Answer:
$1118.88
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets start by finding all sides of the perimeter to get an accurate measure of the area.
We know the width is 14.8 feet, that means the opposite side also equals 14.8 feet.
Now the other two sides must sum to 50.4 (80-(14.8*2)) and be equal, so we can divide 50.4 by two to get 25.2 for the other two sides.
Now we can calculate area by multiplying one from each side:
Now to find the price of required sod, multiply the area by cost per square foot
Therefore it will cost 1118.88 dollars to cover the entire area in sod.

Answer:
a. dy/dx = -2/3
b. dy/dx = -28
Step-by-step explanation:
One way to do this is to assume that x and y are functions of something else, say "t", then differentiate with respect to that. If we write dx/dt = x' and dy/dt = y', then the required derivative is y'/x' = dy/dx.
a. x'·y^3 +x·(3y^2·y') = 0
y'/x' = -y^3/(3xy^2) = -y/(3x)
For the given point, this is ...
dy/dx = -2/3
___
b. 2x·x' +x^2·y' -2x'·y^3 -2x·(3y^2·y') + 0 = 2x' + 2y'
y'(x^2 -6xy^2 -2) = x'(2 -2x +2y^3)
y'/x' = 2(1 -x +y^3)/(x^2 +6xy^2 -2)
For the given point, this is ...
dy/dx = 2(1 -0 +27)/(0 +0 -2)
dy/dx = -28
_____
The attached graphs show these to be plausible values for the derivatives at the given points.
