Answer: a. 126.20 gallons.

b. 2740 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use unitary method in this question.

a) ∵ 310 miles can be covered by a car with the help of 15.5 gallons of gasoline

∴ 1 mile can be covered = $\frac{15.5}{310}$ gallons

∴2524 miles can be covered = $\frac{15.5}{310}(2524) gallons$

= 126.20 gallons

b). ∵ With 15.5 gallons of gasoline car can be driven = 310 miles

∴ With 1 gallon of gasoline car can go = 310/15.5 miles

∴ With 137 gallons can can go = (310×137)/15.5 miles

= 2740 miles.

Peter has 3200 yards of fencing to enclose a rectangular area. Find the dimensions of the rectangle that maximize the enclosed a

salantis [7]

Answer:

$A = 640000\,yd^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression for the rectangular area and perimeter are, respectively:

$A (x,y) = x\cdot y$

$3200\,yd = 2\cdot (x+y)$

After some algebraic manipulation, area expression can be reduce to an one-variable form:

$y = 1600 -x$

$A (x) = x\cdot (1600-x)$

The first derivative of the previous equation is:

$\frac{dA}{dx}= 1600-2\cdot x$

Let the expression be equalized to zero:

$1600-2\cdot x=0$

$x = 800$

The second derivative is:

$\frac{d^{2}A}{dx^{2}} = -2$

According to the Second Derivative Test, the critical value found in previous steps is a maximum. Then:

$y = 800$

The maximum area is:

$A = (800\,yd)\cdot (800\,yd)$

$A = 640000\,yd^{2}$

Tresset [83]

$\sf a=\pi r^2s\times360\\Divide\ by\ \pi r^2\times360\\ \frac{a}{\pi r^2\times360}= \frac{\pi r^2s\times360}{\pi r^2\times360}\\ \frac{a}{\pi r^2\times360}=s\\\\{\boxed{\sf s=\frac{a}{\pi r^2\times360}}$
