The equation that describes the which gives the area of the pen, A, as a function of x, the length of fence parallel to the barn is A = 130x - x²
<h3>How to find area of a rectangle?</h3>
The pen is rectangular. Therefore,
area of a rectangle = lw
where
Therefore,
perimeter = 2w + l
perimeter = 2w + x
130 = 2w + x
130 - x = 2w
w = 65 - 1/ 2 x
A = xw
A = x(65 - 1/ 2 x)
A = 65x - 1 / 2 x²
Therefore, the function that represents A, the area of the pen is as follows:
A = 130x - x²

Quick what does ^ mean I can solve that but I need to know what ^ means.
It's called a decimal.
I hope it helps.
8 ÷ 0.001 = 8 000
a) 8 ÷ 0.0001 = 80 000
8 ÷ 0.001 = 8 000
b) 8 ÷ 0.01 = 800
8 ÷ 0.001 = 8 000
8 ÷ 1/10 = 8 ÷ 0.1 = 80
c)8 ÷ 0.01 = 8 000
