Answer:
The width of the border can be 9 feet or 3.5 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width be x
Length of room = 10 feet
Breadth of room = 15 feet
Length of rug = 10-2x
Breadth of rug = 15-2x
Area of rug =
We are given that the area of the rug is 24 square feet.
So,
---A






Substitute x =9 in A


LHS = RHS
Substitute x = 3.5


LHS = RHS
So, The width of the border can be 9 feet or 3.5 feet.
I don’t know if this will help but here you go
The probability of any event is between 0 and 1. 0 means impossible and 1 means certain.
It could also be written with the percents: 0% and 100%.
Answer is 4 so C for you. I just did this with my brother! Hope this helped.
The dimensions that would result to maximum area will be found as follows:
let the length be x, the width will be 32-x
thus the area will be given by:
P(x)=x(32-x)=32x-x²
At maximum area:
dP'(x)=0
from the expression:
P'(x)=32-2x=0
solving for x
32=2x
x=16 inches
thus the dimensions that will result in maximum are is length=16 inches and width=16 inches
