Suppose that Nectaria also has 6 chickens. Her neighbor gives her 40 feet of fencing. She must still cut the fencing in lengths

that are whole numbers.
What equation can Nectaria write that would allow her to figure out possible dimensions for her chicken pen? Which dimensions would maximize the area of her pen?

EXPLAIN in complete sentences how Nectaria can figure out the possible dimensions for her chicken pen and which dimensions would maximize the area for her chickens.

Answer:

Max area = 100

10 10 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

here given perimeter for fencing is 40 feet

for it to have maximum area sides

sides length is perimeter / 4

so l = 40/4 = 10

so it is 10 × 10 square

Area = 100

This is the maximum area

Hi there!

<u><em>FACTS</em></u><em> :</em>

<em>To see if multiple ratios are proportional, you can write them as fractions, reduce them, and compare them. If the reduced fractions are all the same, then you have proportionnal ratios. You can also write them as fractions and divide the numerator (top number) by its denominator (bottom number), and compare the decimal numbers the same way you would compare the fractions (I personnaly find this method easier because you don't need to simplify the fractions).</em>

<u>STEPS TO ANSWER:</u>

x = 1 ; y = 90 → \frac{1}{90} = 1 ÷ 90 = <u>0.01111111...</u>


x = 2 ; y = 150 → \frac{2}{150} = 2 ÷ 150 = <u>0.0133333...</u>


x = 3 ; y = 210 → \frac{3}{210} = 3 ÷ 210 = <u>0.01428571</u>


x = 4 ; y = 270 → \frac{4}{270} = 4 ÷ 270 = <u>0.0148148...</u>


x = 5 ; y = 330 → \frac{5}{330} = 5 ÷ 330 = <u>0.01515152</u>


<em>** You didn't really need to calculate them all because even the first two decimal numbers weren't equivalent, but I wanted to show you the whole process so I calculated them all.</em>


⇒ If you compare all the decimals you got, you can easily see that they are not the same, which means that the ratios between the values of "x" and the values of "y" are not proportional. Therefore, George's reasoning wasn't good.


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

the selling price for a refrigerator is 584 if the mark up is 25% of the dealers cost, what is the dealers cost of the refrigera
tia_tia [17]
25% of 584 is 146. If you meant to say "25% off of the dealer's cost", the answer would be $438, since you're finding what 25% of the original price is (146) and subtracting it from the original price. The equation would be 584 - 146 = 438. I hope this helped <3
