If each of them paid an extra of $4.
4 person paid $4 x 4 = $16 extra

The $16 is the share of the 5th person, which is also each person's share.

$16 x 5 = $80.

Answer: The total bill is $80.

Hey there :)

1 ) Five friends went to a restaurant with an agreement to share the bill
2 ) One forgets so four friends part of bill rose by $4 each

Let p represent the total amount of bill

Translating (1) into mathematics:
\frac{p}{5}      ( Original agreement )

Translating (2) into mathematics:
\frac{p}{4}      ( Share among four )

Portions of bill increases by
4

Therefore, 
\frac{p}{4} - \frac{p}{5} = 4

Change to same denominators 
\frac{p(5)}{4(5)}- \frac{p(4)}{5(4)} =4
\frac{5p}{20} \frac{4p}{20} = 4
p = $80

The total bill was $80

a farmer has 100m for fence avaibiable, with which he intends to build a pen for his sheep. he intends to create a rectangular p
Reika [66]

The perimeter of the area of the pen the farmer intends to build for his

ship includes the length of the permanent stone wall.

Response:

i) The length and width of the rectangular pen are; <em>x</em>, and \dfrac{100 - x}{2}, therefore;

  • The area is; A = \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x \cdot (100 - x)

ii) \hspace{0.5 cm}\dfrac{dA}{dx}  = 50 - x

\dfrac{d^2A}{dx^2} =  -1

iii) The value of <em>x</em> that makes the area as large as possible is x = 50

<h3>How is the function for the area and the maximum area obtained?</h3>

Given:

The length of fencing the farmer has = 100 m

Part of the area of the pen is a permanent stone wall.

Let <em>x</em> represent the length of the stone wall, we have;

2 × Width = 100 m - x

Therefore;

Width, <em>w</em>, of the rectangular pen, w = \mathbf{\dfrac{100 - x}{2}}

Area of a rectangle = Length × Width

Area of the rectangular pen, is therefore;

  • A = x \times \dfrac{100 - x}{2} = \underline{\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x \cdot (100 - x)}

ii) \hspace{0.5 cm} \mathbf{\dfrac{dA}{dx}}, and \mathbf{\dfrac{d^2A}{dx^2} } are found as follows;

\dfrac{dA}{dx} = \mathbf{\dfrac{d}{dx} \left(  \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x \cdot (100 - x) \right)} = \underline{50 - x}

\dfrac{d^2A}{dx^2} = \mathbf{ \dfrac{d}{dx} \left( 50 - x\right)} = \underline{-1}

iii) The value of <em>x</em> that makes the area as large as possible is given as follows;

Given that the second derivative, \dfrac{d^2A}{dx^2} =-1, is negative, we have;

At the maximum area, \dfrac{dA}{dx} = \mathbf{0}, which gives;

\dfrac{dA}{dx} = 50 - x = 0

x = 50

  • The value of x that makes the area as large as possible is <em>x</em>  =<u> 50</u>

A 210-N mass is suspended from a horizontal beam by two cables that make angles of 29 degrees and 53 degrees with the beam. Find
natta225 [31]

The tension in the cable is given by the newton's first law will be 163.622 N.

<h3>What is newton's first law?</h3>

The summation of the force is equal to zero.

The formula is given as

ΣF = 0

Where m is the mass of the body and a is the acceleration.

A 210-N mass is suspended from a horizontal beam by two cables that make angles of 29 degrees and 53 degrees with the beam.

Then the tension in the cable will be

Let T be the tension in the cable.

T sin 29° + T sin 53° – 210 = 0

On simplifying, we have

T (sin 29° + sin 53°) = 210

                             T = 163.622 N
