Answer:

Dimensions of the rectangular plot will be 500 ft by 750 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the rectangular plot = x ft.

and the width of the plot = y ft.

Cost to fence the length at the cost $3.00 per feet = 3x

Cost to fence the width of the cost $2.00 per feet = 2y

Total cost to fence all sides of rectangular plot = 2(3x + 2y)

2(3x + 2y) = 6,000

3x + 2y = 3,000 ----------(1)

3x + 2y = 3000

      2y = 3000 - 3x

      y = \frac{1}{2}[3000-3x]

      y = 1500 - \frac{3x}{2}

Now area of the rectangle A = xy square feet

A = x[1500-\frac{3x}{2}]

For maximum area \frac{dA}{dx}=0

A' = \frac{d}{dx}(1500x-\frac{3}{2}x^{2}) = 0

1500 - 3x = 0

3x = 1500

x = 500 ft

From equation (1),

y = 1500 - \frac{3}{2}\times 500

y = 1500 - 750

y = 750 ft

Therefore, for the maximum area of the rectangular plot will be 500 ft × 750 ft.

two fencing 3(500+500) = $3000

other two fencing 2(750+750) = $3000

Determine whether each relation is a function. Give the domain and range for each relation.
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Not a function

Domain: {3,4}

Range: {4,5}

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is a relation where each input has its own output. In other words if the x value has multiple corresponding y values then the relation is not a function

For the relation given {(3, 4), (3, 5), (4, 4), (4, 5)} the x value 3 and 4 have more than one corresponding y value therefore the relation shown is not a function

Now let's find the domain and range.

Domain is the set of x values in a relation.

The x values of the given relation are 3 and 4 so the domain is {3,4}

The range is the set of y values in a relation

The y value of the given relation include 4 and 5

So the range would be {4,5}

Notes:

The values of x and y should be written from least to greatest when writing them out as domain and range.

They should be written inside of brackets

Do not repeat numbers when writing the domain and range
