Maximum area of the rectangle is 9cm^{2}

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u></u>

Considering the dimensions to be in cm

f(x) = -(x-3)^{2} +9\\f(x) = -(x^{2} +9 - 6x)+9\\f(x) = -x^{2} +6x\\f'(x) = -2x+6\\-2x+6 = 0\\2x=6\\x=3cm\\\\

Putting the value of x = 3

Perimeter = 2(x+b)\\12 = 2(3+b)\\6 = 3+b\\b= 3cm

Area of rectangle = x X b\\                              = 3 X 3\\                              = 9cm^{2}

Therefore, maximum area of the rectangle is 9cm^{2}

larisa [96]

Answer: The correct selling price is $29.97.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost price of an item = $27

Mark up rate = 11%

So, Amount of mark up would be

So, Amount after mark up would be

Hence, the correct selling price is $29.97.

The manager's likely error is that he has put the selling price the mark up amount only i.e $2.9≈$3 instead of adding the mark up amount to the cost price.

Find each measurement. Assume that each figure is not drawn to scale.
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

1) 2 1/4 inches (2.25)

2) 5.3 millimeters

3) X=10 and YZ=60

Step-by-step explanation:

Number 1, you just add the measurements because n and q is the start and end of the line segment.

Number 2, you are given the whole measurement, and you know FG which is 9.7, so you subtract the 15 (whole measurement) by 9.7, which is 5.3.

Number 3, you know that XY and YZ equal XZ, so 8x+1 would equal 81. Do the math, you would get 8x=80 and then x=8. Now you know x, plug it in for 6x, so 6(10)=60.
