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

Fred works as a gardener. He charges at least $15 to drive to a residence and
Amanda [17]

We are required to find an inequality which best represents the relationship between the number of hours gardening g and the total charge c

The inequality which best represents the relationship between the number of hours gardening g and the total charge c is c ≥ 15 + 12g

At least means greater than or equal to (≥)

fixed charge = $15

charges per hour = $12

Total charge = c

Number of hours = g

The inequality:

<em>Total charge ≥ fixed charge + (charges per hour × Number of hours</em>

c ≥ 15 + (12 × g)

c ≥ 15 + (12g)

c ≥ 15 + 12g

Therefore, the inequality which best represents the relationship between the number of hours gardening g and the total charge c is c ≥ 15 + 12g
