Answer:

1170450 yd^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing is to calculate the necessary perimeter, which would be like this:

2 * a + b = 3060

if we solve for b, we are left with:

b = 3060-2 * a

Now for the area it would be:

A = a * b = a * (3060-2 * a )

A = 3060 * a -2 * a ^ 2

To maximize the area, we calculate the derivative with respect to "a":

dA / da = d [3060 * a -2 * a ^ 2

]/gives

dA / day = 3060 - 4 * a

If we equal 0:

0 = 3060 - 4 * a

4 * a = 3060

a = 3060/4

a = 765 and d

Therefore b:

b = 3060 - 2 * a = 3060 - 1530 = 1530

A = a * b

A = 765 * 1530

A = 1170450 and d ^ 2

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

y = -2x/3 + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A(0,1), B(2,4)

slope of AB = (yb-ya)/(xb-xa) = (4-1)/(2-0) = 3/2

Slope of perpendicular to AB

m = -1/(3/2) = -2/3

Point to lie on perpendicular, P(0,2)

Equation of perpendicular, point-slope form

(y-yp) = m(x-xp)

y-2 = -(2/3)(x-0)

y = -2x/3 + 2
