Answer:

625 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

P = 100 --- perimeter

Required

The largest area

The perimeter is calculated as:

P = 2 * ( L + W)

So, we have:

2 * ( L + W) = 100

Divide both sides by 2

L + W  = 50

Make  L the subject

L = 50 - W

The area is calculated as:

A= L * W

Substitute L = 50 - W

A= (50 - W) * W

Open bracket

A = 50W - W^2

Differentiate with respect to W

A' = 50 -2W

Set to 0; to get the maximum value of W

50 - 2W = 0

Collect like terms

-2W = -50

Divide by -2

W = 25

So, the maximum area is:

A = 50W - W^2

A = 50 * 25 - 25^2

A = 1250 - 625

A = 625

Christian’s Gym charges a one-time fee of $50 plus $30 per session for a personal trainer.
nydimaria [60]

Answer: For 10 sessions, the cost of the two plans the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= Number of sessions.

Given: Christian’s Gym charges a one-time fee of $50 plus $30 per session for a personal trainer.

Total charge for x sessions = 50+30x

Nicole's fitness center charges a yearly fee of $250 plus $10 for each session with a  trainer.

Total charge for x sessions = 250+10x

When both plan charges the same, then

50+30x=250+10x\\\\\Rightarrow\ 30x-10x=250-50\\\\\Rightarrow\ 20x=200\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=10

i.e. For 10 sessions, the cost of the two plans the same.
