Elimination because u could multiply the second equation by -3 which would cancel the x and allow you to solve for y and then everntually x but yea elimination is the best method

A farmer has 520 feet of fencing to construct a rectangular pen up against the straight side of a barn, using the barn for one s

Setler [38]

Answer:

$310\text{ feet and }210\text{ feet}$

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: A farmer has $520 \text{ feet}$ of fencing to construct a rectangular pen up against the straight side of a barn, using the barn for one side of the pen. The length of the barn is $310 \text{ feet}$ .

TO FIND: Determine the dimensions of the rectangle of maximum area that can be enclosed under these conditions.

SOLUTION:

Let the length of rectangle be $x$ and $y$

perimeter of rectangular pen $=2(x+y)=520\text{ feet}$

$x+y=260$

$y=260-x$

area of rectangular pen $=\text{length}\times\text{width}$

$=xy$

putting value of $y$

$=x(260-x)$

$=260x-x^2$

to maximize $\frac{d \text{(area)}}{dx}=0$

$260-2x=0$

$x=130\text{ feet}$

$y=390\text{ feet}$

but the dimensions must be lesser or equal to than that of barn.

therefore maximum length rectangular pen $=310\text{ feet}$

width of rectangular pen $=210\text{ feet}$

Maximum area of rectangular pen $=310\times210=65100\text{ feet}^2$

Hence maximum area of rectangular pen is $65100\text{ feet}^2$ and dimensions are $310\text{ feet and }210\text{ feet}$

Consider two people being randomly selected. (For simplicity, ignore leap years.)

inna [77]

Answer:

$(a) = \frac{144}{133225} \\\\(b) = \frac{1}{365}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part (a) the probability that two people have a birthday on the 9th of any month.

Neglecting leap year, there are 365 days in a year.

There are 12 possible 9th in months that make a year calendar.

If two people have birthday on 9th; P(1st person) and P(2nd person).

$=\frac{12}{365} X\frac{12}{365} = \frac{144}{133225}$

Part (b) the probability that two people have a birthday on the same day of the same month

P(2 people selected have birthday on the same day of same month) + P(2 people selected not having birthday on same day of same month) = 1

P(2 people selected not having birthday on same day of same month):

$= \frac{365}{365} X \frac{364}{365} =\frac{364}{365}$

P(2 people selected have birthday on the same day of same month) $= 1-\frac{364}{365} \\\\= \frac{1}{365}$

X + y = -5 determine x-intercept and y-intercept

Fofino [41]

Very easy question.

To find x intercept: Multiply y by 0. You get x=-5.

To find y intercept: Multiply x by 0. You get y=-5.
