The answer would be:
ABD=78.8
DBC=61.1
Shorter side: 130ft
longer side: 260ft
greatest possible area: 33800ft^2
basically get the equations for area and perimeter which will be
A: lw (length x width)
P: l + 2w
Substitute them into eachother and you get the equation:
-2w^2+520w = A
find the vertex of this parabola which will give you the greatest width which is 130m
Then u can find length and area from this width
Answer:
(-2,-6)
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the vertex take the number that's in the parathenses with the x and flip it's sign (in this case to a negative) which means we have
-2
this is the x coordinate of the vertex.
Next take the number that's being subtracted (or added) on the outside and leave that as is (-6)
This is the y coordinate
which means we have (-2,-6)
the axis of symmetry is just the x coordinate of the graph
which is -2
4y - 8 - 2y + 5 = 0
2y - 3 = 0
2y = 3
y = 3/2
