Farmer Ed has 7000 meters of fencing and wants to enclose a rectangular plot that borders on a river. If farmer Ed does not fence the side along the river, what is the largest are that can be enclosed? ...?
Let
x--------> the length side of the rectangular plot (assume side along the river)
y------> the width side of the rectangular plot
we know that
the perimeter of the rectangular plot is equal to
[tex]P=x+2y[/tex]
[tex]P=7,000\ m[/tex]
so
[tex]7,000=x+2y[/tex]
Clear variable y
[tex]y=(7,000-x)/2[/tex] -------> equation [tex]1[/tex]
The area of the rectangular plot is
[tex]A=x*y[/tex] ------> equation [tex]2[/tex]
substitute equation [tex]1[/tex] in equation [tex]2[/tex]
[tex]A=x*[(7,000-x)/2][/tex]
[tex]A=x*[(7,000-x)/2]\\\\ A=3,500x-0.5x^{2}[/tex]
we know that
To find the larger area that can be enclosed------> Find the vertex of the quadratic equation
The quadratic equation is a vertical parabola open down
so
the vertex is a maximum
using a graphing tool
see the attached figure
the vertex is the point [tex](3,500,6,125,000)[/tex]
that means
For [tex]x=3,500\ m[/tex]
the largest area is [tex]6,125,000\ m^{2}[/tex]
Find the value of y
[tex]y=(7,000-3,500)/2=1,750\ m[/tex]
the dimensions of the rectangular plot are
[tex]Length=3,500\ m\\Width=1,750\ m[/tex]
therefore
the answer is
The largest area that can be enclosed is [tex]6,125,000\ m^{2}[/tex]

Write the following comparison as a ratio reduced to lowest terms.
10 nickels to 11 dimes
To find the simplified ratio of 10 nickels to 11 dimes, convert the counts into their monetary values, create a ratio, and reduce it. The end result is a simplified ratio of 5:11, as 10 nickels are worth 50 cents and 11 dimes are worth 110 cents.
The question asks for a ratio to be written and reduced to its lowest terms. This involves dividing both quantities by the same number until they cannot be divided further without resulting in a fraction. To write the comparison of 10 nickels to 11 dimes as a ratio reduced to lowest terms, we consider the value of each coin type. A nickel is worth 5 cents, and a dime is worth 10 cents. Therefore, 10 nickels have a value of 10 x 5 = 50 cents, and 11 dimes have a value of 11 x 10 = 110 cents.
Creating a ratio of these values, we get 50:110. Since both numbers are divisible by 10, we can simplify the ratio by dividing each side by 10, which gives us 5:11. This ratio is already in its simplest form, as 5 and 11 have no common divisor other than 1.
The simplified ratio of the value of 10 nickels to 11 dimes is 5:11.
How do you completely factor 2x^3 + 16y^3
why wouldn't the man stand in line to step on the scale ?
answer ?
The man wouldn't stand in line to step on the scale because the scale measures weight, not mass. When you stand on a bathroom scale, it measures the force exerted on it due to your weight. Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object, while mass is the amount of matter in an object.
Explanation:The man wouldn't stand in line to step on the scale because the scale measures weight, not mass. When you stand on a bathroom scale, it measures the force exerted on it due to your weight. Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object, while mass is the amount of matter in an object. So, if the man were on the Moon or in an elevator accelerating, the scale reading would be different because the force of gravity on him would be different, but his mass would remain the same.

To Prove: [tex]\Delta[/tex]ABC is an isosceles triangle.
Construction: Construct a perpendicular bisector from point B to Line segment AC.
Consider triangle BAD and BCD,
[tex]\angle BAC = \angle ACB[/tex] (given)
[tex]\angle BDA = \angle BDC = 90^\circ[/tex]
(By the definition of a perpendicular bisector)
[tex]AD=DC[/tex] (By the definition of a perpendicular bisector)
Therefore, [tex]\Delta ABD \cong \Delta BDC[/tex] by Angle Side Angle(ASA) Postulate.
Line segment AB is congruent to Line segment BC because corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.(CPCTC)
Final answer:
By constructing a perpendicular bisector from B to AC in triangle ABC, we use the RHS Congruence rule and CPCTC to prove that AB is congruent to BC, thus showing that triangle ABC is isosceles.
Explanation:
To prove that ∆ABC is an isosceles triangle because base ∠BAC and ∠ACB are congruent, we start by constructing a perpendicular bisector from point B to line segment AC and labeling the intersection as point D. By definition, m∠BDA and m∠BDC are 90°, and ∠BDA is congruent to ∠BDC. Also, AD is congruent to DC because D is the midpoint of AC. Therefore, using the Right Angle Hypotenuse Side (RHS) Congruence rule, ∆BAD is congruent to ∆BCD, as they have a right angle, a congruent side (BD), and another congruent side (AD = DC).
Since the triangles ∆BAD and ∆BCD are congruent, it follows that line segment AB is congruent to line segment BC, by Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent (CPCTC). Therefore, by the definition of an isosceles triangle, which states that at least two sides are congruent, ∆ABC is isosceles.

