The answer is 600 for your question.

Note that this is still a rectangle, and the length of the fencing is still 600 ft.

So the sum of the sides NOT along the river x + x + y = 600, and the area equals xy.

This makes the two equations: 2x + y = 600, and A = xy.

To find the largest area, we need to find A as a function of x or y. I suggest solving the first equation for y and replacing that in the second equation.

y = 600 - 2x. and A(x) = x(600-2x)

We now need to maximize A(x) = 600x - 2x2.

Remember, if x = -b/(2a), we find the x value of the vertex, the y value can be found by substitution.

So, since a = -2, and b = 600, x = -600/(-4) = 150 ft. If x = 150, y = 600 - 2(150) = 300.

So, the dimensions are 150 x 300 and the maximum area = 300(150) = 45,000 ft2

I hope this helps. By the way, there are many variations of this, and they are all similar. For example, you might want to make several pens with two lengths parallel and have three parallel withs inside.

If a building was placed at coordinates (-5,5), what would be the new coordinates if rotated 270° counterclockwise around the or
Brums [2.3K]

The rule for a 270° counterclockwise rotation is (x, y) ---> (y, -x).

So if you rotated (-5,5) 270° counterclockwise around the origin the new coordinates would be (-5,-5).

Hope this Helps!!

Hey can u help me how to do this plz.
Svetach [21]
Okay so x represents the amount of tickets sold. So first, you’d add the $40 + $70 which equals $110. So x = $110.

Now we have to solve for y. Same thing but with different numbers. $200 + $260 = $460.
The answer is (110,460)
x. y.

Find the number that makes the 2 fractions equivalent 3/8=9/?
Lorico [155]

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

The numerator of the equivalent fraction of 3/8 is 9. From this, we can see that the common factor that is being multiplied is 3. So the denominator, 8, has to be multiplied by 3 as well which gives you 24. 9/24 is an equivalent fraction of 3/8

A temperature of –25°c is equivalent to:<br> a. 248 k.<br> b. 25 k.<br> c. –25 k.<br> d. 298 k.
SpyIntel [72]

The temperature T in Kelvin (K) is equal to the temperature T in degrees Celsius (°C) plus 273.15:

T(K) = T(°C) + 273.15;

So, T(K) = -25 + 273.15;

T(K) = 248.15;

The correct answer is a.
