Patricia is building the community dog park. She plans to build the dog park right beside the city park so she can use one side

of the existing fence. Her budget allows her to purchase 340 feet of fencing. In order to make the area of the dog park as large as possible, determine the dimensions of the dog park if one side of the fence is attached to the city park’s fence.

Answer:

85 feet by 170 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This one relies on Calculus.

so you have 340   feet.

Let  x = width,   y = length of rectangle

one side of this rectangle will not use the new fence material

so  2x + y = 340 feet.

Area = x*y

We want to maximize  Area

Area  A = x*y = x*(340 - 2x)

Take the derivative of A  w.r.t.  x

dA/dx =  340 - 4x

set it to 0

340 - 4x = 0

4x = 340

x = 85 feet

and y = 340 - 2x = 340 - 2*85 = 340 - 170 = 170 feet

Claire for to a show sale. Everything on the shelf is 35% off the marked price. She falls in love with a pair of red heels that
lyudmila [28]
Percentage of discount on the Marked price = 35%
Marked price of the pair of red heels that Claire falls in love with = $64.99
Then
Amount of discount on the
marked price of the pair of red heels = (35/100) * 64.99 dollars
                                                           = 0.35 * 64.99 dollars
                                                           = 22.746 dollars
                                                           = 22.75 dollars
Then
Price of the red heels after discount = (64.99 - 22.75) dollars
                                                           = 42.24 dollars
Percentage of sales tax that needs to be given by Claire = 7.5%
Amount of sales tax that needs to be given by Claire = (7.5/100) * 42.24 dollars
                                                                                     = 316.80/100 dollars
                                                                                     = 3.168 dollars
                                                                                     = 3.17 dollars
Then
The total price of the
red heels that Claire has to pay = (42.24 + 3.17) dollars
                                                   = 45.41 dollars
So Claire has to pay a total of $45.41 for the pair of red heels she has fallen in love with.

If a fish experiences an acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2 over a period of 1.4s (It must be falling), then what is its change in veloci
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Change In velocity= 13.72 ms^-1

Step-by-step explanation:

fish experiences an acceleration of

9.8 m/s^2 over a period of 1.4s

Change in velocity/time= acceleration

Time in seconds= 1.4 s

Acceleration in meter per second square= 9.8 m/s^2

Change in velocity/time= acceleration

Change In velocity= acceleration*time

Change In velocity= 9.8*1.4(m/s^2 *s)

Change In velocity= 13.72 ms^-1

Team, you have the opportunity to earn great bonuses this quarter. Your goal is to beat our competition, which brings in $1,800,
nikklg [1K]

They will have to bring in more than $600,000 a month to beat their competitors.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; This establishment's competitors bring in $1,800,000 per quarter. This means that they bring in that amount of money through sales in a quarter of a year.

A quarter of a year = \frac{1}{4} × 12 months = 3 months.

So the competition brings in $1,800,000 in 3 months.

Step 2; Now we calculate how much this establishment must make to beat them.

Money to brought in a month = $1,800,000 / 3= $600,000 a month.              So the team must bring in more than $600,000 a month to beat their competitor's sales of $1,800,000 in a quarter.
