Jacob wants to build a rectangular enclosure for his animals. One side of the pen will be against the barn,so he needs no fence on that side.
Let w be the width of the enclosure (perpendicular to the barn) and let l be the length of the enclosure (parallel to the barn).
one side of the length is not counted for perimeter because one side of length will be against the barn.
Perimeter = 400 ft
Perimeter of rectangle = L + W + W
400 = L + 2W
L = 400 - 2W
Area = L * W
Replace L by 400 - 2W
A(W) = (400 - 2W) * W

Now we find out x coordinate of vertex to find the width that maximize the area

a= -2 and b = 400

The width w would maximize the area is w = 100ft
To find maximum area we plug in 100 for W in A(W)


the maximum area is 20,000 square feet

This is a conditional probability, So what we're looking for is the probability of 2 gumballs being selected both being red. So let's pick the first gumball.
There is a total of 50+150+100+100 = 400 gumballs in the machine. Of them, 100 of the gumballs are red. So there's a 100/400 = 1/4 probability of the 1st gumball selected being red.
Now there's only 399 gumballs in the machine and the probability of selecting another red one is 99/399 = 33/133.
So the combined probability of both of the 1st 2 gumballs being red is
1/4 * 33/133 = 33/532, or about 0.062030075 = 6.2%</span>
Answer:
D. 5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
A. 5.4 can't be 'cause the shade did not reach 5 on number line.
B. 5 - 4 = 1 can'e be 'cause it pass 1.
C. 4 / 5 = 0.8 can't be 'cause its less than the shade.
D. 5 / 4 = 1.25 correct
If I'm correct and the ^ stands for multiplication then the answer should be 5.
The picture is my work just ignore the fraction.
