They are equal
(-16)-(-4)
*negative and negative make a positive
-16+4= -12
-16+4=-12
They both make -12. They both are equal
Answer:
x = 500 yd
y = 250 yd
A(max) = 125000 yd²
Step-by-step explanation:
Let´s call x the side parallel to the stream ( only one side to be fenced )
y the other side of the rectangular area
Then the perimeter of the rectangle is p = 2*x + 2* y ( but only 1 x will be fenced)
p = x + 2*y
1000 = x + 2 * y ⇒ y = (1000 - x )/ 2
And A(r) = x * y
Are as fuction of x
A(x) = x * ( 1000 - x ) / 2
A(x) = 1000*x / 2 - x² / 2
A´(x) = 500 - 2*x/2
A´(x) = 0 500 - x = 0
x = 500 yd
To find out if this value will bring function A to a maximum value we get the second derivative
C´´(x) = -1 C´´(x) < 0 then efectevly we got a maximum at x = 500
The side y = ( 1000 - x ) / 2
y = 500/ 2
y = 250 yd
A(max) = 250 * 500
A(max) = 125000 yd²
Because it is every hour there's 60min so that's and hour the the next 45 min are different
(2x+1)=Jeremy´s age
(2x+3)=Sam´s age.
we suggest this equation:
(2x+1)(2x+3)=783
4x²+6x+2x+3=783
4x²+8x-780=0
x²+2x-195=0
We solve this quadratic equation:
x=[-2⁺₋√(4-4*1*(-195))]/2=(-2⁺₋28)/2
x₁=(-2-28)/2=-15 this solution is not valid.
x₂=(-2+28)/2=13
Jeremy´s age=2x+1=2*13+1=27
Sam´s age=2x+3=2*13+3=29
