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

Find the standard equation of the circle with center (5, -3
Mrac [35]

Answer:

○ C

Explanation:

Accourding to one of the circle equations, \displaystyle (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2,the centre of the circle is represented by \displaystyle (h, k).Moreover, all negative symbols give you the OPPOCITE TERMS OF WHAT THEY <em>REALLY</em> ARE, so you must pay cloce attention to which term gets which symbol. Another thing you need to know is that the radius will ALWAYS be squared, so no matter how your equation comes about, make sure that the radius is squared. Now, in case you did not know how to define the radius, you can choose between either method:

Pythagorean Theorem

\displaystyle a^2 + b^2 = c^2 \\ \\ 6^2 + 8^2 = r^2 \hookrightarrow 36 + 64 = r^2 \hookrightarrow \sqrt{100} = \sqrt{r^2} \\ \\ \boxed{10 = r}

Sinse we are dealing with <em>length</em>, we only desire the NON-NEGATIVE root.

Distanse Equation

\displaystyle \sqrt{[-x_1 + x_2]^2 + [-y_1 + y_2]^2} = d \\ \\ \sqrt{[-5 - 3]^2 + [3 + 3]^2} = r \hookrightarrow \sqrt{[-8]^2 + 6^2} = r \hookrightarrow \sqrt{64 + 36} = r; \sqrt{100} = r \\ \\ \boxed{10 = r}

Sinse we are dealing with <em>distanse</em>, we only desire the NON-NEGATIVE root.

I am joyous to assist you at any time.

Question shown in pic attached!
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer: <B= 101, <C= 79, <D=101

Step-by-step explanation: all parallelograms have the diagonal angles equal so that is why <c=79. Parallelograms also have all angles equal to 360. so if you add <C, and <A you have 158. then you subtract that from 360 and you get 202. You then need to divide it by to to get the measures of angles B and D which are 101 each.
