Answer:

375000 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the statement that we have that it would be 1 time the length and 2 times the width because one side is not necessary and also we must take into account that it would be divided by 3 equal enclosures therefore we will use 1000 feet (3000/3) so Therefore, the perimeter would be equal to:

1000 = l + 2 * w

we solve for w:

l = 1000 - 2 * w

Also the area is equal to:

A = w * l

replacing:

A = w * (1000 - 2 * w)

A = 1000 * w - 2 * w ^ 2

We derive:

A '= 1000 - 4 * w

Let's equal 0:

1000 - 4 * w = 0

w = 1000/4

w = 250

replacing and we calculate l:

l = 1000 - 2 * 250

l = 500

A = 250 * 500

A = 15,000 ft ^ 2

Which means that for each subdivision the maximum area would be 125000 square feet and the total would be:

125000 * 3 = 375000 ft ^ 2

Can anybody plz help me on C and D and it's due tm someone plz help
Airida [17]
0.3% = 0.003..." of " means multiply
0.003(200) = 0.6 <==

0.85% = 0.0085
0.0085(600) = 5.1 <==

what u can do to turn the percents to decimals is divide by 100.
0.3 / 100 = 0.003 and 0.85 / 100 = 0.0085
or u can move the decimal two spaces to the left

Which number line models the solution set of -2x + 7 &gt; 17?Pls do 2 answers for good measures (and brainliest)
Sidana [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can immediately eliminate answers B and C because we have >, meaning that the circle on the number line has to be open.

-2x+7>17

subtract 7 on both sides

-2x>10

divide by -2. remember that dividing by a negative flips the greater than or less than sign.

x<-5

the answer is D
