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}

Use Cramers Rule to solve the system <br> 2x - 3y = 11<br> -6x + 8y = 34
Nastasia [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

given :

2x - 3y = 11

-6x + 8y = 34

find : the solutions of the system by using Cramers Rule.

solutions:

in the matrix 2x2 form =>

[ 2 -3] [x] [11]

=

[-6 8] [ y] [34]

D =

| 2 -3 |

|-6 8 |

= 8×2 - (-3) (-6)

= 16-18 = -2

Dx = | 11 -3 |

| 34 8 |

= 11×8 - (-3) (34)

= 88 + 102

= 190

Dy = | 2 11 |

|-6 34 |

= 2×34 - (-6) (11)

= 68 + 66

= 134

x = Dx/D = 190/-2 = -95

y = Dy/D = 134/-2 = -67

the solutions = {-95, -67}

Four streets enter a traffic circle at points A B C and D name six arcs formed by the streets.
lilavasa [31]
Arcs are just sections of the circle
so lets say you had a pizza

and you put some points on the crust, the legnth of the crust from point to point is that arc

example
if you put poins A and B, then arc AB is the crust between points A and B

arcs can include other points as well
 and arc AB=arc BA


so
I wil name easy arcs first
arc AB
arc BC
arc CD
ard DA

now ones that include others
arc AC
arc BD

so the arcs you might want to list are
 
arc AB
arc BC
arc CD
ard DA
arc AC
arc DB
