To make the equation easier so that you don't have to use fractions.
It is 2 and 3/5 your welcome :)
Answer:
a) see below
b) 40x20 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Write down what you know:
- The area of the enclosure is length*width, so

- The length of the fencing is 80 meters, so

Now we have to combine these two equations above, and get rid of y in the process.
First rewrite the second as:

Then substitute for y in the first:

b) To maximize A, find the zero of the first derivative:

So y = (80-40)/2 = 20 meters.
Answer:
1:0.06
Step-by-step explanation:
since there is a 6% sales tax, which is the same as 0.06. to calculate your tax, you would multiply both of the sides of the ratio by 75, and the left side will show you subtotal of what you are buying, the right will show tax.
