Let width and length be x and y respectively.
Perimeter (32in) =2x+2y=> 16=x+y => y=16-x
Area, A = xy = x(16-x) = 16x-x^2
The function to maximize is area: A=16 x-x^2
For maximum area, the first derivative of A =0 => A'=16-2x =0
Solving for x: 16-2x=0 =>2x=16 => x=8 in
And therefore, y=16-8 = 8 in

Bc I guessed and got it right
Cubic, since it has three dimensions instead of only two.
<span>Answer:
The multiplication factor of increase should be inverse of the multiplication factor of decrease.
e.g. Say you have a number 100.
You increase it by 25%. The multiplication factor is 5/4 i.e. when you multiply 100 by 5/4, you get 100*5/4 = 125. This is 25% more than 100.
Now you want to decrease it by a certain % such that you get 100 back.
Basically, 100*5/4 * x = 100
So x = 4/5 (inverse of 5/4)
Hence, you decrease by 20% (the multiplication factor of 20% is 4/5)
or
Use this formula: cumulative % change = a + b + ab/100
You want the cumulative change to be 0.
a + b + ab/100 = 0
If you know that you are increasing by 25% and want to find the % by which you should decrease to get the same number,
25 + b + 25b/100 = 0
5b/4 = -25
b = -20
So you need to decrease (hence you get the -ve sign) by 20%.</span>
Answer: 21 eggs
Step-by-step explanation:
Charlie gathered 3 eggs from each of the three chickens so the total he gathered from chickns is:
= 3 * 3
= 9 eggs
From the 6 turkeys he got:
= 2 * 6
= 12 eggs
Eggs in total:
= 9 + 12
= 21 eggs
