I believe that you have issues with the function for the curve. Because if that function is correct, the rectangle with the maximum area will have the two coordinates off the X-axis of (-infinity, infinity) and (infinity, infinity) and the area of the rectangle will be infinite.

Assuming correct expression is
y = 1/1 + x^2 = 1 + x^2.
Then you need to find 2 x values that have the same y value. You'll quickly realize that the values X and -X will work and give you the same Y value. And as you use large absolute values of X, the Y value will also increase. And carried to the logical limit, the largest possible rectangle will happen with X values of -infinity and +infinity.

Assuming correct expression is
1 = 1 + x^2, which simplifies to 0 = x^2, which has the exact same argument. The coordinates of the 2 points are (-infinity, infinity) and (infinity, infinity). So once again, the area of the rectangle increases without limit.

<span>The dimension of the rectangle would be length=#4/sqrt3# and width =4-#4/3= 8/3# Explanation: Let one vertex on the x axis be x, then the other vertex would be -x. Length of the rectangle would be thus 2x and width would be #4-x^2# Area of the rectangle would be A=#2x(4-x^2)= 8x-2x^3# For maximum area #(dA)/dx=0=8-6x^2#, which gives x=#2/sqrt3# The dimension of the rectangle would be length=#4/sqrt3# and width =4-#4/3= 8/3# Was this helpful? Let the contributor know!</span>

Put the steps in correct order to prove that if x is irrational, then 1/x is irrational using contraposition.
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

The correct order is:

a

c

d

b

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's write 1/x in a convenient way for us:

a) Substitute 1/x = p/q, to obtain x = 1/(1/x) = 1/(p/q) = q/p.

Now we assume that 1/x is rational (we want to prove that this implies that x will be also rational and because we know that x is irrational assuming that 1/x is rational will lead to an incongruence), then:

c. If 1/x is rational, then 1/x = p/q for some integers p and q with q ≠ 0. Observe that p is not 0 either, because 1/x is not 0.

Now we know that we can write x as a quotient of two integers, we need to imply that, then the next one is:

d) Observe that x is the quotient of two integers with the denominator nonzero.

And that is the definition of rational, then we end with:

b) Hence x is rational.

Which is what we wanted to get.

I WILL MAKE YOU THE BRANLIEST
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

The area of a triangle is given by half the multiplication of base and height. Since you want the answer is squared centimeters, let's convert base and height in centimeters first:

b = 4.3 m = 430 cm, \qquad h = 2.6m = 260 cm

Now we can do the computation:

A = \dfrac{430cm \cdot 260cm}{2} = 55900 cm^2
