When the sides are the same legnth, that is max area
(I can find the max area with calculus but I don't think you know that)
so
if we assume that they are equal
L=W
376=perimiter
P=2(L+W)
376=2(L+W)
376=2(L+L)
376=2(2L)
376=4L
divide both sides by 4
94=L

the dimeintions are 94 by 94, if we mulipy we get 8836ft

C is answer


(note: for those people who say rectangles have to have different side legnths, that is incorrect because the requirement is 4 right angles, all squares are recangles, but not all rectangles are squares)

C is answer

What are the first three terms of a geometric sequence in which (picture below) and the common ratio is 5?
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

5, 10, 15

Step-by-step explanation:

the increase in the sequence is 5 so since it starts from 0 which you can find out because 25 is the 5th sequence and that means that +2*5 =25 . x=0

0+ 5 = sequence 1

0+ 5+5 = seq 2

0+5+5+5= seq 3

Simplify 32^-1/5 Thanks in advance!!!
jeka94

Fractional index means "xth root of". Negative index means a fraction. So together, what it really means is:

\frac{1}{\sqrt[5]{32}} = \frac{1}{2}.

Ruden bought 6 new books for his collection, increasing his collection by 12%. How many books did he have before his purchase?
forsale [732]

Answer:

he had 44 books before he bought those 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If you multiply 6 times 2 it is 12, which means if you take away 12 from 100 that is 88. if you divided 88 by 2 (the same thing you did to the 6 to make it 12%) that would be 44.

John wants to find the center of a wall so he can hang a picture. He measures the wall and determines it is 65.25" wide. 65.25"
Viktor [21]

It is given that John wants to find the center of a wall so he can hang a picture. So, John measures the wall and <u>determines</u> it is 65.25 inches wide. Since John has determined that the wall measures a particular amount that means that John has <u>quantified</u> the width of the wall, which in this case comes out to be 65.25 inches.

Again, this is a single number. This means that the width of the wall is a <u>discrete</u> quantity.

Thus, 65.25 inches or 65.25" is a Quantitative and Discrete type of data. Thus, out of the given options, the first option is the correct one.

Angle D has what measurement according to the protractor?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

B. 90^o

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a protractor and we are asked to find the measure of angle D.

We can see from our given protractor that the measure of angle D is 90 degrees as the ray OD crosses our protractor at 90 degrees.

Therefore, the measure of angle D is 90 degrees and option B is the correct choice.
