<span>We let x be the length and y be the width of the rectangle. Then,
 
Perimeter = 2x + 2y
100 = 2x + 2y
50 = x + y
y = 50 - x
 
Area = xy
A = x(50 - x)
A = 50x - x^2
 
We then take the derivative; set it equal to zero:
 
A ' = 50 - 2x
0 = 50 - 2x
2x = 50
x = 25
y = 50 - x
y = 50 - 25
y = 25
 
Therefore, the dimensions are 25 and 25.</span>

Answer:

First option, relation 1 and relation 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Because they both cross one of the two axes once, which from what I remember, makes it a function.

Extra Example 3: Hazel has $23.28 in her purse. She has $5.60 more than Nixon.
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Yolanda is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Hazel has $23.28 and $5.60 more than Nixon, then Nixon will have $17.68 because 23.28-5.60 is 17.68.

The only way Paul would be right is if Nixon has $5.60 more than Hazel because 23.28+5.60 is 28.88.

6x+12y=15 -6+2y=c Solve for C
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

C = - 21 -6x

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 12y = 15 (1)

- 6 + 2y = C (2)

multiply equation (2) by 6

- 36 + 12y = C (3)

subtract equation (1) from equation (3)

- 36 + 12y = C

6x + 12y = 15

___________

- 36 - 6x = C - 15

now we collect the terms (make C by itself)

- 36 + 15 - 6x = C (to do this we add 15 to both sides)

- 21 -6x = C

That's about as much as you can simplify it.

Hope this helps,

A bacteria culture initially contains 2000 bacteria and doubles every half hour.
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

the size of the bacterial population after 100 minutes is 20,158.7 bacteria

the size of the bacterial population after  10 hours is 2097152000 bacteria

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

The bacteria contains 2000

It would be double at every half hour

We need to find out the size of the bacteria after 100 minutes & 10 hours

So,

The size of the bacteria after 100 minutes is

= 2000 × 2^(100 ÷ 30)

= 2000 × 10.079

= 20,158.7 bacteria

Now the size of the bacteria after 10 hours is

10 hours = 10 × 60 minutes = 600 minutes

= 2000 × 2^(600 ÷ 30)

= 2097152000 bacteria
