Answer:
it would techically be a 50/50 chance of getting either an A or a 2
Answer:
- north and south sides are 38 8/9 ft long
- east and west sides are 17.5 ft long
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Short answer</u>: area is maximized when half the cost is spent in each of the orthogonal directions. This means the east and west sides will total $350 at $20 per foot, so will be 17.5 feet. The north and south sides will total $350 at $9 per foot, so will be 38 8/9 feet.
The dimensions that maximize the area are 17.5 ft in the north-south direction by 38 8/9 ft in the east-west direction.

<u>Long answer</u>: If x represents the length of the north and south sides, and y represents the length of the east and west sides, then the total cost is ...
10y +10y +2x +7x = 700
9x +20y = 700
y = (700 -9x)/20
We want to maximize the area:
A = xy = x(700 -9x)/20
We can do this by differentiating and setting the derivative to zero:
dA/dx = 700/20 -9x/10 = 0
350 -9x = 0 . . . . multiply by 10
x = 350/9 = 38 8/9
y = (700 -9(350/9))/20 = 350/20 = 17.5
The north and south sides are 38 8/9 ft long; the east and west sides are 17.5 ft long to maximize the area for the given cost.
Ok
look at my picture below.
so the lowest number is minimum
the highest number is maximum
the average is mean. formula for average: sum of all no./no. of total number
median is the very middle no. the formula is: 1/2(n+1)
n=how many no.s there are.
A is the awnser,because it is asking for the area of the square figure not the triangular figure in the middle.
