Parallel = same slope
Y = 5x + b
8 = 5(5) + b
8 = 25 + b
b = -17
Equation: y = 5x - 17
Well, point slope is y - y1 = m(x-x1) So A and D are out. And the negative would cancel each other out for a positive, answer being, B.
Material=wall+2*side and material is 40 ft so:
40=w+2s
w=40-2s
Area=ws, using w from above we get:
A=(40-2s)s
A=40s-2s^2
dA/ds=40-4s and d2A/ds2=-4
Since d2A/ds2 is a constant negative acceleration, when dA/ds=0, A(s) is at an absolute maximum.
dA/ds=0 when 4s=40, s=10 ft
And since w=40-2s, w=20 ft
So the dimensions of the pen are 20 ft by 10 ft, with the 20 ft side being opposite the wall. And the maximum possible area is thus 200 ft^2
Answer:
I think it means to multiply.
