Well to get the area of 288 the dimensions would be a couple of things but 16 ft by 18 ft seems to work, so the dimensions increase by 4 ft on each side.
12+4=16
14+4=18
18*16=288
That is correct I think it is
Answer:
A. h(x)= -5.86x^2 + 23.37x + 34
Step-by-step explanation:
If the scientist uses the same amount of pesticide on the two farms then the x's of the functions are the same.
Then, the combined yield
of the two farms is just the yield of the first farm plus the yield of the second farm:
.
Now, since

and
,
then

we add the coefficients of the corresponding terms to get:


Which is choice A.

Answer: a = 23 ft.
Reasoning:
The question asks for the value of the leg a, given the tangent of the opposite angle and the length of the adjacent-leg, b.
The ratio that relates the three parameters is:
tan(A) = opposite-leg / adjacent-leg = a / b = a / 23 ft
Solve for a, wich is the unknown:
a = 23ft * tan(A) = 23ft * 1.0 = 23 ft
Answer: 23 ft.
