Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a rectangle is constructed with its base on the x axis and two of its vertices on the parabola
This parabola has vertex at (0,100) and symmetrical about y axis.
Any general point above x axis can be written as (a,b) (-a,b) since symmetrical about yaxis.
Hence coordinates of any rectangle are
Length of rectangle = 2a and width =
Area of rectangle = lw =
To find max area, use derivative test.
Hence maxima when first derivative =0
i.e. when a =2
Thus we find dimensions of the rectangle are l =4 and w = 96
Maximum area =
The correct answer to your question is number 2
For a rectangle, A = LW.
A = (3x + 2)(x - 4)
A = 3x^2 - 12x + 2x - 8
A = 3x^2 -10x - 8
C I need to put 20 letters so yea the answer is C
