A piece of wire 23 m long is cut into two pieces. One piece is bent into a square and the other is bent into an equilateral triangle.

Required:
a. How much wire must be used for the square in order to maximize the total area?
b. How much wire must be used for the square in order to minimize the total area?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

wire for square to maximize total area = 23 m

Wire to minimize total area = 2.019 m

Step-by-step explanation:

For the square, let's say the total length of the square is "y" m.

Thus, length of one side is = y/4

And area of the square = (y/4) = y²/16

Since the wire is 23 m, then total length of equilateral triangle is; 23 - y.

Thus, length of one side of equilateral triangle = (23 - y)/3

Using trigonometric ratio, we can find the height of the triangle and thus area.

Area of triangle = (√3)/4) × ((23 - y)/3)²

Area of triangle = (√3)/36)(23 - y)²

So, total area of square and triangle is;

A_total = (y²/16) + (√3)/36)(23 - y)²

Now, extremizing this function by derivatives, we have;

dA/dy = (y/8) - (√3)/18)(23 - y)

d²A/dy² = ⅛ + (√3)/18)

So, d²A/dy² > 0

Now,let's find the maximum or minimum of the function.

So, we equate dA/dy to zero.

Thus;

(y/8) - (√3)/18)(23 - y) = 0

y/8 = (√3)/18)(23 - y)

(y/8) + (√3)/18)y = 23((√3)/18)

Multiply through by 8 to give;

y + 0.0962y = 2.2132

1.0962y = 2.2132

y = 2.2132/1.0962

y = 2.019 m

2.019 will be a minimum because d²A/dy² > 0

The maximum will occur at a boundary of the allowed values. Thus, the absolute maximum is for y = 23.

Note that a square has more area than a triangle and as such it is normal for the square to get the largest area over the triangle and therefore we will have to use all of the wire to construct the square.

rw/6+y=f And I have to solve for y so I’m confused on how to isolate it.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is

[tex]y = \frac{rw - 6f}{f} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{rw}{6 + y} = f[/tex]

Cross multiply

We have

f(6 + y) = rw

6f + fy = rw

Move 6f to the right side of the equation to make fy stand alone

That's

fy = rw - 6f

Divide both sides by f to isolate y

That's

[tex] \frac{fy}{f} = \frac{rw - 6f}{f} [/tex]

We have the final answer as

[tex]y = \frac{rw - 6f}{f} [/tex]

The number of customers that visit a local small business is 51,200 and has been continuously declining at a rate of 3.8% each year. What is the approximate number of
customers that visit the business in 14 years?

Answers

Answer:

Final amount of customers =30141.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of customer remaining

A= p(1-r/n)^(nt)

P= initial amount of customers

R= rate but it's a negative rate

N= number of times

T= number of years

A= final amount of customers

A= p(1-r/n)^(nt)

A= 51200(1-0.038/14)^(14*14)

A= 51200(1-0.0027)^196

A= 51200(0.9973)^196

A= 51200(0.5887)

A= 30141.44

What are the subsets of 5564

Answers

Answer:

It will be  in the total of 2 subsets.

Step-by-step explanation:

The only subsets of the set containing 5564 is the empty set and the set {5564}.

5564 belongs to the set of real numbers, the set of natural numbers, the set of integers, the set of whole numbers and the set of rational numbers.

Answer:

5564 belongs to the following subsets of real numbers:

real numbers

rational numbers

integers

whole numbers

natural numbers (counting numbers)

----

You can keep on going. You can even say this number belongs to the set of even integers.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are looking for what subsets of the real numbers that 5564 belong to, then there is a lot of real number subsets to which this number can belong.

This number doesn't have an imaginary part so it's it a number.

We don't have to say it is complex (though it is), because we are looking at subsets of real numbers, not subsets of complex numbers (to which complex numbers are a subset of itself).

So the real numbers are divided into rational versus irrational.

The definition of rational numbers is any number that can be written as a fraction where the top and bottom are integers (of course the bottom integer cannot be 0). -(I will define integers in a second.)

Irrational numbers is any real number that isn't rational.

So since 5564 can be written as 5564/1, then it is rational.

A subset of rational numbers is integers (integers are in consequence also a subset of real numbers since rational numbers are a subset of real numbers).

Integers are numbers you count with, the opposite of those numbers you count with, or 0.

You can count to 5564 so 5564 can be further categorized as real rational integer.

Another subset of real numbers is whole numbers. The whole numbers is just the counting numbers and 0. Again since you count to 5564, then it is a whole number.

The natural numbers (counting numbers) is a subset of real numbers. Again, since 5564 can be counted to, it is a natural number.

Find the limit: [tex]\lim_{a x \to 0} \frac{(x + ax)^{2}-2(x + ax) + 1 - (x^{2} - 2x + 1)}{ax}[/tex]

Answers

I'll let h = ax, so the limit is

[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{(x+h)^2-2(x+h)+1-(x^2-2x+1)}h[/tex]

i.e. the derivative of [tex]x^2-2x+1[/tex].

