Answer:
<h3>
The width (side perpedicular to the barn):
<u>x = 8 m</u></h3><h3> The lenght (side parallel to the barn):
<u>y = 16 m</u> </h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
x - the width of the barn
She has 32 m of fencing so for the lenght remain (32-2x) m of fencing:
y = 32 - 2x
Area of the fencing: A = x•y
A(x) = x•(32 - 2x)
A(x) = -2x² + 32x ← quadratic function
The maximum value of quadratic function occurs at: 
a = -2, b = 32

32-2x = 32 - 2•8 = 16
The algebraic expression 1/8y verbal expression is: one is
divided by the product of 8 and a number.
To decipher the mathematical information
in a problem, a verbal expression (or verbal model) uses
words. From a verbal model,
an equation can often be
written.
Area inside the semi-circle and outside the triangle is (91.125π - 120) in²
Solution:
Base of the triangle = 10 in
Height of the triangle = 24 in
Area of the triangle = 

Area of the triangle = 120 in²
Using Pythagoras theorem,




Taking square root on both sides, we get
Hypotenuse = 23 inch = diameter
Radius = 23 ÷ 2 = 11.5 in
Area of the semi-circle = 

Area of the semi-circle = 91.125π in²
Area of the shaded portion = (91.125π - 120) in²
Area inside the semi-circle and outside the triangle is (91.125π - 120) in².
Answer: the number of multiple choice questions in the test is 12.
the number of short response questions in the test is 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of multiple choice questions in the test.
Let y represent the number of short response questions in the test.
The total number of questions in the test is 20. It means that
x + y = 20
The multiple choice questions are worth 3 points each and the short response question are worth 8 points each. The total number of points is 100. It means that
3x + 8y = 100 - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 20 - y into equation 1, it becomes
3(20 - y) + 8y = 100
60 - 3y + 8y = 100
- 3y + 8y = 100 - 60
5y = 40
y = 40/5 = 8
x = 20 - y = 20 - 8
x = 12
(A) 13.75=3p+4h
(B) 9.75=2p+3h
(Ax3) 41.25=9p+12h
(Bx4) 39=8p+12h
(A-B)
2.25=p
So one slice is £2.25
