The dimensions of the rectangular pen should be 15 by 20 feet and the maximum area is 1200 square feet.
Let the area be y .
Area = (base) × (height)
Base = 2x
Height = h
Let the area of the rectangular pens be y .
∴ y = 2xh
Perimeter of all the fencing = 4x+3h
∴ 4x+3h = 120
now we solve for h
3h = 120-4x
h = 40 - 4/3 x
Now we will substitute this value in the above first equation:
y = 2xh
or, y = 2x (40 - 4/3 x)
or, y = 80x - 8/3 x²
Now for the maximum area we have to find the first order differentiation of y
now,
dy /dx = 80 - 16/3 x
At dy/dx = 0 we get the value of x for which y is maximum.
80 - 16/3 x = 0
or, - 16/3 x = -80
or, x = 15 feet
Hence height = 40 - 4/3 x = 40 - 20 = 20feet
Maximum area = 2xh = 2×15×40 = 1200 square feet
The dimensions of the rectangular pen should be 15 by 20 feet and the maximum area is 1200 square feet.

Answer:
-1 / 13
Step-by-step explanation:
(x 1,y1) = (-10,5)
(x2, y2) = (3,4)
y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's make the number we're finding to be
. So, it says that it will be divided by 4 and then added by 12 if we want this in algebraic expression it will be
. It's also telling us that that expression is the same thing as our number divided by 3 and subtracted by 5. If we want an expression out of it it well be
. Since they are the same, we have the equation below.

All we have to do now is to find
.

<h3>Answer:</h3>
Our number must be
. I think
I think I would be 1 but I am not so sure
This is quite a complex problem. I wrote out a really nice solution but I can't work out how to put it on the website as the app is very poorly made. Still, I'll just have to type it all in...
Okay so you need to use a technique called logarithmic differentiation. It seems quite unnatural to start with but the result is very impressive.
Let y = (x+8)^(3x)
Take the natural log of both sides:
ln(y) = ln((x+8)^(3x))
By laws of logarithms, this can be rearranged:
ln(y) = 3xln(x+8)
Next, differentiate both sides. By implicit differentiation:
d/dx(ln(y)) = 1/y dy/dx
The right hand side is harder to differentiate. Using the substitution u = 3x and v = ln(x+8):
d/dx(3xln(x+8)) = d/dx(uv)
du/dx = 3
Finding dv/dx is harder, and involves the chain rule. Let a = x+ 8:
v = ln(a)
da/dx = 1
dv/da = 1/a
By chain rule:
dv/dx = dv/da * da/dx = 1/a = 1/(x+8)
Finally, use the product rule:
d/dx(uv) = u * dv/dx + v * du/dx = 3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8)
This overall produces the equation:
1/y * dy/dx = 3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8)
We want to solve for dy/dx, achievable by multiplying both sides by y:
dy/dx = y(3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8))
Since we know y = (x+8)^(3x):
dy/dx = ((x+8)^(3x))(3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8))
Neatening this up a bit, we factorise out 3/(x+8):
dy/dx = (3(x+8)^(3x-1))(x + (x+8)ln(x+8))
Well wasn't that a marathon? It's a nightmare typing that in, I hope you can follow all the steps.
I hope this helped you :)
