Yes ofcourse I can help you!
Answer:
L=8
Step-by-step explanation:
area of a rectangle = length x width
given:
area= 20 square units
width =2.5 units
find the length by substituting :
20=2.5 x L
L= 20/2.5=8
that's it :)
This is iReady Testing, no one answer. This it just to get an understanding of the students knowledge and will not help this person if we answer for them. Their results will be inaccurate and they might get placed in a class thats too advanced for them
Xy = 940
<span>and </span>
<span>Cost = 5(2x) + 5y + 10y (I chose y to be the side with brick). The cost equation simplifies to: </span>
<span>C = 10x + 15y </span>
<span>Replace y in the cost equation with 940/x: </span>
<span>C = 10x + 15(940/x) </span>
<span>C = 10x + 14100/x <---this is the equation you need to minimize. </span>
<span>C' = 10 - 14100/x^2 </span>
<span>10 - 14100/x^2 = 0 </span>
<span>14100/x^2 = 10 </span>
<span>x^2 = 14100/10 = 1410 </span>
<span>x = sqrt(1410) = 37.55 </span>
<span>y = 25.03 <---this is the length of the brick fence.</span>
