Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Because lets say Length was 3 and Width is a variable of w
3xW=Area
Answer:
- 50 ft by 75 ft
- 3750 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of the side not parallel to the partition. Then the length of the side parallel to the partition is ...
y = (300 -2x)/3
And the enclosed area is ...
A = xy = x(300 -2x)/3 = (2/3)(x)(150 -x)
This is the equation of a parabola with x-intercepts at x=0 and x=150. The line of symmetry, hence the vertex, is located halfway between these values, at x=75.
The maximum area is enclosed when the dimensions are ...
50 ft by 75 ft
That maximum area is 3750 square feet.

<em>Comment on the solution</em>
The generic solution to problems of this sort is that half the fence (cost) is used in each of the orthogonal directions. Here, half the fence is 150 ft, so the long side measures 150'/2 = 75', and the short side measures 150'/3 = 50'. This remains true regardless of the number of partitions, and regardless if part or all of one side is missing (e.g. bounded by a barn or river).
The other dog's age is "x". Rex's puppy is 5 years less than "x". SO...

Answer:
30 blue pins
Step-by-step explanation:
30% is the same as 30 out of 100, so this can be written in this fraction: 
now, you should multiply this fraction by the total number of pins she ordered:
100 x
to solve this, you can simplify by dividing 100 by 100, this equals 1
30 times 1 is 30
there are 30 blue pins
