-3/2 = -1 1/2 or - 1.5
-5 1/4 = -5/4 = -1 1/4 or -1.25
-1.5 × -1.25 = 1.875

The height of a parallelogram is 4 times the base. The base measures 3 1/2 ft find the area off the parallelogram

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Area = 49 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for area of a parallelogram is A = bh, where b is the base, and h is the height. Here, the base is given and the height is 4 times the length of the base

Here b = 3 1/2, and h = 4(3 1/2) = 14

3 1/2 becomes 7/2 as an improper fraction, 4(7/2) = 28/2 = 14

So the area is

A = 14(3 1/2)

A = 14(7/2)

A = 98/2

A = 49 ft²

. A right cylindrical drum is to hold 7.35 cubic feet of liquid. Find the dimensions (radius of the base and height) of the drum

Drupady [299]

Answer:

$r=1.05\ \text{ft}$

$h=2.12\ \text{ft}$

$20.91\ \text{ft}^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

r = Radius

h = Height

Volume of cylinder = $7.35\ \text{ft}^3$

$V=\pi r^2h\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{V}{\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{7.35}{\pi r^2}$

Surface area is given by

$A=2\pi r^2+2\pi rh\\\Rightarrow A=2\pi r^2+2\pi r\dfrac{7.35}{\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow A=2\pi r^2+\dfrac{14.7}{r}$

Differentiating with respect to radius we get

$\dfrac{dA}{dr}=4\pi r-\dfrac{14.7}{r^2}$

Equating with zero we get

$0=4\pi r-\dfrac{14.7}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow 4\pi r=\dfrac{14.7}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow r^3=\dfrac{14.7}{4\pi}\\\Rightarrow r=(\dfrac{14.7}{4\pi})^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow r=1.05$

$\dfrac{d^2A}{dr^2}=4\pi-2\times \dfrac{14.7}{r^3}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d^2A}{dr^2}=4\pi+2\times \dfrac{14.7}{1.05^3}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d^2A}{dr^2}=37.96>0$

So, the value of the function is minimum at $r=1.05$

$h=\dfrac{7.35}{\pi r^2}=\dfrac{7.35}{\pi 1.05^2}\\\Rightarrow h=2.12$

So, the radius and height which would minimize the surface area is 1.05 feet and 2.12 feet respectively.

Surface area

$A=2\pi r^2+2\pi rh\\\Rightarrow A=2\pi \times 1.05^2+2\pi 1.05\times 2.12\\\Rightarrow A=20.91\ \text{ft}^3$

The minimum surface area is $20.91\ \text{ft}^3$ .
