20 of the garden that will maximize its area is 400

verification:-

The perimeter = 2(x +y) =80

2(20 +20) =80

2(40) =80

80 =80

If Ryuk eats 7 apples for every 50 names Light writes in the death note, how many apples will he have eaten after Light writes 5

alex41 [277]

Answer:

70 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a ratio to solve

7 apples x apples

-------------- = -------------

50 name 500 names

Using cross products

7 * 500 = 50x

Divide by 50

7 * 500/50 = 50x/50

70 =x

Determine whether abc ----> jgh is a reflection, translation, rotation, or glide reflection.

Usimov [2.4K]

From this picture you can calculate coordinates of triangles' vertices:
$A(-9,0),\ B(-6,-4),\ C(-3,0),\ J(8,0),\ G(5,4),\ H(2,0)$ .

Since

$\frac{-9+8}{2} = \frac{-6+5}{2}= \frac{-3+2}{2}=- \frac{1}{2}$ $\frac{0+0}{2}= \frac{-4+4}{2} = \frac{0+0}{2} =0$

you can conclude that points A, B, C are rotated by $180^0$ about the point (-0.5,0) to form points J, G, H, respectively.

Answer: A is correct choice.
