Jill has 120 feet of fencing to use for her horse paddock. To increase the area she can enclose, she plans on using the side of

the barn as one side of her paddock as shown below.
Determine which equation can be used to find the dimensions of the horse paddock when the area is 1,800 square feet. Let x represent the width of the paddock.

2x2 - 120x = 1,800
-x2 + 120x = 1,800
x2 - 120x = 1,800
-2x2 + 120x = 1,800

Answer: <span>-x2 + 120x = 1,800
</span><span>
She plans on using the side of the barn as one side of her paddock so it has 3 sides. Since the width is shorter, it will be more efficient to have 2 widths (1 lengths and 2 widths). Because J</span><span>ill has 120 feet of fencing to use, you can get this equation:
120ft= 1L +2W
</span>1L= 120-2W

If you insert it into area formula it would be:
area= L*W
area= (120-2W) *W
area= 120W- 2W^2
-2W^2+120W= area

<span>Since x represent the width of the paddock and the area is 1800 the equation become
</span>-2X^2+120X= 1,800

Monica [59]

Complete question is;

An online store receives customer satisfaction ratings between 0 and 100, inclusive. In the first 10 ratings the store received, the average (arithmetic mean) of the ratings was 75. What is the least value the store can receive for the 11th rating and still be able to have an average of at least 85 for the first 20 ratings?

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that In the first 10 ratings the store received arithmetic mean of the ratings = 75.

Thus;

Sum of the first 10 ratings = 75 × 10 = 750

Now, for the mean of the first 20 ratings to be at least 85, it means that the sum of the first 20 ratings would be; 85 × 20 = 1700

Thus, the sum of the next 10 ratings would be; 1700 − 750 = 950.

If maximum rating = 100, then the maximum possible value of the sum of the 12th to 20th ratings is given by;

9 × 100 = 900.

Now, in order to make the store have an average of at least 85 for the first 20 ratings, the least value for the 11th rating is;

950 − 900 = 50
