Answer:

C. f(-1) =12

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= 3x^2+9

Let x=-1

f(-1) = 3(-1)^2 +9

= 3(1)+9

= 3+9

= 12

f(-1) =12

You have D dollars to buy fence to enclose a rectangular plot of land (see figure at right). The fence for the top and bottom co

alex41 [277]

The perimeter of the rectangular plot of land is given by the expression below

$P=2x+2y$

On the other hand, since the available money to buy fence is D dollars,

$\begin{gathered} D=4(2x)+3(2y) \\ \Rightarrow D=8x+6y \\ D\rightarrow\text{ constant} \end{gathered}$

Furthermore, the area of the enclosed land is given by

$A=xy$

Solving the second equation for x,

$\begin{gathered} D=8x+6y \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{D-6y}{8} \end{gathered}$

Substituting into the equation for the area,

$\begin{gathered} A=(\frac{D-6y}{8})y \\ \Rightarrow A=\frac{D}{8}y-\frac{3}{4}y^2 \end{gathered}$

To find the maximum possible area, solve A'(y)=0, as shown below

$\begin{gathered} A^{\prime}(y)=0 \\ \Rightarrow\frac{D}{8}-\frac{3}{2}y=0 \\ \Rightarrow\frac{3}{2}y=\frac{D}{8} \\ \Rightarrow y=\frac{D}{12} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the corresponding value of x is

$\begin{gathered} y=\frac{D}{12} \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{D-6(\frac{D}{12})}{8}=\frac{D-\frac{D}{2}}{8}=\frac{D}{16} \end{gathered}$ <h2>Thus, the dimensions of the fence that maximize the area are x=D/16 and y=D/12.</h2><h2>As for the used money,</h2> $\begin{gathered} top,bottom:\frac{8D}{16}=\frac{D}{2} \\ Sides:\frac{6D}{12}=\frac{D}{2} \end{gathered}$ <h2>Half the money was used for the top and the bottom, while the other half was used for the sides.</h2>

6. 4p + 5 - 7p = -1

Ivenika [448]

Answer: p=2

Step-by-step explanation: The first thing you should do is combine any like terms. For you this means combining 4p and -7p. This gives you -3p+5=-1. Then, subtract 5 on each side to eliminate the 5. This gives you -3p=-6. Divide by -3 on each side to allow the p to stand alone. This makes p=2.
