Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the slope of the given line
we have
(-3,2) and (0,1)
The slope m is

step 2
Find the slope of the line perpendicular to the given line
Remember that
If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of its slopes is -1)
so
The slope is

step 3
Find the equation of the line in point slope form
we have


----> equation in point slope form
Convert to slope intercept form
Let x represent the side length of the square end, and let d represent the dimension that is the sum of length and girth. Then the volume V is given by
V = x²(d -4x)
Volume will be maximized when the derivative of V is zero.
dV/dx = 0 = -12x² +2dx
0 = -2x(6x -d)
This has solutions
x = 0, x = d/6
a) The largest possible volume is
(d/6)²(d -4d/6) = 2(d/6)³
= 2(108 in/6)³ = 11,664 in³
b) The dimensions of the package with largest volume are
d/6 = 18 inches square by
d -4d/6 = d/3 = 36 inches long
The shortest side is 130 feet, the longest side is 260 feet and the greatest possible area is 33800 square feet
<h3>What dimensions would guarantee that the garden has the greatest possible area?</h3>
The given parameter is
Perimeter, P = 520 feet
Represent the shorter side with x and the longer side with y
One side of the garden is bordered by a river:
So the perimeter is:
P = 2x + y
Substitute P = 520
2x + y = 520
Make y the subject
y = 520 - 2x
The area is
A = xy
Substitute y = 520 - 2x in A = xy
A = x(520 - 2x)
Expand
A = 520x - 2x^2
Differentiate
A' = 520 - 4x
Set to 0
520 - 4x = 0
Rewrite as:
4x= 520
Divide by 4
x= 130
Substitute x= 130 in y = 520 - 2x
y = 520 - 2 *130
Evaluate
y = 260
The area is then calculated as:
A = xy
This gives
A = 130 * 260
Evaluate
A = 33800
Hence, the shortest side is 130 feet, the longest side is 260 feet and the greatest possible area is 33800 square feet

Why is everything due tomorrow xD. Also im sorry but I dont understand this either.
A = 1/2 bh = 1/2 (3)(4) = 12/2 = 6
answer is B. 6 square units
