It is but it needs to be rearranged to x^2-2x+30
Answer:
$40
Step-by-step explanation:
25% is 1/4.
If 10 is 1/4 of the full amount, then you take 10 and multiply by 4 to get the full amount.
10 times 4 equals 40.
Suppose the length of the triangle is x, if the perimeter of the rectangle is 100 ft, the width of the rectangle will be (50-x) ft.
Area of rectangle will be:
A=length*width
A=x(50-x)
A=50x-x^2
at maximum area, dA/dx=0
thus
dA/dx=50-2x=0
solving for x we get
2x=50
x=25
thus for maximum area length=25 ft
the size of the width will be
50-x=50-25=25 ft
thus the maximum area will be:
25*25=625 sq. feet
