The area is:
 A = x * y
 The perimeter is:
 P = 2x + 2y = 100
 We clear y:
 2y = 100-2x
 y = 50-x
 We write the area in terms of x:
 A (x) = x * (50-x)
 Rewriting:
 A (x) = 50x-x ^ 2
 Deriving:
 A '(x) = 50-2x
 We equal zero and clear x:
 50-2x = 0
 x = 50/2
 x = 25
 Then, the other dimension is given by:
 y = 50-x
 y = 50-25
 y = 25
 Therefore, the largest area is:
 A = (25) * (25)
 A = 625 feet ^ 2
 Answer:
 
the largest area you can enclose using the materials you have is:
 
A = 625 feet ^ 2

Triangle NLM is reflected over the line segment as shown, forming triangle ABC. Which congruency statement is correct? ΔNLM ≅ ΔC
algol13
<span>Given that triangle NLM is reflected over the line segment as shown, forming triangle ABC.

When a point is refrected across a line, the relative distance form the point to the line of refrection is preserved. That is the distance from the point to the line of refrection is equal to the distance of the image to the line of refrection.

Thus, from the figure, it can be seen the point B is of the same distance to the line of refrection as point M, so is point A to point L and point C to point N.

Thus, </span><span>ΔNLM is similar to </span><span><span>ΔCAB

Kendra charges $11 to shovel a driveway. She shoveled 4 driveways on Saturday and then some more on Sunday. She made $143 for th
White raven [17]

Let number of driveways , she shoveled on Sunday = x

And for 4 driveways , Kendra charges = 4*11=44

Therefore,

143 = 44 + 11x

And that's the model for the given situation .

Subtracting 44 from both sides,

143-44 = 11x

99 = 11x

Dividing both sides by 11

x = 9

Therefore she shoveled 9 driveways on Sunday .

A computer program contains one error. In order to find the error, we split the program into 6 blocks and test two of them, sele
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
There are \dbinom62 ways of selecting two of the six blocks at random. The probability that one of them contains an error is

\dfrac{\dbinom11\dbinom51}{\dbinom62}=\dfrac5{15}=\dfrac13

So X has probability mass function

f_X(x)=\begin{cases}\dfrac13&\text{for }x=1\\\\\dfrac23&\text{for }x=0\end{cases}

These are the only two cases since there is only one error known to exist in the code; any two blocks of code chosen at random must either contain the error or not.

The expected value of finding an error is then

\displaystyle\sum_{x=0}^1xf_X(x)=0\times\dfrac23+1\times\dfrac13=\dfrac13

Marine ecologists estimate the reproduction curve for swordfish in a fishing ground to be f(p) = −0.01p2 + 9p, where p and f(p)
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

The population that gives the maximum sustainable yield is 45000 swordfishes.

The maximum sustainable yield is 202500 swordfishes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be f(p) = -0.01\cdot p^{2}+9\cdot p, the maximum sustainable yield can be found by using first and second derivatives of the given function: (First and Second Derivative Tests)

First Derivative Test

f'(p) = -0.02\cdot p +9

Let equalize the resulting expression to zero and solve afterwards:

-0.02\cdot p + 9 = 0

p = 450

Second Derivative Test

f''(p) = -0.02

This means that result on previous part leads to an absolute maximum.

The population that gives the maximum sustainable yield is 45000 swordfishes.

The maximum sustainable yield is:

f(450) = -0.01\cdot (450)^{2}+9\cdot (450)

f(450) =2025

The maximum sustainable yield is 202500 swordfishes.

A bucket that has a mass of 30 kg when filled with sand needs to be lifted to the top of a 30 meter tall building. You have a ro
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

765 J

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Mass of bucket = 30 kg

Mass of rope = 0.3 kg/m

height of building= 30 meter

Now,

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the building = work done in lifting the rope + work done in lifting the sand

Or W = W1 + W2

Work done in lifting the rope is given as,

W1 = Force x displacement

W1 = (30,0)∫(0.2x .dx)

Integrating, we have;

W1 = [0.2x²/2] at boundary of 30 and 0

W1 = 0.1(30²)

W1 = 90 J

work done in lifting the sand is given as;

W2 = (30,0)∫(F .dx)

F = mx + c

Where, c = 30 - 15 = 15

m = (30 - 15)/(30 - 0)

m = 15/30 = 0.5

So,

F = 0.5x + 15

Thus,

W2 = (30,0)∫(0.5x + 15 .dx)

Integrating, we have;

W2 = (0.5x²/2) + 15x at boundary of 30 and 0

So,

W2 = (0.5 × 30²)/2) + 15(30)

W2 = 225 + 450

W2 = 675 J

Therefore,

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building,

W = 90 + 675

W = 765 J
