The two enclosures will need three equal fences coming out from the wall and meeting another fence running parallel to the wall. If the fences coming out from the wall are x metres long the parallel fence will be (132 - 3x) metres long.
The area A = x(132 - 3x) = 132x - 3x^2
The derivative of A = zero when 132 - 6x = 0 which means the maximum area is when x = 22m
The maximum area = 22 x (132 - 3 x 22) = 1452 m^2
If you don’t know how to find derivatives then you could sketch the graph of y = x(132 - 3x).
This is an inverted parabola (hill) with x intercepts at 0 and 132/3 = 44.
The maximum point (top of the hill) is halfway between 0 and 44 I.e. 22m
Try any other value for x and the area will be smaller.
Answer:
D.) 10 2/3 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The area will change by
multiply the area by 4/9 and you get 32/3 = 10 and 2/3 (because 10 = 30/3)
Answer:
He is not correct, the answer is All Real Numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
When two lines are right on top of each other, the solution set is All Real Numbers that are on both lines because the solution set is the point(s) at which the lines overlap.
Answer:
Mr.Lin's present age is 30 years now. His son is 8 years old now.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L = Mr.Lin's present age,
S = his son's present age.
First equation is
L + S = 38. (1)
The second equation is
L + 3 = 3*(S+3) (2) ("In three years' time, Mr.Lin will be three times as old as his son.")
From (1), express S = 38-L and substitute it into (2). You will get
L + 3 = 3*((38-L)+3), or
L + 3 = 114 - 3L + 9,
4L = 114 + 9 - 3,
4L = 120,
L = 30.
It is 55% because just multiply it by 100.
