The owner of the Rancho Grande has 3,044 yd of fencing with which to enclose a rectangular piece of grazing land situated along

the straight portion of a river. If fencing is not required along the river, what are the dimensions (in yd) of the largest area he can enclose? shorter side? longer side? what is the area?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the rectangular piece A = xy

x is the length

y is the width

Perimeter =2x+2y

Given

Perimeter = 3044yds

3044 = 2x+2y

1522 = x+y

x = 1522-y

Substitute into the formula for area

A = xy

A = (1522-y)y

A = 1522y-y²

To maximize the area, dA/dy must be zero

dA/dy = 1522-2y

0 = 1522-2y

2y = 1522

y = 1522/2

y = 761

Since x+y = 1522

X+761 = 1522

X = 761

Dimension is 761yd by 761yd

Area = 761×761 = 579121yd²

What are the coordinates of the image rectangle for a scale factor of 3 if the center of dilation is the origin?
Ksju [112]

Answer: Choice B)

Explanation:

You mentioned there isn't a diagram to go with this, but I'm assuming that this problem is referring to a previous problem you posted. In that problem, it mentions that point W is at (1,-2). If we apply the scale factor 3, then we're tripling each coordinate. That means x = 1 becomes x = 3, and y = -2 becomes y = -6

We can write it like this:

(1,-2) ---> 3*(1, -2) = (3*1, 3*(-2) ) = (3, -6)

Only choice B has W'(3,-6) so this is likely the final answer.

If we apply this dilation to every point, then that effectively makes quadrilateral W'X'Y'Z' to be three times longer and taller than compared to quadrilateral WXYZ. In other words, its side lengths are 3 times longer.

What is the measurement of the angle B. please explain.​
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

65

Step-by-step explanation:

Total degrees in triangle: 180

Angle 1= 50

We know that the other two angles are equal, so set it as "2x"

50 +2x= 180

2x=180

x=65
