Hello,

Let 's a the width,
b the heigth

2a+b=80==>b=80-2a

Area=A(a,b)=a*b=a*(80-2a)
=-2a²+80a
=-2(a²-2*20a+20²-20²)
=-2(a-20)² +800
Area is maxi if a=20 and area max=800

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The mathematical domain includes all real numbers, while the reasonable domain includes only real numbers greater than 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In the real world, length and width only make sense when they are positive. For that to be the case, the width must be greater than 2. There is nothing in the description that restricts the values to integers.

Masha is making a scale diagram of the front face of an aquarium. The face is shaped like a rectangle.
Marat540 [252]
Scale:
1 cm : 6 inches

---------------------------------
Length of the aquarium:
---------------------------------
5 feet = 5 x 12 = 60 inches
60 ÷ 6 = 10 
The length will be 10 cm on the scale drawing.

---------------------------------
Width of the aquarium:
---------------------------------
2 feet = 2 x 12 = 24 inches
24 ÷ 6 = 4 

The width will be 4 cm on the scale drawing.

---------------------------------
Find Perimeter:
---------------------------------
Perimeter = 2 (length + width)
Perimeter = 2( 10 + 4 )
Perimeter = 28 cm

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:  The perimeter of the scale drawing of the front face is 28 cm.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

maxonik [38]

Answer:

$13.20/hr

A faster way in which to do this is shown below:

Wages after a 10% increase = (1.10)($12/hr) = $13.20/hr