Expand the numerator to see several terms that get eliminated:

[tex](x+h)^2-2(x+h)+1-(x^2-2x+1)=x^2+2xh+h^2-2x-2h+1-x^2+2x-1=2xh+h^2-2h[/tex]

So we have

[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{2xh+h^2-2h}h[/tex]

Since h ≠ 0 (because it is approaching 0 but never actually reaching 0), we can cancel the factor of h in both numerator and denominator, then plug in h = 0:

[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}(2x+h-2)=\boxed{2x-2}[/tex]

Answer:

2x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

lim ax goes to 0   ( x+ ax)^2 -2 ( x+ax) +1 - ( x^2 -2x+1)

                              --------------------------------------------------

                                                    ax

Simplify the numerator  by foiling the first term and distributing the minus signs

 x^2+ 2ax^2 + a^2 x^2 -2x-2ax +1 -  x^2 +2x-1

 --------------------------------------------------

                   ax

Combine like terms

2ax^2 + a^2 x^2 -2ax  

 --------------------------------------------------

                   ax

Factor out ax

ax( 2x + ax -2)

----------------------

     ax

Cancel ax

2x + ax -2

Now take the limit

lim ax goes to 0  ( 2x + ax -2)

a
XI- (x + 4) - 52
b
X + (x + 4) - 52
X(X + 4) - 52
x(x - 4) - 52

Answers

Answer:

x+(x+4)=52

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's name the smaller number x.

The greater number would then be (x+4).

The sum of two numbers means we are adding them together.

The equation we could then set up would be:

x+(x+4)=52

Now we can solve the equation to find the two numbers if needed.

Here is how:

x+x+4=52

Combine like terms.

2x+4=52

Subtract 4 from both sides.

2x=48

Divide both sides by 2

x=24

The smaller number is 24.

24+4=28

The larger number is 28.

We are going to fence in a rectangular field. If we look at the field from above the cost of the vertical sides are $10/f t, the cost of the bottom is $2/f t and the cost of the top is $7/f t. If we have 700 determine the dimensions of the field that will maximize the enclosed area.

Answers

Answer:

Dimensions are 350/9 ft and 17.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the cost per ft of all the 4 sides. Let the horizontal be x and the vertical be y.

Now, we will set up the constraint and equation that we are being asked to maximize.

Thus;

700 = 10y + 10y + 7x + 2x

700 = 20y + 9x

Maiking y the subject, we have;

y = (700 - 9x)/20

y = 35 - 9x/20

Now,area of a rectangle is: A = xy

Thus, A = x(35 - 9x/20))

A = 35x - 9x²/20

We can get the critical points by finding the derivatives and Equating to zero

Thus;

dA/dx = 35 - 0.9x

At dA/dx = 0,we have; x = 350/9

At d²A/dx², we have;

d²A/dx² = -0.9

This is negative, thus we will disregard and use the one gotten from the first derivative.

Thus, we will use x = 350/9 ft

Plugging this into the equation y = 35 - 9x/20, we have;

y = 35 - ((9 × 350/9)/20)

y = 17.5 ft

The dimensions of the field that will maximize the enclosed area are 350/9 ft and 17.5 ft and this can be determined by forming the linear equation.

Given :

We are going to fence in a rectangular field. The cost of the vertical sides is $10/ft, the cost of the bottom is $2/ft and the cost of the top is $7/ft.

Let 'x' be vertical, and 'y' be horizontal. So, the linear equation becomes:

700 = 10y + 10y + 7x + 2x

Simplify the above expression.

700 = 20y + 9x

Now, solve the above equation for 'y'.

[tex]\rm y = \dfrac{700-9x}{20}[/tex]    --- (1)

Now, the formula of the area of the rectangle is:

A = xy

Now, substitute the value of 'y' in the above formula.

[tex]\rm A = x \times \dfrac{700-9x}{20}[/tex]

[tex]\rm A = 35x -\dfrac{9x^2}{20}[/tex]  

Now, differentiate the above equation with respect to 'x' and then equate to 0.

[tex]\rm \dfrac{dA}{dx}=35-0.9x[/tex]

Now, equate the above equation to zero.

35 - 0.9x = 0

x = 350/9

Now, substitute the value of 'x' in equation (1).

[tex]\rm y = \dfrac{700-9\times \dfrac{350}{9}}{20}[/tex]

y = 17.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the radius of the sphere is r. The surface area of a sphere is:

Surface area = 4πr².

There is a 4% error in the measurement of the radius, therefore the radius being measured = (100% - 4%)r = (96%)r = 0.96r

The surface area as a result of error is:

Surface area after measurement = 4π(0.96r)² = 3.6864πr²

The percentage error is the ratio of the difference between the actual and measured value to the measured value. It is given as:

[tex]Percent\ error =\frac{Actual\ area-Measured\ area}{Measured \ area}*100\%\\ \\Percent\ error =\frac{4\pi r^2-3.6864\pi r^2}{3.6864\pi r^2}*100\%\\ \\Percent\ error =\frac{0.3136\pi r^2}{3.6864\pi r^2}*100\%\\ \\Percent\ error =0.0851*100\%\\\\Percent\ error =8.51\%[/tex]
