Answer:

1250 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y denote the sides of the rectangular research plot.

Thus, area is;

A = xy

Now, we are told that end of the plot already has an erected wall. This means we are left with 3 sides to work with.

Thus, if y is the erected wall, and we are using 100m wire for the remaining sides, it means;

2x + y = 100

Thus, y = 100 - 2x

Since A = xy

We have; A = x(100 - 2x)

A = 100x - 2x²

At maximum area, dA/dx = 0.thus;

dA/dx = 100 - 4x

-4x + 100 = 0

4x = 100

x = 100/4

x = 25

Let's confirm if it is maximum from d²A/dx²

d²A/dx² = -4. This is less than 0 and thus it's maximum.

Let's plug in 25 for x in the area equation;

A_max = 25(100 - 2(25))

A_max = 1250 m²

What are the values of x and y in the figure shown below?
n200080 [17]
First let's find y. We know the sum of angles equals 180, so if we add the angles of ABC, we'd get 180.
30+y+80+y=180
110+2y=180
2y=70
y=35

You could solve x ,but the only response with y=35 is c. But to solve for x, you'd ad 35 35 and xwhich would equal 180.
35+35+x=180
70+x=180
x=110

Hatshy [7]

Answer: No triangles can be formed.

Step-by-step explanation: Given Dimensions = 15cm , 7cm , 5cm

Inequality property = Sum of 2 shorter sides ≥ 3rd side

∴ 7 + 5 is not greater than 15

∴<u><em> No triangles can be formed.</em></u>
