Answer:

Dimensions :

x (the longer side, only one side with fence )   =  90  ft

y ( the shorter side two sides with fence )        =  45  ft

Total fence used   45 * 2  +  90    =  180 ft

A(max)  =  

Step-by-step explanation: If a farmer has 180 ft of fencing to encloses a rectangular area with fence in three sides and the river on one side, the farmer surely wants to have a maximum enclosed area.

Lets call "x" one the longer side  ( only one of the longer side of the rectangle will have fence, the other will be along the river and won´t need fence. "y" will be the shorter side

Then we have:

P = perimeter  =  180  =  2y  +  x        ⇒   y  =  ( 180 - x )  / 2        (1)

And   A (r)   =  x * y

A(x)   =  x  *  ( 180 - x ) /2       ⇒   A(x)   = (180/2) *x   -  x² / 2

Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation :

A´(x)   =  90   -  x    

Then if    A´(x)   =  0   ⇒        90   -  x    =  0     ⇒   x  =  90 ft

and from :       y  =  ( 180 - x )  / 2     ⇒     y  =  90/2

y  =  45  ft

And

A(max)  =  90 * 45    =  4050  ft²

Help plz...................................
N76 [4]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

These are similar triangles, so the ratio of their sides is the same for each side.

AB = 8  and  BD = 10

So, the ratio is 8:10   or   4:5

Because the triangles are similar....

The ratio of AC:CE  is also  4:5

12:15 = 4:5

So, 12 is the answer!

makvit [3.9K]

to find the median, you have to,

The median is also the number that is halfway into the set. To find the median, the data should be arranged in order from least to greatest. If there is an even number of items in the data set, then the median is found by taking the mean (average) of the two middle-most numbers.

A school raised &amp;4,589 in a sale. Mr Simmons class raised 1/100 of the money. How much did Mr Simmons class raise?
Ksenya-84 [330]

Alright, lets get started.

total amount school raised in sale = $ 4589

Mr Simmons class raised \frac{1}{100} of the money.

So, if we want to find amount of the money Mr. Simmons raised, we sould take one hundered of the total amount.

Hence money raised by Mr. Simmons class = \frac{1}{100} * 4589

Hence money raised by Mr. Simmons class = \frac{4589}{100}

Hence money raised by Mr. Simmons class = $ 45.89 : Answer

Hope it will help :)
