Marquise has 200200200 meters of fencing to build a rectangular garden.
1 answer:
Answer:
2500 Square meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the garden area (as a function of its width) as:
The maximum possible area occurs when we maximize the area. To do this, we take the derivative, set it equal to zero and solve for w.
A'(w)=-2w+100
-2w+100=0
-2w=-100
w=50 meters
Since Marquise has 200 meters of fencing to build a rectangular garden,
Perimeter of the proposed garden=200 meters
Perimeter=2(l+w)
2(l+50)=200
2l+100=200
2l=200-100=100
l=50 meters
The dimensions that will yield the maximum area are therefore:
Length =50 meters
Width=50 meters
Maximum Area Possible =50 X 50 =<u>2500 square meters.</u>

The probability that a part picked from this batch at random is either red or L-shaped is 0.68
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us revise some rules of probability
The addition rules are:
- P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) ⇒ mutually exclusive (events cannot happen at the same time)
- P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B) ⇒ non-mutually exclusive (if they have at least one outcome in common)
∵ A batch has 100 parts
∵ 40 are red
- Probability of an event is the [even occurs/total outcomes]
∴ P(red) =
∵ 50 are L-shaped
∴ P(L-shaped) =
∵ 22 are both red and L-shaped
∴ P(red and L-shaped) =
This is non-mutually exclusive because there is a common between them, so we will use the 2nd rule
∵ P(red or L-shaped) = P(red) + P(L-shaped) - P(red and L-shaped)
∴ P(red or L-shaped) = 0.4 + 0.5 - 0.22
∴ P(red or L-shaped) = 0.68
The probability that a part picked from this batch at random is either red or L-shaped is 0.68
