14.62 super simple, good luck with any other questions!

As the other user mentioned the answer is 14.62

To reach this answer, I would prefer to use the column method (aka stacking method):

To make it more clear, it would be easier to place a zero where there is no number, so:

23.40
- 08.78
-------------
14.62
-------------

A school wishes to enclose its rectangular playground using 480 meters of fencing.

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Part a) $A(x)=(-x^2+240x)\ m^2$

Part b) The side length x that give the maximum area is 120 meters

Part c) The maximum area is 14,400 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

Part a) Find a function that gives the area A(x) of the playground (in square meters) in terms of x

we know that

The perimeter of the rectangular playground is given by

$P=2(L+W)$

we have

$P=480\ m\\L=x\ m$

substitute

$480=2(x+W)$

solve for W

$240=x+W\\W=(240-x)\ m$

Find the area of the rectangular playground

The area is given by

$A=LW$

we have

$L=x\ m\\W=(240-x)\ m$

substitute

$A=x(240-x)\\A=-x^2+240x$

Convert to function notation

$A(x)=(-x^2+240x)\ m^2$

Part b) What side length x gives the maximum area that the playground can have?

we have

$A(x)=-x^2+240x$

This function represent a vertical parabola open downward (the leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex represent a maximum

The x-coordinate of the vertex represent the length that give the maximum area that the playground can have

Convert the quadratic equation into vertex form

$A(x)=-x^2+240x$

Factor -1

$A(x)=-(x^2-240x)$

Complete the square

$A(x)=-(x^2-240x+120^2)+120^2$

$A(x)=-(x^2-240x+14,400)+14,400$

$A(x)=-(x-120)^2+14,400$

The vertex is the point (120,14,400)

therefore

The side length x that give the maximum area is 120 meters

Part c) What is the maximum area that the playground can have?

we know that

The y-coordinate of the vertex represent the maximum area

The vertex is the point (120,14,400) -----> see part b)

therefore

The maximum area is 14,400 square meters

Verify

$x=120\ m$

$W=(240-120)=120\ m$

The playground is a square

$A=120^2=14,400\ m^2$

Maggie drew triangle and then triangle . Triangle is congruent to triangle only if ∠ is equal to what value?

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Angle ABE = 58

Step-by-step explanation:

This would fulfill the AAA theorem, or 3 angles needing to be congruent. We got 58 by subtracting 89 and 62 from 180, then multiplying that answer by 2 (because it occupies both triangles).

Answer:

Number of students who scored atleast 1700 but less Than 2100 = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

1,450 1,620 1,800 1,740 1,650 1,800 2,010 1,780 1,840 1,490 1,620 1,480 2,390 1,640 1,830 1,710 1,900 1,910 1,950 1,820 1,590 2,350 2,260 1,870 1,530 1,950 2,000 1,830 1,980 2,100

Class interval __ Frequency

1400 - 1599 ____ 5

1600 - 1799 ____ 7

1800 - 1999 ____12

2000 - 2199 ___ 3
