Answer:

84=2l+2w

w=21

Step-by-step explanation:

84=2(l+w)

42=l+w

l=42-w

Area=l×w

A=(42-w)×w

Differentiate A=42w-w×w

with respective to "w".

dA/dw= 42-2w

For a minimum or maximum area

dA/dw=0

then, 42-2w=0

w=21

proving "A" is maximum when "w=21"

dA/dw>0 when w<21

dA/dw<0 when w>21

Therefore Area is maximum when "w=21"

kaheart [24]

Answer:

3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Step 1 : Write the formula of calculating probability</em>

Probability = Number of favourable outcomes/Number of total outcomes

<em>Step 2 : Identify the favourable (requires) outcomes and the total outcomes</em>

  • Total outcomes are the total cards that are placed on the table = 10 cards
  • The favourable outcomes are the number of cards that have an even number on them.

       12, 14, 18 = 3 cards

<em>Step 3 : Substitute the values in the formula</em>

Probability = Number of favourable outcomes/Number of total outcomes

Probability = 3/10

Therefore, the probability of picking a card with and even number is 3/10.
