Answer:

<h2>25metres</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the area of the garden in terms of the width modeled by the equation A(x) = -(x-25)²+625 where x is the width of the garden. The side with that will produce the maximum garden area is occurs at when d[A(x)]/dx  = 0

Given A(x) = -(x-25)²+625

d[A(x)]/dx  =-2(x-25) + 0

Since d[A(x)]/dx  = 0

-2(x-25) = 0

open the parenthesis

-2x+50 = 0

-2x = 0-50

-2x = -50

Divide both sides by -2;

-2x/-2 = -50/-2

x = 25metres

<em>Therefore the width of the garden that will produce the maximum garden area is 5metres.</em>

If PQ=RS, which of the following must be true?
maw [93]

<u>Answer:</u>

If PQ=RS then PQ and RS have the same length. Hence option D is correct

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that, pq = rs  

And, we have to find which of the given options are true.

<u><em>a) pq and rs form a straight angle </em></u>

We can’t decide the angle in between pq and rs just by the statement pq = rs.

So this statement is false.

<u><em>b) pq and rs form a zero angle. </em></u>

We can’t decide the angle in between pq and rs just by the statement pq = rs.

So this statement is false.

<u><em>c) pq and rs are same segment. </em></u>

If two things equal then there is no condition that both represents a single item.

So this statement is false.

<u><em>d) pq and rs have the same length </em></u>

As given that pq = rs, we can say that they will have the same length  

Hence, option d is true.

A ball is thrown from a height of 43 meters
AveGali [126]
When the ball will hit the ground, the height will be zero. So we need to replace h with 0 in our equation, and solve for t:
0=43-4t-5t^{2}
-5t^{2}-4t+43=0
To solve this equation we are going to use the quadratic formula: t= \frac{-b(+/-) \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}.
From our height equation, we can infer that a=-5, b=-4, and c=43. So lets replace those values in our quadratic formula to find t
t= \frac{-(-4)(+/-) \sqrt{(-4)^{2}-4(-5)(43)} }{2(-5)}
t=- \frac{5}{8} - \frac{ \sqrt{713} }{8} or t=- \frac{5}{8} + \frac{ \sqrt{713} }{8}
t=-3.96 or t=2.71
Since time cannot be negative, t=2.71 is the solution of our equation.

We can conclude that the ball will hit the ground after 2.71 seconds.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
At the time of her grandson's birth, a grandmother deposits $12,000.00 in an account that pays 2% compound monthly. What will be that value of the account at the child's twenty-first birthday, assuming that no other deposits or withdrawls are made during the period.
---
A(t) = P(1+(r/n))^(nt)
---
A(21) = 12000(1+(0.02/12))^(12*21)
---
A(21) = 12000(1.5214)
---
A(21) = #18,257.15

Food costs are expected to rise 6% each month for the next year. Which series correctly depicts the cost (to the nearest cent) f
alexira [117]
For this case we have the following equation:
 y = 150 * (1.06) ^ t
 For the first month we have:
 y = 150 * (1.06) ^ 1
 y = 159 $
 For the second month we have:
 y = 150 * (1.06) ^ 2
 y = 168.54 $
 For the third month we have:
 y = 150 * (1.06) ^ 1
 y = 178.65 $
 Answer:
 
d. $ 159.00 + $ 168.54 + $ 178.65
