Answer:

The temperature at 9AM = 75°F

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider D(t) be the temperature in Fahrenheit at time t, where t is measured in hours since midnight. It knows when the maximum temperature occurs. Then it can create a model using a cosine curve.

Vertical shift, D = 85°F

Amplitude, A = (105-85)°F = 20°F

Horizontal stretch factor, B = 2π/24 = π/12

Horizontal shift = -(12+5) = -17

Using the information, we have this model

D(t) = 20cos [π/12(t-17)] + 85

D(9) = 20cos [π/12(9-17)] + 85

       = 20cos [-2π/3] + 85

       = -20 x 1/2 + 85

       = 75°

A farmer with 950 ft of fencing wants to enclose a rectangular area and then divide it into four pens with fencing parallel to o
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

22,562.5 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest possible area will be obtained when half the fencing is used for the long side of the 4 pens, so the dimension in that direction is (950 ft)/(2·2) = 237.5 ft.

The other half of the fencing will be used for the 2 ends and 3 partitions, each of which will be (950 ft)/(2·5) = 95 ft.

Then the overall area of the 4 pens is ...

... (237.5 ft)(95 ft) = 22,562.5 ft²

_____

<em>General Solution</em>

Suppose L is the length of fence available, and x is the length of the long side of the enclosed area. For n pens, the enclosed area will be ...

... A = x(L-2x)/(n+1)

For constant values of A, L, n, this describes a downward-opening parabola with zeros at x=0 and x=L/2. The vertex of the parabola (point of maximum area) will be halfway between these zeros, at x = (0 + L/2)/2 = L/4. That is, half the available fence is used in each of the orthogonal directions.

Note that adding partitions in the other direction replaces the 2 in the equation with (m+1), where m is the number of pens between the sides of length x. That is, if there are 4 pens in one direction by 3 pens in the other direction, the area will be

... A = x(L -(3+1)x)/(4+1)

and, once again, we find that half the fence is used in each of the orthogonal directions when we maximize the overall area.
