Material=wall+2*side and material is 40 ft so:

40=w+2s

w=40-2s

Area=ws, using w from above we get:

A=(40-2s)s

A=40s-2s^2

dA/ds=40-4s and d2A/ds2=-4

Since d2A/ds2 is a constant negative acceleration, when dA/ds=0, A(s) is at an absolute maximum.

dA/ds=0 when 4s=40, s=10 ft

And since w=40-2s, w=20 ft

So the dimensions of the pen are 20 ft by 10 ft, with the 20 ft side being opposite the wall.  And the maximum possible area is thus 200 ft^2

Answer:

The <em>dimensions</em> are 20 ft by 10 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

I just took this quiz and put the answer 200 by 200 ft. And I got it wrong because they asked for the dimensions. The other person's answer is correct, but in the wrong form! Thanks for the help and support on brainly!!!

what are the solutions of the equation x4 95x2 – 500 = 0? use factoring to solve. and x = ±10 and x = ±10i and x = ±10i and x =
Andreas93 [3]

Doing factorization, we know that the factors of the given equation are ±√5 and ±10i.

<h3>What is Factorization?</h3>

In mathematics, factorization or factoring consists of writing a number or any mathematical item as a product of several factors, typically small or easier objects of the same.

For example, 3 × 5 is a factorization of an integer 15 and is a factorization of an equation x² – 4.

So, we have the equation:

x⁴ + 95x² – 500 = 0

Factorizing the above equation:

x⁴ + 100x² - 5x² - 500 = 0

x²(x² + 100) - 5(x² + 100) = 0

(x² - 5)(x² + 100) = 0

Solving further:

x² = 5

x² = -100

x = ±√5

x = √-100

Factors: ±√5 and ±10i

Therefore, doing factorization, we know that the factors of the given equation are ±√5 and ±10i.
