Answer:
12.252, 12.26, 12.387, 12.4
Step-by-step explanation:
These are the only numbers in a series that are always increasing.
The first series (0.13, 0.31, 0.04, 0.5) and fourth series (6.009, 6.015, 6.241, 6.2) all have an area where they decrease (0.04 and 6.2 respectively).
The second series of numbers is in decreasing order, rather than increasing order. This can not be the answer.

Ok
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The width which gives the greatest area is 7.5 yd
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an application of differential calculus. Given the area as a function of the width, we simply need to differentiate the function with respect to x and equate to zero which yields; 15-2x=0 since the slope of the graph is zero at the turning points. Solving for x yields, x=7.5 which indeed maximizes the area of the pen
.3455 is the correct answer.
