My friend has $672 to spend on a fence for her rectangular garden. She wants to use cedar fencing which costs $17/yard on one side, and cheaper metal fencing which costs $7/yard for the other three sides.

What are the dimensions of the garden with the largest area she can enclose?

Answers

Answer 1

The dimensions of the garden with the largest area she can enclose are given by 24*14 square yards.

The area (A) of the rectangle with length L and Width W is given by,

A=L*W

The maximum of [tex]y=ax^2+bx[/tex] occurs at x = -b/2a

Let the length and width of the garden be L and W respectively.

Now let my friend use cedar fencing for one width and cheaper metal fencing for rest sides.

Rate of cedar fencing is $17/yard

Then she has to pay for cedar fencing = 17W

rate of cheaper metal fencing is $7/yard

Then she has to pay for metal fencing = 7W+7*2L = 7W+14L

Then according to condition,

17W+7W+14L = 672

24W+14L = 672

12W+7L = 336

7L = 336-12W

L = (336-12W)/7

Then the area of the rectangular garden is given by,

A = L*W

[tex]A=\frac{336-12W}{7}\times W\\A=-\frac{12}{7}W^2+48W[/tex]

So here a = -12/7 and b = 48

Then maximum of W occurs at,

W = -48/(2*(-12/7)) = (48*7)/(2*12) = 336/24 = 14

Then maximum width = 14 yards

then length (L) = (336-12*14)/7 = 168/7 = 24 yards

Hence the dimensions with the leargest area she can enclose is given by = 24 * 14 square yards.

A tank weighs 5.6kg when it 1/4 filled with water.If it weighs 10.4kg when it is full ,what will be it's weight when it is empty.​

Answers

Answer:

4 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

........................

Answer:

4 kg

Explanation:

Let the mass of tank be 't' and water 'w'

First equation :              (when it is 1/4 filled with water)

[tex]\sf t + \frac{1}{4} w = 5.6[/tex]

Second equation :        (when it is filled fully with water)

[tex]\sf t +w = 10.4[/tex][tex]\sf w = 10.4 - t[/tex]

Insert second equation into first equation :

[tex]\rightarrow \sf t + \dfrac{1}{4} (10.4 - t) = 5.6[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf t - \dfrac{1}{4} t + 2.6 = 5.6[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{3}{4} t = 5.6 - 2.6[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{3}{4} t = 3[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf t = 4[/tex]

The tank weights 4 kg when it is empty.

use the point–slope formula to write an equation of the line that passes through(-5, -16 )and has a slope of m = 3 . Write the answer in slope–intercept form (if possible).

Answers

Answer:

y + 16 = 3(x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you write an equation in point-slope form, you only need two things: a point and a slope.

Given:

point: (-5, -16)slope (m): 3

The standard point-slope equation is

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

Plug in what you know.

y - (-16) = 3(x - (-5))

Simplify.

y + 16 = 3(x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x-int of any equation, you will need to replace the y with a 0 since when the x-int is when y is 0.

8x+2y = 4 ➨ 8x+2*0 = 4

Now I will do 2*0 which anything times 0 is equal to 0. And we are left with the equation of:

The ratio of 2:3 means we are dividing the line segment into 2+3=5 equal parts.

The horizontal distance between the two coordinates is 5.

The vertical distance between the two coordinates is 10.

Dividing both vertical and horizontal distance into five equal parts, we have a horizontal distance of 1 and a vertical distance of 2.

The cost of renting a car is $46/week plus $0.25/mile traveled during that week. An equation to represent the cost would be y=46+0.25x, where x is the number of miles traveled.



a. What is your cost if you travel 57 miles?



The cost is $ ____________.



b. If your cost was $65.00, how many miles were you charged for traveling?



You were charged for traveling ____________ miles.



c. Suppose you have a maximum of $100 to spend for the car rental. What would be the maximum number of miles you could travel?



The maximum number of miles you could travel is ____________ miles.

Answers

Answer:

A. $60.25

B. 76 miles

C. 216 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

x is miles

y is total amount spent

For A, 57 miles is the x value. Plug that in to x.

y= 46 + .25(57)

y= 60.25

For B, the total is the y. So plug 65 in for y.

65 = 46 + .25x   Subtract 46 from both sides

19 = .25x             Divide by .25

76 = x

For C, the maximum you can spend is $100. Plug that in for y.

100 = 46 + .25x   Subtract 46 from both sides

54 = .25x             Divide by .25

216 = x

The answer for part a is $60.25, for part b the answer is 76 miles, and for part c the answer is 216 miles.

What is a function?

It is defined as a special type of relationship, and they have a predefined domain and range according to the function every value in the domain is related to exactly one value in the range.

The equation to represent the cost would be y=46+0.25x

x is the number of miles.

a) What is your cost if you travel 57 miles?

Plug x = 57 in the above equation:

y = 46 + 0.25(57)

y = $60.25

b) If your cost was $65.00, how many miles were you charged for traveling?

Plug y = 65 in the equation:

65 = 46 + 0.25x

x = 76 miles

c) Suppose you have a maximum of $100 to spend for the car rental. What would be the maximum number of miles you could travel?

Plug y = 100 in the equation:

100 = 46 + 0.25x

x = 216 miles

Thus, the answer for part a is $60.25, for part b the answer is 76 miles, and for part c the answer is 216 miles.
