If x represents the width of the poster (including borders), the area of the finished poster can be written as
.. a = x*(390/(x -10) +8)
.. = 8x +390 +3900/(x -10)

Then the derivative with respect to x is
.. da/dx = 8 -3900/(x -10)^2
This is zero at the minimum area, where
.. x = √(3900/8) +10 ≈ 32.08 . . . . cm
The height is then
.. 390/(x -10) +8 = 8 +2√78 ≈ 25.66 . . . . cm

The poster with the smallest area is 32.08 cm wide by 25.66 cm tall.

_____
In these "border" problems, the smallest area will have the same overall dimension ratio that the borders have. Here, the poster is 10/8 = 1.25 times as wide as it is high.

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

-$0.26

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to determine the expected value of playing the game once

Expected value= [18/(18+18+2) x $5)]- [20/(18+18+2) x $5]

Expected value= ($18/38 x $5) - (20/38 x $5)

Expected value= ($2.37-$2.63)

Expected value= -$0.26

Therefore the expected value of playing the game once is -$0.26

HELP .-. A painter bought 16 gallons of paint, just to cover two rooms. One room is twice the size of the other room and require
givi [52]
The total number of gallons of paint needed for the big room is 3x and the number of gallons of paint needed for the small room is 2y. 
                                   3x + 2y = 16
Given the sizes of the room, the relation should be that,
                                    x = 2y
Solving the equation,
                                      3(2y) + 2y = 16
                                               y = 2
Therefore x is equal to 4 gallons. 
With the condition that only the bigger room is painted, the number of gallons of paint used should be 12 gallons and what is left should be 4 gallons.
