A rectangular area is to be enclosed and divided into thirds. The family has $880 to spend for the fencing material. The outside fence costs $10 per foot installed, and the dividers cost $20 per foot installed. What are the dimensions that will maximize the area enclosed

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

\W = Width

L = Length

Draw rectangle W x L

Divde rectangle into thirds with two lines parallel with width.

Outside fance perimeter = 2 W + 2 L

Inside fance length = 2 W

Total cost :

( 2 W + 2 L ) * 10 $ + 2 W * 20 $ = 400 $

( 2 W + 2 L ) * 10 + 2 W * 20 = 400

20 W + 20 L + 40 W = 400

60 W + 20 L = 400 Divide both sides by 20

60 W / 20 + 20 L / 20 = 400 / 20

3 W + L = 20 Subtract 3 W to both sides

3 W + L - 3 W = 20 - 3 W

L = 20 - 3W

Area :

A = W * L =

W * ( 20 - 3W ) =

20 W - 3 W ^ 2

First derivation :

dA / dW = 20 - 3 * 2 * W = 20 - 6 W

If first derivation = 0 a function has a local maximum or a local minimum.

dA / dW = 0

20 - 6 W = 0 Add 6 W to both sides

20 - 6 W + 6 W = 0 + 6 W

20 = 6 W Divide both sides by 6

20 / 6 = 6 W / 6

20 / 6 = W

2 * 10 / ( 2 * 3 ) = W

10 / 3 = W

W = 10 / 3 ft

If second derivative < 0 then function has a maximum.

If second derivative > 0 then function has a mimum.

In this case second derivative = - 6

Second derivative < 0 so function has a maximum.

For W = 10 / 3 ft

L = 20 - 3W = 20 - 3 * 10 / 3 = 20 - 10 = 10 ft

Amax = W * L = 10 / 3 * 10 = 100 / 3 ft ^2

Answer: M= 2 C= 4 (0,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula- y=mx+c where m is the gradient and c is the y intercept

In y=2x + 4,

2 is in the place of m and 4 is in the place of c. So, m= 2 and c=4. The coordinates of the y intercept would be (0,4)

the sum of the reversed number and the original number is 154, find the original number, if the ones digit in it is 2 less than the tens digit

Answers

Answer:  86

==========================================================

Explanation:

For the original two digit number, we have:

x = tens digity = units digit (aka ones digit)

The original number is 10x+y. For instance, if x = 5 and y = 7, then we have 10x+y = 10*5+7 = 57.

This original number 10x+y swaps its digits to 10y+x. Then we add up the two expressions:

(original)+(swapped) = (10x+y)+(10y+x) = 11x+11y = 11(x+y)

This sum is stated to be 154

11(x+y) = 154

x+y = 154/11

x+y = 14

Then we're told that "the ones digit in it (the original number) is 2 less than the tens digit". Meaning that y = x-2 is another equation we can use. We'll plug this into the previous equation we found and solve for x

x+y = 14

x+x-2 = 14 ... replace y with x-2

2x-2 = 14

2x = 14+2

2x = 16

x = 16/2

x = 8 is the tens digit of the original number

y = x-2

y = 8-2

y = 6 is the units digit of the original number

The original number is 10x+y = 10*8+6 = 86

As a check, adding 86+68 = 154 which confirms our answer.

Answer: Malik uses an app on his phone to track how far he rides his bike. Yesterday, he biked a new trail in a total of 57.5 minutes, including a 2.5-minute water break. The app notified Malik that he rode 10 miles. What was Malik's average pace while biking?

Answer:

5.5 Minutes per mile

Step-by-step explanation:

Malik biked 10 miles at a pace of p minutes per mile. His water break added 2.5 minutes to his time. It took him a total of 57.5 minutes to complete the trail. This equation represents the situation.

10p      time spent biking

+

2.5 time for water break

=

57.5  total time

Now, solve the equation for p.

10p+2.5

= 57.5

10p

= 55 Subtract 2.5 from both sides

p

= 5.5 Divide both sides by 10

Malik's average pace was 5.5 minutes per mile.

Ms. Henderson's plant is 6 1/3 inches tall. It is 1 5/6 inches taller than Megan's plant.
How tall is Megan's plant?
Enter your answer as a simplified mixed number by filling in the boxes.

Answers

Answer:

4 1/2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi! I hope this helps!:

Since Ms. Henderson's plant is 6 1/3, all we need to do is subtract 1 5/6 from it! We do this because it says, "1 5/6 inches taller than Megan's plant".

For the next steps, you can change the mixed numbers into decimals or into improper fractions! 6 1/3 would be 19/3. 1 5/6 would be 11/6. You can find a common denominator for both. I would make 19/3 to 38/6.

Lastly, you need to subtract and make it into simplest form! 38/6 - 11/6 = 27/6.

You could simplify it to 9/3, 4.5, or 4 1/2 inches.
