with what
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
9.5
Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 60 by both sides

Jacob wants to build a rectangular enclosure for his animals. One side of the pen will be against the barn,so he needs no fence on that side.
Let w be the width of the enclosure (perpendicular to the barn) and let l be the length of the enclosure (parallel to the barn).
one side of the length is not counted for perimeter because one side of length will be against the barn.
Perimeter = 400 ft
Perimeter of rectangle = L + W + W
400 = L + 2W
L = 400 - 2W
Area = L * W
Replace L by 400 - 2W
A(W) = (400 - 2W) * W

Now we find out x coordinate of vertex to find the width that maximize the area

a= -2 and b = 400

The width w would maximize the area is w = 100ft
To find maximum area we plug in 100 for W in A(W)


the maximum area is 20,000 square feet

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use 2 coordinates from the table along with the standard form for an exponential function to write the equation that models that data. The standard form for an exponential function is
where x and y are coordinates from the table, a is the initial value, and b is the growth/decay rate. I will use the first 2 coordinates from the table: (0, 3) and (1, 1.5)
Solving first for a:
. Sine anything in the world raised to a power of 0 is 1, we can determine that
a = 3. Using that value along with the x and y from the second coordinate I chose, I can then solve for b:
. Since b to the first is just b:
1.5 = 3b so
b = .5
Filling in our model:

Since the value for b is greater than 0 but less than 1 (in other words a fraction smaller than 1), this table represents a decay function.
