Teachers often all this problem a donut problem because it’s like the donut hole getting cut out of the middle. The way that you solve this is to find the area of the whole yard and subtract the area of the fountain. Since they are rectangles we’re going to use A = LW
Area of yard - Area of fountain
A = (8x)(9x) - (2x)(5x)
A = 72 x^2. - 10 x^2
A 62 x^2

Answer:

Area of rectangle(A) is given by:

A = lw

where,

l is the length and w is the width of the rectangle

As per the statement:

a family is building a rectangular fountain in the backyard. the yard is rectangular and measures 8x by 9x

⇒\text{Area of yard} = 8x \cdot 9x = 72x^2

It is also given that:

The fountain is going to measure 2x by 5x.

\text{Area of fountain} = 2x \cdot 5x = 10x^2

We have to find the area of the remaining yard.

\text{Remaining area of yard} = \text{Area of yard} -\text{Area of the fountain built}

⇒\text{Remaining area of yard} = 72x^2-10x^2 = 62x^2 [Combine like term]

Therefore, the area of the remaining yard is, 62x^2

A linear congruence generator is an algorithm that returns a sequence of pseudorandom numbers computed using discontinuous piecewise linear equations. This method is one of the oldest and best-known pseudorandom number generator algorithms.

The linear congruential generator (LCG) is a pseudorandom number generator (PRNG ) is a class of algorithms. Random number generation plays an important role in many applications, from cryptography to Monte Carlo methods.

A rectangular tank that is 2048 ft cubed with a square base and open top is to be constructed of sheet steel of a given thicknes
ira [324]

Answer:

The box should have base 16ft by 16ft and height 8ft Therefore,dimensions are 16 ft by 16 ft by 8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given the volume of the tank as, 2048 cubic feet.

Form minimum weight, the surface area must be minimum.

Let the height be h and the lengths be x

the volume will be: V=x²h then substitute the value of volume, we have

2048=hx²

hence

h=2048/x²

Since the amount of material used is directly proportional to the surface area, then the material needs to be minimized by minimizing the surface area.

The surface area of the box described is

A=x²+4xh

Then substitute h into the Area equation we have

A= x² + 4x(2048/x²)

A= x² + 8192/x

We want to minimize

A

dA/dx = -8192/x² + 2 x= 0 for max or min

when dA/dx=0

dA/dx= 2x-8192/x²=0

2x=8192/x²

Hence

2x³=8192

x³=4096

x=₃√(4096)

X=16ft

Then h=2048/x²

h=2048/16²

h=8ft

The box should have base 16ft by 16ft and height 8ft

Hence the dimensions are 16 ft by 16 ft by 8 ft
