<h2>Maximum area is 25 m²</h2>

Explanation:

Let L be the length and W be the width.

Aidan has 20 ft of fence with which to build a rectangular dog run.

         Fencing = 2L + 2W  = 20 ft

                     L + W = 10

                      W = 10 - L

We need to find what is the largest area that can be enclosed.

     Area = Length x Width

      A = LW

       A = L x (10-L) = 10 L - L²

For maximum area differential is zero

So we have

      dA = 0

      10 - 2 L = 0

        L = 5 m

      W = 10 - 5 = 5 m

Area = 5 x 5 = 25 m²

Maximum area is 25 m²

Samuel made a list of his test scores: 88, 100, 92, 80, 85, 94, and 90. What is the lowest test score he can get on his next tes
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

he needs to get a 91 to have a mean score of 90

Step-by-step explanation:

add up all the known scores to get 629

let 's' = lowest test score

(629 + s) ÷ 8 = 90   [we divide by 8 because there are 7 known and 1 unknown score)

cross-multiply to get:

629 + s = 720

s = 720-629

s = 91

What is the point-slope form of a line that has a slope of 3 and passes through point (1, 4)? y minus 4 = 3 (x minus 1) 1 minus
Tresset [83]

Answer:

y - 4 = 3(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

It looks like you have slope 3  and a point (1, 4)

so  it should be  y - 4 = 3(x - 1)

which is your first choice:  y minus 4 = 3 (x minus 1)

State the vertex and axis of symmetry of the graph of y=ax2+c.
Neporo4naja [7]

State the vertex and axis of symmetry of the graph of y=ax^2+c

General form of quadratic equation is y=ax^2 + bx +c

There is no bx in our given equation, so we put 0x

Given equation can be written as y=ax^2 + 0x +c

a=a , b=0

Now we use formula to find vertex

x=\frac{-b}{2a}

x=\frac{-0}{2a}=0

Now we plug in 0 for 'a' and find out y

y=a(0)^2 + 0x +c= c

So our vertex is (0,c)

The axis of symmetry at x coordinate of vertex

So x=0 is our axis of symmetry

Steve invests 1,800 in an account that earns 3.7% annual interest, compounded continuously. What is the value of the account aft
Vlada [557]

Answer: the value of the account after 10 years is $2606

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for continuously compounded interest is

A = P x e (r x t)

Where

A represents the future value of the investment after t years.

P represents the present value or initial amount invested

r represents the interest rate

t represents the time in years for which the investment was made.

e is the mathematical constant approximated as 2.7183.

From the information given,

P = 1800

r = 3.7% = 3.7/100 = 0.037

t = 10 years

Therefore,

A = 1800 x 2.7183^(0.037 x 10)

A = 1800 x 2.7183^(0.37)

A = $2606 to the nearest dollar
