<span>We let x be the length and y be the width of the rectangle. Then,
Perimeter = 2x + 2y
100 = 2x + 2y
50 = x + y
y = 50 - x
Area = xy
A = x(50 - x)
A = 50x - x^2
We then take the derivative; set it equal to zero:
A ' = 50 - 2x
0 = 50 - 2x
2x = 50
x = 25
y = 50 - x
y = 50 - 25
y = 25
Therefore, the dimensions are 25 and 25.</span>
Answer:
y = 2x + 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
To begin, we start with the equation 2y - 4x = 5.
We will add 4x to both sides to move the x term to the right side of the equation, giving us:
2y - 4x + 4x = 4x + 5
2y = 4x + 5
Next, we should divide by 2 to cancel out the coefficient on the y-term and isolate it on the left side of the equation:
2y/2 = 4x/2 + 5/2
y = 2x + 5/2
Therefore, your answer is y = 2x + 5/2 or y = 2x + 2.5.
Hope this helps!
(+5) + (-8) = -3
That’s what I got.
In order to solve this, we need to select the function that meets our constraints. Since x^2 - 5 occurs when x is less than 3, and the x-value we are given is -4, we use the first function.
f(-4) = (-4)^2 - 5
f(-4) = 16 - 5
f(-4) = 11
