Answer:

  maybe

Step-by-step explanation:

Dora is apparently assuming the dimensions are integers. In that case she is correct.

If the dimensions are unconstrained, the perimeter will be largest when a pair of opposite sides will be the smallest measure allowed.

For some perimeter P and side length x, the area is ...

  A = x(P/2 -x)

Conversely, the perimeter for a given area is ...

  P = 2(A/x +x)

This gets very large when x gets very small, so Dora is correct in saying that the side lengths that are as small as they can be will result in the largest perimeter. We have no way of telling if her assumption of integer side lengths is appropriate. If it is not, her statement makes no sense.

Which domain is most appropriate for a function that represents
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

whole numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

integers: numbers without fractional value in both negative and positive values.

whole numbers: numbers without fractional value in positive values

rational numbers: numbers that have repeating decimals

irrational numbers: numbers that have infinite but non-repeating decimals.

process of elimination:

Integers go negative, but in the real world laundry can't go negative. so no

whole numbers are perfect because it's positive and have no part of laundry. so yes

rational and irrational have decimal values saying that laundry can only be a certain percent even though thats not realistic. so no

A contractor is in charge of hiring people for a construction project. The number of days it would take to complete the project
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

\text{Domain of x}=[1,\infty), x \in Z^+

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function: f(x)=\dfrac{280}{x},$ where:

f(x) =number of days it would take to complete the project

x =number of full-time workers.

\text{When x=0, }f(x)=\dfrac{280}{0}=$Undetermined\\\text{When x=1, }f(x)=\dfrac{280}{1}=$280 days\\\text{When x=280, }f(x)=\dfrac{280}{280}=$1 day\\\text{When x=560, }f(x)=\dfrac{280}{560}=$0.5 days

The domain of a function is the complete set of possible values of the independent variable.

In this case, the independent variable is x, the number of full-time workers. We have shown that x cannot be zero as there must be at least a worker on ground.

Therefore, an appropriate domain of the function f(x) is the set of positive integers (from 1 to infinity).

\text{Domain of x}=[1,\infty), x \in Z^+
