Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

You don't need any real math to guess at the right answer.

Choice A requires at least 33+32+32=97 feet of fence, hence you  an rule it out because that is more fence than you have.

Choice B requires at least 16+16+16=48 feet, hence you can rule it out because it does not use all your fence and you can get more area by using it all.

Choice C requires at least 48+16+16=80 feet of fence, which is more than you have.

Choice D requires at least 32+16+16=64 feet of fence, so this is the right choice.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2L+W=64\\ \\ W=64-2L\\ \\ A=LW\\ \\ A=64L-2L^2\\ \\ \frac{dA}{dL}=64-4L=0\\ \\ 4L=64\\ \\ L=16\\ \\ W=64-2(16)\\ \\ W=32\\ \\ \text{So the lengths are 32ft by 16ft}

to which family does the function y=(x 2)1/2 3 belong? a: quadratic b: square root c: exponential d :reciprocal
Neko [114]

Answer:

option a is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given the equation:

y=x+\frac{1}{2}^{\frac{1}{2}}+3

Squaring both sides of the above equation we get:

y^2=(x+\frac{1}{2})^2+9+2\cdot(x+\frac{1}{2})(3)

After simplifying the first  step

y^2=x^2+\frac{1}{4}+x+9+3(2x+1)

y^2=x^2+x+6x+3+9+\frac{1}{4}

y^2=x^2+7x+12+\frac{1}{4}

After final simplification we get:

4y^2=4x^2+28x+49

We are getting quadratic equation since, the degree in resultant is 2.

Therefore, option a is correct.

Andre earns $4,000 a month at his new job in order to track his spending and saving he created a monthly budget. Andre divided h
Alik [6]

Answer:

If Andre plans on staying within his budget, he should choose Apartment 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Apartment 1: $1100 rent + $250 utilities = $1350 Total Monthly

Apartment 2: $1350 rent + $100 utilities = $1450 Total Monthly

Andre can spend up to $1320 on rent & $320 on utilities, totaling at $1640. In this situation, Andre needs to save as much money as possible. Either on one of these apartments stay below the budget for monthly cost, but Apartment 2's rent goes $30 higher than his budget allows. In the end, this makes apartment 1 the best option for rent, utilities, and ultimate cost.

If Andre plans on staying within his budget, he should choose Apartment 1.

Part A:

We see that this pair of equations has 1 solution. On a graph, the solutions of 2 (or more) lines is where the lines intersect. In this case, since these lines intersect 1 time, they have 1 solution.

Part B:

As previously mentioned, the solutions of multiple lines is where the lines intersect. In this case, since they intersect at (4,4), that is the solution.
