A gardener has 920 feet of fencing to fence in a rectangular garden. One side of the garden is bordered by a river and so it doe

yuradex [85]

Answer:

splitting it evenly among all three sides gives us the greatest area. ( for example if we had to split the number 10 into 2 and find the greatest area, out of all possible ways 5*5 is the greatest). Two sides have to be equal since it's a rectangle.

918/3=306

So we can make the two equal sides 306, and the longer side 308 which makes sure that we have the greatest area.

306 * 308

A line passes through the point (2, 10) and has a y-intercept of 4. What is the equation of the line? Help me please

joja [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

If it's a straight line the use formula

$y = mx + c$

m= gradient of line

c = y-intercept

we know that y-intercept is 4 so coordinate is

(0,4)

Equation also passes (2,10)

Use both coordinate to find gradient

m= vertical distance / horizontal distance

= (10-4) / (2-0)

= 3

y = 3x + 4

A road map of the state of Texas has a scale of 0.5 miles in =50 miles. If the distance between two points in the state is 600 m

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a ratio:

$\frac{0.5}{50}=\frac{x}{600}$

We can use "cross multiplication" to solve for x

Cross multiplication is multiplying the numerator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second fraction and the denominator of the first fraction by the numerator of the second fraction.

$0.5*600=50x$

$300=50x$

Divide both sides by 50 to isolate x

$x=6$
