Answer:

Farmer Ed has 60 feet of fencing; and wants to enclose rectangular plot that borders on river: If Farmer Ed does not fence the side along the river; find the length and width of the plot that will maximize the area_ What is the largest area that can be enclosed? What width will maximize the area? The width, labeled x in the figure. (Type an integer or decimal ) What length will maximize the area? The length, labeled in the figure, is (Type an integer or decimal ) What is the largest area that can be enclosed? The largest area that can be enclosed is (Type an integer or decimal.)

You have 120 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular plot that borders on a river.

What is the area of the largest rectangle with lower base on the x-axis and upper vertices on the curve y = 12 - x2? (4 points)
wolverine [178]

Answer: 16 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

let the vertex in quadrant I be (x,y)  

then the vertex in quadratnt II is (-x,y)  

base of the rectangle = 2x  

height of the rectangle = y  

Area = xy  

= x(12 - x²)  

= -x³ + 12x  

d(area)/dx = 3x² - 12 = 0 for a maximum of area  

3x² = 12  

x² = 4  

x = ±2  

y = 12-4 = 8

So, the largest area = 2 x 8 = 16 square units

What is the range of the function graphed on the grid? { x │ x = -2, 2, 4} {y│-3 ≤ y ≤ 4} {y│ y = -3, 0, 4} { x │-2 ≤ x ≤ 4}
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The image is sideways.

But if your graph is like on the image, then the answer is: {y│-3 ≤ y ≤ 4}

Range is the set of y values

Least function value is -3 and greatest is 4

A line on this coordinate plane is horizontal when every input (x) has the same output y).

This function always gives the same output with no matter what input you put it in.
