Mathematics

3 0

Answer:

There are two real solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are only three possible solutions for the discriminant of a quadratic equation:

1. D < 0

In this case there are no real solutions. The graph does NOT intersect with the x-axis.

2. D = 0

In this case there is exactly one real solution. The graph touches the x-axis in one point, which is called the Top.

3. D > 0

In this case there are two real solutions. The graph intersects the x-axis in two points.

Abc daycare wants to build a fence to enclose a rectangular playground. the area of the playground is 910 square feet. the fence
Tatiana [17]
Given that <span>the area of the playground is 910 square feet, let the length of the playground be x, then the width of the playground is given by \frac{910}{x}

</span>Given that <span>the fence along three of the sides costs $5 per foot and </span>the fence along the fourth side, which will be made of brick, costs $15 per foot. <span>Let the side with the brick fence be the side which measures x feet.
</span>
Then the cost for fencing the entire playground is given by

C=5\left( \frac{910}{x} \right)+5x+5\left( \frac{910}{x} \right)+15x= \frac{9100}{x} +20x

For, minimum cost,

\frac{dC}{dx} =0 \\  \\ \Rightarrow- \frac{9100}{x^2} +20=0 \\  \\ \Rightarrow20x^2-9100=0 \\  \\ \Rightarrow x^2-455=0 \\  \\ \Rightarrow x=\pm\sqrt{455}

But x can't be negative.

Therefore, <span>the length of the brick fence that will minimize the cost of enclosing the playground is 21.33 feet.</span>