11-8 The Choi Company's next expected dividend, D1, is $3.18; its growth rate is 6 percent; and its stock currently sells for $36. New stock can be sold to net the firm $32.4 per share.
a. What is Choi's percentage flotation cost, F?
b. What is Choi's cost of new common stock, Re ?
Choi's percentage flotation cost is 10%, and the cost of new common stock is 15.81%, calculated using the difference in current stock price and net price per share for the flotation cost, and the dividend discount model for the cost of new common stock.
Explanation:Calculating Choi's Flotation Cost and Cost of New Common Stock
The percentage flotation cost of Choi Company's new stock is 90.28% and the cost of new common stock is 15.94%.
To calculate Choi's percentage flotation cost (F), we start by looking at the difference between the price the stock currently sells for and the net amount the firm receives when selling new stock. The current stock price is $36, and the firm can net $32.4 per share from selling new stock, so the flotation cost per share is $36 - $32.4 = $3.6 per share. To find the percentage flotation cost, we divide this amount by the market price of the stock:
F = Flotation cost per share / Current stock price = $3.6 / $36 = 0.10 or 10%
Next, to calculate Choi's cost of new common stock (Re), we use the dividend discount model (DDM), which claims that the price of a stock is the present value of all future dividends. The expected dividend, D1, is $3.18 and the growth rate, g, is 6%. The cost of new common stock, taking into account the flotation cost, is calculated using the formula:
Re = (D1 / Net price per share) + g = ($3.18 / $32.4) + 0.06 = 0.0981 + 0.06 = 0.1581 or 15.81%

Sandy walks 26 miles in a month. how many miles will she have walked in 2 years
Final answer:
Sandy walks 312 miles in a year, so over 2 years, she would walk 624 miles. As a reference point, a marathon runner with an average speed of 9.5 mi/h would take approximately 2.76 hours to run a 26.22 mi marathon.
Explanation:
To calculate how many miles Sandy will walk in 2 years, we must first determine how many miles she walks in one year and then multiply that by 2 since there are two years. Sandy walks 26 miles in a month. Therefore, to find out how many miles she walks in a year, we use the following steps:
Multiply the monthly miles by the number of months in a year (26 miles per month * 12 months = 312 miles).
To find out the mileage for 2 years, multiply the yearly mileage by the number of years (312 miles per year * 2 years = 624 miles).
Therefore, Sandy will have walked 624 miles in 2 years.
If a marathon runner averages 9.5 mi/h, the calculation to determine how long it takes him or her to run a 26.22 mi marathon is as follows:
Divide the marathon distance by the average speed (26.22 mi / 9.5 mi/h).
The result gives us approximately 2.76 hours, which is the time it takes to complete the marathon
the principal will randomly choose 6 students from a large school to represent the school in a newspaper photograph. the probability that a chose student is an athlete is 30%. (assume that this doesn't change) What is the probability that 4 athletes are chosen? ...?
To find the probability of choosing exactly 4 athletes from 6 students when the chance of any student being an athlete is 30%, we use the binomial probability formula considering a fixed number of trials, a binary outcome, a constant probability, and independent trials.
Explanation:The question asks about the probability of choosing 4 athletes out of 6 students from a school, given that each student has a 30% chance of being an athlete. We can treat this as a binomial probability problem because we have a fixed number of trials (six students chosen), two possible outcomes (athlete or not), a constant probability of success (30% chance the student is an athlete), and independence between trials.
To calculate the probability of exactly 4 athletes being chosen, we use the binomial probability formula:
P(X = k) = C(n, k) * [tex]p^k[/tex] * [tex](1-p)^(n-k)[/tex]
Where:
n is the number of trials (6 students)k is the number of successful trials (4 athletes)p is the probability of success on a single trial (30% or 0.3)C(n, k) is the combination of n items taken k at a timeUsing these values, we find the probability that 4 out of 6 students chosen are athletes.
