i would just answer somewhere near the bottom but since your not allowed to do that your answer is (4)(-5)(3)...leeme know if i helped...also..lemme know if i didnt help...
<u>Answer:</u>
19.15
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
16.80 x 5% = 0.84
16.80 - 0.84 = 15.96
15.96 x 20% = 3.19
15.96 + 3.19 = 19.15
Here is the answer for math problem
There are 2 short sides x and 1 long side y.
x+x+y=1,800
2x+y=1,800
y=1,800-2x
The area of the rectangle is A=x(1,800-x).
A is a function with variable x. Moreover it is a quadratic (second degree) function.
The graph of the function is a parabola which opens downwards, because the signs of the leading coefficients of the factors, multiply to minus:
(x)(-x)=-x^2.
This means that the highest point of the parabola, is its vertex V(h,k), so the function takes its largest value for x=h.
The roots of A=x(1,800-x) are x=0 and x=1,800, thus the x coordinate of the vertex, must be the midpoint of 0 and 1,800, that is 900.
Answer:
A=x(1,800-x)
largest area is when x=900
It's x=-5. It is a vertical line, and vertical lines have a consistent x coordinate. Since it passes through (-5,0), you take the x-coordinate of this point.
