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...)

Area and volume math question pretty simple please help no explanation needed just answers
Svetlanka [38]

Solution ,

length = 4m

breadth = 1.2m

height = 0.3m

Now

Area = l × b

= 4m × 1.2 m

= 4.8m²

Now

Volume = l × b × h

= 4m × 1.2m × 0.3m

= 1.44 m³

Two positive integers are 3 units apart on a number line. Their product is 108. Which equation can be used to solve for m, the g
nikitadnepr [17]
If the greater integer is m, then the smaller integer must be (m-3) because the integers are 3 units apart on a number line. It cannot be in front of m, because m is the greater so it must be behind m meaning it is 3 units less. Product is the technical term for the result of a multiplication problem so m(m-3) = 108 would be the answer.

Final Answer: m(m-3) = 108
