Answer:

21 ft by 28 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To maximize the area, see the attached.

Perimeter will be 4l+3w which is equal to the fencing perimeter, given as 168

4l+3w=168

Making l the subject then

4l=168-3w

l=42-¾w

Area of individual land will be lw and substituting l with l=42-¾w

Then

A=lw=(42-¾w)w=42w-¾w²

A=42w-¾w²

Getting the first derivative of the above with respect to w rhen

42-w6/4=0

w6/4=42

w=42*4/6=28

Since

l=42-¾w=42-¾(28)=21

Therefore, maximum dimensions are 21 for l and 28 for w

Evaluate the expression. 5^2−4⋅6+11 Enter your answer in the box.
mart [117]

Explanation:

This question's it's about the order of operations. P-parenthesis, E-exponents, M-multiply, D-divide, A-add, and S-subtract. It can also go left to right.

Do exponents first.

5^2=5*5=25

25-4*6+11

Then, multiply left to right.

4*6=24

25-24+11

And add/subtract left to right.

25-24=1

1+11=12

\boxed{=12}

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!

I don’t know how to solve this
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the length of all the sides in the figure.

The arc of the semi- circle is included in this.

length of arc = \frac{1}{2}πd ← d is the diameter

here d = 8, hence

arc = \frac{1}{2}π × 8 = 4π ← exact length

Perimeter = 10 + 8 + 10 + 4π ≈ 40.57 in ( nearest hundredth )
