Answer:

41,666.67m2

Step-by-step explanation:

Call W the Width and L the Length with 3 pieces.

The total length will be 2W + 3L

The Area is L*W

so,

A = L*W

2W+3L = 1000

Solve for L

3L = 1000-2W

L = (1000-2W)/3

subtitute for L into the first equation

A = L*W

A = W*(1000-2W)/3

A = (1000W - 2W^2)/3

Now, to find the max, set the 1st derivative = 0. I don't know if you know what that means, but...

dA/dW = 1000/3 - 4W/3 = 0

1000 - 4W = 0

W = 250 meters

Solve for L

2W+3L = 1000

500 + 3L = 1000

3L = 500

L = 166.67 m

Area = 250*500/3 = 41,666.67m2.

What is the simplest form of the radical expression?
BaLLatris [955]
I believe the equation is
4 \sqrt[4]{2x} + 6  \sqrt[4]{2x}
In this case, you would simplify it by adding them together.
4 \sqrt[4]{2x} + 6  \sqrt[4]{2x} = 10  \sqrt[4]{2x}
And can even be changed to an exponential equation:
10(2x)^{ \frac{1}{4} }

Find the limit of the function algebraically. (2 points) limit as x approaches zero of quantity x squared plus two x divided by
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

DNE

Step-by-step explanation:

\lim_{x \to \0} \frac{x^{2} +2x}{x^{4} }

As you can see in the picture I attached to this, that as the limit goes to zero from the negative side, it approaches -∞ and from the positive side, it approaches ∞ . hence, the limit doesn't exist.

To show this algebraically, you have to imagine how a number divided by zero looks like, Just know the graph of 1/x and see how the limit to zero doesnot exist. I hope this helps!

Find the other end point of the line segment that has the given points: Endpoint: (5,1) Midpoint: (9,3)
Tems11 [23]
The formula for the midpoint of a line segment:
(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})
where x₁, y₁ - the coordinates of one endpoint; x₂, y₂ - the coordinates of the other endpoint

\hbox{endpoint} - (5,1) \\
x_1=5 \\ y_1=1 \\ \\ \hbox{midpoint} - (9,3) \\ \Downarrow \\ \frac{5+x_2}{2}=9 \\ 5+x_2=18 \\ x_2=13 \\ \\ \frac{1+y_2}{2}=3 \\ 1+y_2=6 \\ y_2=5 \\ \\
\hbox{the other endpoint} - \boxed{(13,5)}
