Answer:

Length = 225 ft

Width = 150 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If L is the length and W is the width, then:

900 = 2L + 3W

A = LW

Solve for W in the first equation:

3W = 900 − 2L

W = 300 − ⅔ L

Substitute into the area equation:

A = L (300 − ⅔ L)

A = 300L − ⅔ L²

Use calculus to find dA/dL and set to 0, or use the formula for vertex of a parabola.

Using calculus:

dA/dL = 300 − 4/3 L

0 = 300 − 4/3 L

L = 225

Using vertex formula:

L = -b / (2a)

L = -300 / (-4/3)

L = 225

Find the width:

W = 300 − ⅔ L

W = 150

You got the right answers, but the problem says to assume that the length is greater than the width.

Find the total travel time: Depart 5:30pm MST Arrive 9:20pm CST.
Alexus [3.1K]
2 hours and 50 minutes would be the answer. MST is one hour behind CST, so you would add an hour to 5:30 to basically make them the same time zone. Then you find the time between 9:20 and 6:30 to get 2 hours and 50 minutes.

3 red balls, 4 white balls, and 1 green ball are in a bag. Balls are drawn without replacement. Find the probability that the re
jolli1 [7]

The probability that the red balls can be drawn before the green ball is drawn is 3/8.

<h3>What is Probability?</h3>

The probability is the measure of the likelihood of an event to happen.

Given:

red balls= 3

white balls = 4

green balls = 1

So, Probability of red balls

=3/8

Probability of green balls

=1/7

Use the GCF and the Distributive Property to<br> rewrite the following expression:<br> 24 +30
puteri [66]

Answer:

B = 6(4 + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

GCF = The greatest common factor, example: GCF of 12 and 16 = 12 is divisible by all of these numbers. The factors for 16 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16. The two numbers (12 and 16) share common factors (1, 2, 4). The greatest of these is 4 and that is the greatest common factor.

Distributive property = allows us to multiply the number by a group of numbers, which are added together. The distributive property is given by: a(b+c) = ab + ac

The Greatest Common Factor of 24 and 30 is 6 because it is the largest number they have together (24 = 6*4 and 30 = 6*5)

24 divided by 6 = 4

30 divided by 6 = 5

This fits B the most: 6(4 + 5)

The answer is B, I hope this helps!
