$1.80 is the cost for 3/4 of a pound of apples. If you divide 1.5 over 2, it would be 3/4, which means you will divide the price too, 3.60/2 = $1.80

Find the length and width of a rectangle that has the given area and a minimum perimeter. Area: 162 square feet
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The width and length of rectangle is 12.728 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the rectangle = L

let the width of the rectangle = W

The subjective function is given by;

F(p) = 2(L + W)

F = 2L + 2W

Area of the rectangle is given by;

A = LW

LW = 162 ft²

L = 162 / W

Substitute in the value of L into subjective function;

f = 2l + 2w\\\\f = 2(\frac{162}{w} )+2w\\\\f = \frac{324}{w} + 2w\\\\\frac{df}{dw} = \frac{-324}{w^2} +2\\\\

Take the second derivative of the function, to check if it will given a minimum perimeter

\frac{d^2f}{dw^2}= \frac{648}{w^3} \\\\Thus, \frac{d^2f}{dw^2}>0, \ since,\frac{648}{w^3} >0 \ (minimum \ function \ verified)

Determine the critical points of the first derivative;

df/dw = 0

\frac{-324}{w^2} +2 = 0\\\\-324 + 2w^2=0\\\\2w^2 = 324\\\\w^2 = \frac{324}{2} \\\\w^2 = 162\\\\w= \sqrt{162}\\\\w = 12.728 \ m

L = 162 / 12.728

L = 12.728 m

Therefore, the width and length of rectangle is 12.728 m

Can anyone explain how to expand and simplify 3(2a+5) +5 (a-2)
Step2247 [10]
Take the first bracket and it's multiplication, 3(2a+5)
You expand my multiplying everything inside the bracket by the number outside.
3*2a = 6a
3*5 = 15
Then multiply out the second bracket, 5(a-2)
5*a = 5a
5*-2 = -10
So now you have 6a + 15 + 5a - 10
Simplify it by collecting like terms, and you have:
11a + 5
And that's the answer, hope I helped!

. Using the Binomial Theorem explicitly, give the 15th term in the expansion of (-2x + 1)^19
timofeeve [1]
Let's rewrite the binomial as:
(1 - 2x)^{19}

\text{Binomial expansion:} (1 + x)^{n} = \sum_{r = 0}^n\left(\begin{array}{ccc}n\\r\end{array}\right) (x)^{r}

Using the binomial expansion, we get:
\text{Binomial expansion: } (1 - 2x)^{19} = \sum_{r = 0}^{19}\left(\begin{array}{ccc}19\\r\end{array}\right) (-2x)^{r}

For the 15th term, we want the term where r is equal to 14, because of the fact that the first term starts when r = 0. Thus, for the 15th term, we need to include the 0th or the first term of the binomial expansion.

Thus, the fifteenth term is:
\text{Binomial expansion (15th term):} \left(\begin{array}{ccc}19\\14\end{array}\right) (-2x)^{14}

Brandon is training for 200 meter dash. His best running time so far was 31.25 seconds. If Brandon wants to run the dash in 27 s
raketka [301]

Just subtract 27 from 31.25

31.25-27=4.25

Brandon must cut 4.25 seconds
