Of all rectangles with area 324324​, which one has the minimum​ perimeter? Let P and w be the perimeter and​ width, respectively

, of the rectangle. Write the objective function in terms of P and w. Assume that the width is less than the length if the dimensions are unequal.

Answer:

For w = 18 units perimeter is minimum

P = 2(18 + w)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Area of the rectangle = 324 units²

P is the perimeter

w is the width

Let L be the length of the rectangle

therefore,

P = 2(L + w)  ............(1)

also,

Lw = 324

or

L = \frac{324}{w} ..........(2)

substituting 2 in 1

P = 2(\frac{324}{w} + w)

now,

for minimizing the perimeter

\frac{dp}{dw}=\frac{d(2(\frac{324}{w} + w))}{dw} = 0

or

2((-1)\frac{324}{w^2}+1) = 0

or

(-1)\frac{324}{w^2}+1 = 0

or

(-1)\frac{324}{w^2} = -1

or

w² = 324

or

w = 18 units

For w = 18 units perimeter is minimum

therefore,

from 2

L = \frac{324}{18}

or

L = 18 units

objective function for P is:

P = 2(18 + w)

Is the relation a function, and what is the range?<br> Please help.
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

the last option or D

Step-by-step explanation:

Not a function because x-values repeat and to find the range you grab all the y-values. If y-value repeats the same number then you would take one of the numbers. Don't add it or anything, just count it as one number.

3/1 x 2 /58 what is it
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

the answer would be 21/5 or 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this equation you would use the butterfly method

3/1 x 2/58

3x28=84 and 5x1=5

your fraction is going to be 84/5.

84 can be reduced to 21. so your <u>answer would be 21/5</u>. in the decimal form, it would be <u>4.5</u>

Which line is perpendicular to y=7x-3 if the perpendicular line passes through the point (7, 7)? a) y=-7x-1 b) y=-7x+8 c) y=-1/7
Norma-Jean [14]

Perpendicular lines have an opposite reciprocal slope, therefore, the slope of the perpendicular line is:

-1/7

So far, y = -1/7x + b. Now we need to plug in (7, 7) into x and y for our equation.

7 = -1/7(7) + b

Simplify the right side

7 = -1 + b

Add 1 to both sides

8 = b

The equation of the perpendicular line is:

y = -1/7x + 8
