Answer:

   625 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest area of a polygon with a given perimeter is that of a regular polygon. A regular rectangle is one that has all sides the same length -- a square. The side length of a square with 100 ft perimeter is 25 ft. The area of a square with such a side length is

  A = (25 ft)² = 625 ft²

The maximum possible area is 625 ft².

__

In the attached, x is the length of one side. The area versus side length is plotted. The maximum is seen to be 625 ft² for a side length of 25 ft.

If the point (-6, 10) lies on the graph of y=f(x) then which of the following points must lie on the graph of y=1/2f(x)?
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

(-6,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=f(x) ----> the parent function

y=1/2f(x) ---> the new y-value will be 1/2 times the original value

The rule of the transformation of f(x) to 1/2f(x) is

(x,y) -----> (x,y/2)

substitute the given value

(-6,10) ------> (-6,10/2)

(-6,10) ------> (-6,5)

Write an expression with a variable m, a coefficient -3, and a constant of 17
Svetlanka [38]

Answer

-3m + 17

Step-by-step explanation:

A coefficient is a number that goes in front of the variable, so -3 would go in front of m. A constant is just a number on it's own, so it would be +17
