A farmer wishes to enclose a pasture that is bordered on one side by a river (so one of the four sides wont require fencing) She

has decided to create a rectangular shape for the area and will use barbed wire to create the enclosure there are 600 feet of wire availible for this project and she will use all the wire. what is the maximum area enclosed by the fence then find the maximum of the function. ...?

The area enclosed is (2x)(600-2x).(2x)(600−2x)=1200x−4x2
In order to maximize we need the derivative to be equal to 0.y′=1200−8x=0
1200=8x
x=150
Therefore the sides for maximum area are 150*300.

Answer:

Area is 45000 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of fenced side parallel to the river side.

Let y be the length of other two sides.

Then,

x+ 2y 600

So, we get x=600-2y

Area of this rectangle = xy

= y(600-2y)

x=-2y^{2}+600y

Now attached is the graph of the area function, which is a parabola opening downward.

We can see ta the maximum area occurs when y=-600/[2(-2)] = 150

And x = 600-2(150)

x =600-300=300

Therefore, to maximize the area, the side parallel to the river is to be 300 feet long, and the other two fenced sides should be 150 feet long.

The area is = 300\times150= 45000 square feet.

Use a related equation that has the variable on one side. Then simplify the other side. T/3 = 15. (A t = 15 ÷ 3; t = 5.)

5 . x^2 /x^2 for x=2
goblinko [34]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Plug in 2 for x and simplify.

<h3>Evaluate</h3>
  • \frac{x^2}{x^2}
  • \frac{2^2}{2^2}
  • \frac44
  • 1

We could have also simplified the fraction first. If a fraction has the same number in the numerator and the denominator, then it is always equal to 1, no matter what values of x.
