The increased tax amount is ...

  0.025 × £15000 = £375

The price of the car went up by £375 due to the increase in VAT.

jenna's rectangular garden borders a wall. she buys 80 ft of fencing. what are the dimensions of the garden that will maximize i
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The  dimensions are x =20 and y=20 of the garden that will maximize its area is 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:-

let 'x' be the length  and the 'y' be the width of the rectangle

given Jenna's buys 80ft of fencing of rectangle so the perimeter of the rectangle is    2(x +y) = 80

                         x + y =40

                               y = 40 -x

now the area of the rectangle A = length X width

                                                  A = x y

substitute 'y' value in above A = x (40 - x)

                                              A = 40 x - x^2 .....(1)

<u>Step :2</u>

now differentiating equation (1) with respective to 'x'

                                      \frac{dA}{dx} = 40 -2x     ........(2)

<u>Find the dimensions</u>

<u></u>\frac{dA}{dx} = 0<u></u>

40 - 2x =0

40 = 2x

x = 20

and y = 40 - x = 40 -20 =20

The dimensions are x =20 and y=20

length = 20 and breadth = 20

<u>Step 3</u>:-

we have to find maximum area

Again differentiating equation (2) with respective to 'x' we get

\frac{d^2A}{dx^2} = -2

Now the maximum area A =  x y at x =20 and y=20

                                        A = 20 X 20 = 400

                                         

<u>Conclusion</u>:-

The  dimensions are x =20 and y=20 of the garden that will maximize its area is 400

<u>verification</u>:-

The perimeter = 2(x +y) =80

                           2(20 +20) =80

                              2(40) =80

                              80 =80

Please help me its about Solving by substitution
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

x=-2 y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

The substitution is basically given to you. Exchange x from the second equation with y-5

Once that is done and you combine the parentheses you get:

2y-10+y=-1

Add 10 on both sides of the equal sign

You get:

3y=9

Divide both sides by 3

You get:

y=3

To check your work you can substitute y in the second equation with 3 and solve it that way to get x=-2 (x equals negative two)

-3.75+2(-4x+6.1)-3.25
Pani-rosa [81]

The value of x is 0.65

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

This solution is given by solving the given problem using BODMAS rule.

This means that the steps to be followed to find the solution should be in the order of BODMAS rule.

B- Bracket, O- of, D- Division, M- Multiplication, A- Addition, S- Subtraction.

This rule states that the 1st operation must be done for Brackets.

⇒ -3.75+2(-4x+6.1)-3.25 = 0

⇒ -3.75 -8x + 12.2 -3.25 = 0

The addition operation should be performed next and then followed by subtraction.

⇒ -8x -7+ 12.2 = 0

<u>To find the value of x :</u>

Keeping the x term alone on one side and moving the constants on other side,

⇒ -8x = -12.2 + 7

⇒ -8x = -5.2

⇒ x = 5.2/8

⇒ x = 0.65
