Let each side perpendicular to the river be "x".Then the side parallel to the river is "400-2x".
The formula for Area = width*length
A(x) = x(400-2x)
A(x) = 400x - 2x^2
You have a quadratic with a = -2 and b = 400
Maximum Area occurs where x = -b/2a = -400/(2*-2) = 100 ft. (width)
length = 400-2x = 400-2*100 = 200 ft (length)
Answer:
<h3>
The solutions to the equation are called the roots of the function</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>
These are the same roots that are observable as the x -intercepts of the parabola. Notice that, for parabolas with two x -intercepts, the vertex always falls between the roots.</h3>
Answer:
h = 64 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
If you graph the function you see that 64 feet is the maximum of the parabola so this is the max height that the projectile reaches.
Answer:
m=#miles
so 130= .5m+30
subtract 30 from each side
100$= .5m than divide .5 to isolate m
m= 200
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 is equivalent to 5/20
