A homeowner has $360 to spend on building a fence around a rectangular garden. Three sides of the fence will be constructed with wire fencing at a cost of $2 per foot. The fourth side is to be constructed with wood fencing at a cost of $6 per foot. Find the dimensions of the rectangle that will maximize the area of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The width is 22.5 feet and the length 45 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l represent the length of the rectangle and  w represent the width of the rectangle. The cost of the fence (C) is:

C = 2l + 2w + 2l + 6w

C = 4l + 8w

360 = 4l + 8w

360 = 4(l + 2w)

90 = l + 2w

l = 90 - 2w

Area (A) of rectangle = length * width

A = l * w

Put l = 90 - 2w

A = (90 - 2w)w

A = 90w - 2w²

The maximum area is at A' = 0, hence:

Differentiating gives:

A' = 90 - 4w

Put A' = 0

0 = 90 - 4w

4w = 90

w = 22.5 feet

l = 90 - 2w = 90 - 2(22.5) = 45 feet

Hence the width is 22.5 feet and the length 45 feet.

Divide each side by 99

8613 / 99 = 99 w /99

87 = w

The width is 87 cm

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The area of a rectangular painting=8613 cm^2

Length of painting=99cm

Solution

Area of the rectangular painting=8613

Length×width=8613

99×width=8613

Width=8613/99

Width =87cm

A. because it is the only one that makes sense, the unit rate is where the second quantity is one unit: etc. 1 minute=60 seconds1 hour=60 minutes (or) 3600 seconds1 day=24 hours (or) 1440 minutes.

A unit rate is a rate in which  neither of the quantities is 1

What is unitary Method?

The unitary technique involves first determining the value of a single unit,  followed by the value of the necessary number of units.

For example, Let's say Ram spends 36 Rs. for a dozen (12) bananas.

12 bananas will set you back 36 Rs. 1 banana costs 36 x 12 = 3 Rupees.

As a result, one banana costs three rupees. Let's say we need to calculate the price of 15 bananas.

This may be done as follows: 15 bananas cost 3 rupees each; 15 units cost 45 rupees.

Given:

A unit rate is a rate in which.....

Now, if we find the unit rate of any quantity it tells that the price of 1 quantity.

It does not tell about the amount of quantity.
