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!!!

an item is regularly priced at $90. John bought it on sale for 20% off regular price. How much did John pay
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

John paid $72

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the discount, we take the regular price and multiply it by the discount percentage

Discount = 90 * .2

               = $18

The new price is the regular price minus the discount

New price = 90 -18

                 = $72

More slope pls helpppppp
noname [10]
<h3>Answer:  C) 2</h3>

Explanation:

Recall that the general point-slope form is y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) where m is the slope and (x_1, y_1) is the point the line goes through. We see that the 2 and the m match up, so m = 2 is the slope.

Side note: We can rewrite that given equation into y - (-5) = 2(x - (-1)) to see that the line goes through the point (-1, -5)
