Answer:

x = 425 yard

y = 425 yard

Area  = 180625 square yard

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

fencing = 1,700 yards

solution

we consider here length and width is x and y

so parameter is = P

P = 2 ( x+ y)

1700 = 2 ( x+ y)  

x + y = 850    

x = 850 - y      ...............1

and

area of rectangle is

Area = x y

area = ( 850 - y  )  y

area = 850 y - y²

so for large area is

\frac{dA}{dy}  = 0

\frac{dA}{dy} = 850 - 2y

so here

850 - 2y = 0

y = 425  yard

and from equation 1

x = 850 - y  

x = 850 - 425

x = 425 yard

and

Area = 425 × 425

Area  = 180625 square yard

The bearing of Y from X is 63
zimovet [89]

Answer:

  • 117°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>As per diagram:</u>

  • ∠NXY ≅ ∠XYZ as alternate interior angles since XN and YN are parallel and XY is transversal
  • m∠XYZ = m∠XZY = 63° since ΔXYZ is isosceles

<u>Find the measure of ∠YXZ:</u>

  • m∠YXZ = 180° - 2*63° = 54°

<u>Find the bearing of Z from X:</u>

  • m∠NXZ = m∠NXY + m∠YXZ = 63° + 54° = 117°

Find the values of x, y, and z.
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

x = 20°

y = 160°

z = 160°

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 20°

(Measure of arc is equal to the measure of its corresponding central angle)

z = 180° - 20°

(Linear pair angles)

z = 160°

y = z

(Measure of arc is equal to the measure of its corresponding central angle)

y = 160°

The chess club has 50 members. They want to raise $680 for a trip to a competition. The school will give $130 How much must each
Setler79 [48]
So what they need to rais is what the school doesn't give them
so to find that subtract what the school gives them from how much they need
need=680
given=130
680-130=550
they need to raise 550

if each member raises the same amount we fid that by doing
total divided by number of members
total=550
number o fmembers=50
550/50=11
each must raise $11
