Answer:
400 m^2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The largest area is obtained where the enclosure is a square.
I think that's the right answer because a square is a special form of a rectangle.
So the square would be 20 * 20 = 400 m^2.
Proof:
Let the sides of the rectangle be x and y m long
The area A = xy.
Also the perimeter 2x + 2y = 80
x + y = 40
y = 40 - x.
So substituting for y in A = xy:-
A = x(40 - x)
A = 40x - x^2
For maximum value of A we find the derivative and equate it to 0:
derivative A' = 40 - 2x = 0
2x = 40
x = 20.
So y = 40 - x
= 40 - 20
=20
x and y are the same value so x = y.
Therefore for maximum area the rectangle is a square.
Answer: 75(2) OR 25(6)
Step-by-step explanation:75+75 = 150 OR 25+25+25+25+25+25=150
Subtract 10 and collect terms to get the variable term by itself on the left.
... 4c = 24
Divide by the coefficient of the variable, 4.
... c = 6
The appropriate choice is the second one:
... 6
_____
You don't actually have to sove the equation to find the right answer. You just need to see which answer works.
-6: 5(-6) -(-6) +10 = -14 ≠ 34
6: 5(6) -(6) +10 = 34 . . . . . . . this answer works (you can stop here)
11: 5(11) -(11) +10 = 54 ≠ 34
-11: 5(-11) -(-11) +10 = -34 ≠ 34
Answer:
91 Adults
Step-by-step explanation:
Because there are 26 children, you divide it by 2 to get 13. Multiply 13 by 7 for your answer, 91
