Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

we search for a square number so that rows*plantsInARow gives us the number

The number should be around 50², guessed

50² = 2500 (to low)

51² = 2601 (still to low)

52² = 2704 (bingo)

now to get from 2624 to 2704 plants he needs 80 more. That is the least number.

He could also go to plant 60² plants an than need slot more.

(would really appreciate the brainliest)

A pigpen is to be enclosed using 640 m of fencing along three of its sides, the fourth side being a barn. Determine the dimensio
Basile [38]

Answer:

W_{max}=480m\\ L_{max}=160m

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know we only have 640 feet of fence available, we know that L + W + L = 640, \implies 2L + W = 640. This allows us to represent the width, W, in terms of L: W = 640 – 2L

Remember, the area of a rectangle is equal to the product of its width and length, therefore,

A_{\rm pigpen}=L(640-2L)\implies 640L-2L^2

Notice that, quadratic has been vertically reflected, since the coefficient on the squared term is negative, so the graph will open downwards, and the vertex will be a maximum value for the area.

recall,

  • x_{max}=-b/2a
  • f(x)_{max}=f(x_{max})

Since our function is A(L)=640L-2L², we get

  • a=-2
  • b=640

plug in the value of a and b into the first formula:

L_{max}=-(640)/2(-2)\implies 160

A(L)_{max}=640(160)-2(160)^2\implies 76800

hence,the dimensions of the pen that will maximize the area are<u> </u><u>L=</u><u>1</u><u>6</u><u>0</u><u>m</u><u> </u>and<u> </u><u>W=</u><u>7</u><u>6</u><u>8</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u>/</u><u>1</u><u>6</u><u>0</u><u>=</u><u>4</u><u>8</u><u>0</u><u>m</u>

and we're done!

Michelle brought an apple cut in 4 for $0.10 per piece. How much should she pay for 3 dozen pieces ​
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

$0.90

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{4}{10}=0.4

3 dozen = 36

\frac{36}{0.4} =\frac{y}{0.1}

0.4 × y = 36 × 0.1

0.4y = 3.6

0.4y ÷ 0.4 = 3.6 ÷ 0.4

y = 9

You randomly choose one of the tiles. Without replacing the first tile, you choose a second tile. Find the probability of the co
Volgvan
Choosing the first tile:

At first, there are 7 tiles.
You are interested in choosing a 5. There is only one tile with a 5.
p(5) = 1/7


Choosing the second tile:
After the 5 has been taken, now there are 6 tiles left.
Only one tile has the number 6.
p(6) = 1/6

The overall probability of choosing a 6 after a 5 is the product of the individual probabilities:

p( 5 then 6) = 1/7 * 1/6 = 1/42

Answer: The probability of choosing a 5 and then a 6 is 1/42.

Which matrix multiplication is possible?
ruslelena [56]

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

dim A=(a,b), dim B=(c,d), in order to multiply, c=b

1) dim A=(1,2) , dim B=(1,2) but 2≠1

2) dim A=(2,1) , dim B=(2,2) but 1≠2

3) dim A=(2,2) , dim B=(1,2) but 2≠1

4) dim A=(2,1) , dim B=(1,2) 1=1: result (2,2)
