Answer:

Semicircle of radius of 1.6803 meters

Rectangle of dimensions 3.3606m x 1.6803m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the radius of the semicircle on the top=r  

Let the height of the rectangle =h  

Since the semicircle is on top of the window, the width of the rectangular portion =Diameter of the Semicircle =2r

The Perimeter of the Window

=Length of the three sides on the rectangular portion + circumference of the semicircle

=h+h+2r+\pi r=2h+2r+\pi r=12

The area of the window is what we want to maximize.

Area of the Window=Area of Rectangle+Area of Semicircle

=2hr+\frac{\pi r^2}{2}

We are trying to Maximize A subject to 2h+2r+\pi r=12

2h+2r+\pi r=12\\h=6-r-\frac{\pi r}{2}

The first and second derivatives are,

Area, A(r)=2r(6-r-\frac{\pi r}{2})+\frac{\pi r^2}{2}}=12r-2r^2-\frac{\pi r^2}{2}

Taking the first and second derivatives

A'\left( r \right) = 12 - r\left( {4 + \pi } \right)\\A''\left( r \right) =  - 4 - \pi

From the two derivatives above, we see that the only critical point  of r

A'\left( r \right) = 12 - r\left( {4 + \pi } \right)=0

r = \frac{{12}}{{4 + \pi }} = 1.6803

Since the second derivative is a negative constant, the maximum area must occur at this point.

h=6-1.6803-\frac{\pi X1.6803}{2}=1.6803

So, for the maximum area the semicircle on top must have a radius of 1.6803 meters and the rectangle must have the dimensions 3.3606m x 1.6803m ( Recall, The other dimension of the window = 2r)

The quotient of a number y and 22
iogann1982 [59]
Ok so, the quotient of a number y and 22, we would solve this problem like this... y:22, and y:22 is equal to 7/22, therefore, the quotient of a number y and 22 would be. \boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{ \frac{7}{22}}}}}}}}}}}}

Vlada [557]
When Thanos snaps he wipes out have of the universe. That doesn't mean half of every population on every single planet. That means half of the universe as a whole. This question does not have an exact answer because though its unlikely, it is possible that when Thanos snaps, nobody on Earth dies.

Complete the sentence below. A function f is​ _____ on an open interval I​ if, for any choice of x1 and x2 in​ I, with x1less th
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Increasing if f' >0 and decreasing if f'<0

Step-by-step explanation:

Difference quotient got by getting

\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h} will be greater than 0 if function is increasing otherwise negative

Here h is a small positive value.

In other words, we find that whenever first derivative of a function f(x) is positive the function is increasing.

Here given that for x1, x2 where x1<x2, we have

if f(x1) <f(x2) then the function is decreasing.

Or if x1<x2 and if f(x1) >f(x2) for all x1, and x2 in I the open interval we say f(x) is decreasing in I.
