Answer:
625 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The greatest area of a polygon with a given perimeter is that of a regular polygon. A regular rectangle is one that has all sides the same length -- a square. The side length of a square with 100 ft perimeter is 25 ft. The area of a square with such a side length is
A = (25 ft)² = 625 ft²
The maximum possible area is 625 ft².
__
In the attached, x is the length of one side. The area versus side length is plotted. The maximum is seen to be 625 ft² for a side length of 25 ft.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-3 +2 +-1 +-2 +-3 +1 = -6 yards total
-6 / 6 = -1 yard per play average
Answer:
x = 42
Step-by-step explanation:
The marked angles are supplementary, so their sum is 180°.
(2x +8) +(2x +4) = 180
4x +12 = 180 . . . . . . . . . simplify
x +3 = 45 . . . . . . . divide by 4 (because we can)
x = 42 . . . . . . subtract 3

<em>Additional comment</em>
A "two-step" linear equation like this one is usually solved by subtracting the unwanted constant, then dividing by the coefficient of the variable. Here, we have done those steps in reverse order. This makes the numbers smaller and eliminates the coefficient of the variable. Sometimes I find it easier to solve the equation this way.
Answer:
The number is -2
Step-by-step explanation:
12 less than 7 times a number can be express as follows,
let the number = a
7a - 12
According to the question the number 7a - 12 is equals to 32 less than the product of - 3 and the number.
32 less than the product of -3 and the number can be express below.
-3a - 32. Therefore,
7a - 12 = -3a - 32
collect like terms
7a + 3a = - 32 + 12
10a = -20
divide both sides by 10
a = -20/10
a = -2
The number is -2

The other person is correct, my bad I got mixed up with the numbers
