Hiya!

Yes, like the other answer, Zarina is ten and her father is forty. Yes, there are many possibilities as to what the ages could be because of those two variables, but 10×40 is 400, which is the only correct answer. Her father can't be ten and she forty, that doesn't make sense! They both cannot be 25, either, because that does not multiply to 400.

I hope that this is a good explanation! :)

If you found this especially helpful, I'd appreciate if you'd vote me Brainliest for your answer, if other people did not provide a helpful answer (but, I'm sure they did!). I want to be able to assist more users one-on-one! :)

kow [346]

Answer:

The maximum possible area of the pasture is 26,450 feet square.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the width of the rectangular area = m ft

and the length of the area = k ft

Also assume: ( one side with k units IS NOT FENCED)

So, the total perimeter of the fencing is:

2 m + k = 460

or, k = 460 - 2m ........ (1)

Now, AREA OF THE RECTANGULAR PORTION = Length x Width = k x m

Put k = 460 - 2m

We get: A = m (460 - 2m)

or, A = 460 m - 2m²

We need to find the maximum for the parabolic function A = 460 m - 2m²

The function has a maximum value as the quotient in front of x^2 is negative: -2 < 0

A (max) = $c-\frac{b^2}{4a}$ where a = -2, b = 460, c = 0

= $-\frac{(460)^2}{4(-2)} = 26,450$

A max = 26,450 sq ft.

The maximum possible area of the pasture is 26,450 feet square.

a = 46c....for c
a/46 = c

322 = 46c
322/46 = c

Elena wants to make a scale drawing of her bedroom. Her bedroom is a rectangle with length 5 m and width 3 m. She decides on a s

katovenus [111]

We are given dimensions of rectangular bedroom = length of 5m and width 3 m.

Also scale drawing of factor 1/50 of the original dimension.

In order to find the dimensions of scale drawing, we need to multiply scale factor by each dimension.

Therefore, length of the scale drawing is 5 * 1/50 = 1/10 m and

Let us convert it in centimeter now.

1 m = 100 cm

1/10 m = 100 * 1/10 = 10cm.

Width of the scale drawing = 3 * 1/50 = 3/50 m.

100*3/50 = 6 cm.

Therefore, the dimensions of a scale drawing of Elenas bedroom is length 10cm and width 6cm.
