Let x be the shorter side, and y be the longer side
There would be 4 fences along the shorter side, and 2 fences along the longer side
4x + 2y = 800
Rewrite in terms of y:
y = 400 − 2x
The area of the rectangular field is
A = x*y
Replace Y with the equation above:
A = x(400 − 2x)
A = − 2x^2 + 400x
The area is a parabola that opens downward, the maximum area would occur at the parabola vertex.
At the vertex
x = −b/2a
= −400/[2(−2)]
= 100
y = 400 −2x
y = 400 -2(100)
y = 400-200
y = 200
The dimension of the rectangular field that maximize the enclosed area is 100 ft x 200 ft.
Answer:
y=-3x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
m=slope or gradient (=-3)
y=-3x+b
Add your points
(2, -1)
-1=(-3 x 2)+b
-1= -6+b
-1+6=b
b=5
y=-3x+5
Answer:
Area of shaded region = 28 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of rectangle = 8 x 5 = 40 in^2
Area of triangle = 1/2 x 8 x 3 = 12 in^2
Area of shaded region = 40 in^2 - 12 in^2 = 28 in^2
Answer:
Product of a Power: When you multiply exponentials with the same base, you add their exponents (or powers). Power to a Power: When you have a power to a power, you multiply the exponents (or powers). Quotient of Powers: When you divide exponentials with the same base, you subtract the exponents (or powers).
