Step-by-step explanation:
From Pythagorean theorem, one of the sides can be determined as x^2 + y^2 =8^2
or y = (8^2 - x^2)^(1/2)
we can write the perimeter P as
P = 2x + 2y ---> 20 = 2x + 2(8^2 - x^2)^(1/2)
Dividing by 2, we get
10 = x + (8^2 - x^2)^(1/2)
Move the x to the other side,
10 - x = (8^2 - x^2)^(1/2)
Take the square of both sides to get rid of the radical sign:
(10 - x)^2 = 8^2 - x^2
Move everything to the left and expand the quantity inside the parenthesis:
x^2 + (100 - 20x + x^2) - 64 = 0
2x^2 - 20x + 64 = 0
or
x^2 - 10x + 32 = 0
Now we can see that a = -10 and b = 32
I am pretty sure this is right
The ordered pair maximizes the objective function p = 3x + 8y will be (5, 6) .Option C is correct.
<h3>What is the objective function?</h3>
The objective function is simply an equation that represents the goal production capability that relates to maximizing profits in relation to manufacturing.
On putting the values we will get the values one by one. We get;
1. (0, 0)

2. (2,7)

3. (5,6)

4. (8,1)

The maximum value obtained from the 63. Obtained from option C. The ordered pair maximizes the objective function p = 3x + 8y will be (5, 6)
Hence option C is correct.
