suppose you have 76 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular dog pen. The function A=38x-x^2, where x= width, gives you the area

of the dog pen per square feet. What width gives you the maximum area? What is the maximum area? Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

If A=38x-x^2 then

dA/dx=38-2x

d2A/dx2=-2

Since the acceleration, d2A/dx2 is a constant negative, when velocity, dA/dx=0, it will be an absolute maximum for A(x)

dA/dx=0 only when 38=2x, x=19

A(19)=38(19)-19^2

A(19)=722-361

A(19)=361 ft^2

So the maximum possible area is 361 ft^2

(This will always be true as the maximum possible area enclosed by a given amount of material will always be a perfect square...)

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer: 6.25 or 6 \frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets do a pro gamer move and convert all fractions to decimals.

We now have 1+1+1.25+1.5+1.5.

From there on we simply do addition.

1+1+1.25+1.5+1.5=6.25

We get 6.25 or 6 \frac{1}{4}

den301095 [7]

Answer:

p - 5q = 4qr where

q = 4 and r = -1 by applying these value

p - 5(4) = 4(4)(-1)

p - 20 = -16

p = -16 + 20

p = 4

zvonat [6]

Answer:

x = -(4/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

-3 (-4) \times1 = -16\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-3\left(-4\right)\times\:1\\\\\frac{-3\left(-4\right)x\times\:1}{-3\left(-4\right)\times\:1}=\frac{-16}{-3\left(-4\right)\times\:1}\\\\Simplify\\\\x=-\frac{4}{3}

Help me with three questions a brainlist!
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First question

1 solution

  • 6p-12= - 5p       Take 6p from both sides
  • -12 = -5p - 6p    Combine
  • -12 = - 11p           Divide by - 11
  • -12/-11 = p
  • 1.09 = p

Second Question

  • Infinitely many solutions.
  • 5p + 10 = 5p + 10
  • No matter what value you use for p, the right side of the equation always equals the left side.

Third question

  • y = 25 - 2x
  • x = 6
  • y = 25 - 2*6
  • y = 25 - 12
  • y = 13

There are 13 more stops to make.
