The number of board feet in a 16 foot long tree is approximated by the model F(d) = 0.77d^2 -- 1.32d -- 9.31 where F is the numb

er of board feet and d is the diameter (in inches) of the log. What diameter tree will produce the minimum number of board feet?

we are given

F(d)=0.77d^2-1.32d-9.31

where

F is the number of board feet

d is the diameter (in inches) of the log

Since, we have to minimize F

so, firstly we will find it's derivative

F'(d)=0.77\times 2d-1.32\times 1-0

F'(d)=1.54d-1.32

now, we can set it to 0

and then we can solve for d

F'(d)=1.54d-1.32=0

1.54d-1.32=0

so, we get diameter as

d=\frac{6}{7}inch..............Answer

Solve for w.<br><br> 5w + 9z = 2z + 3w<br><br> w = z<br> w = z<br> w = –2z<br> w = –7z
Semenov [28]

5w + 9z = 2z + 3w

Move terms with w to the left - subtract 3w from both sides

2w + 9z = 2z

Subtract 9z from both sides

2w = -7z

Divide both sides by 2

w = \frac{-7}{2}z
