Answer:

The largest rectangular space is 24m^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a 20m long wire fence, implies that the perimeter of the fence has been given, because Perimeter can be defined as the length of the boundary of a figure (in this case, a rectangle)

So, from the formula: Perimeter = 2 (L + B) = 20m^{2}

We have that L + B = 10m^{2}

The possible values of L and B are:

(L, B) = (9, 1), (8, 2), (7, 3) and (6, 4).

The areas of the rectangle that will be formed using these values are respectively; 9m^{2}, 16m^{2}, 21m^{2} and 24m^{2}, the largest area of which is the last which corresponds to the values (6, 4).

The largest rectangular space that the gardener can enclose is therefore 24m^{2}

Find the value of x if 7,x and 11 are in A.p.​
krok68 [10]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

since the terms are in AP then there is a common difference between consecutive terms, that is

a₂ - a₁ = a₃ - a₂ ( substitute values )

x - 7 = 11 - x ( add x to both sides )

2x - 7 = 11 ( add 7 to both sides )

2x = 18 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 9

I want to know the simple way to add fractions like I have a problem with getting the answer to 1/6+1/8=
Jobisdone [24]
You find the lowest common denominator of both fractions, which in this case is 24.
1/6 is equivalent to 4/24 and 1/8 is equivalent to 3/24. 
4/24 + 3/24 = 7/24

(03.01 LC) Given that h(x) = 3x −19, find the value of x that makes h(x) = 71. (5 points)
LekaFEV [45]
The function given is:
h(x) = 3x-19
we want to find the value of x that makes this function equal to 71. To do so, we will substitute h(x) with 71 and solve for x as follows:
h(x) = 3x - 19
71 = 3x - 19
3x = 71+19
3x = 90
x = 90/3 = 30
