Tonya compared prices of two auto-rental agencies for the use of a mid- size car for one week. Affordable Auto charges 20 cents

per mile plus a flat fee of $382. Budget Auto charges 25 cents per mile plus a flat fee of $356. Which equation should Tonya use to determine the distance in miles, x, that would make the total charges of both auto-rental agencies equal?​

A metal cylinder can with an open top and closed bottom is to have volume 4 cubic feet. Approximate the dimensions that require
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

r\approx 1.084\ feet

h\approx 1.084\ feet

\displaystyle A=11.07\ ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Optimizing With Derivatives </u>

The procedure to optimize a function (find its maximum or minimum) consists in :

  •  Produce a function which depends on only one variable
  •  Compute the first derivative and set it equal to 0
  •  Find the values for the variable, called critical points
  •  Compute the second derivative
  •  Evaluate the second derivative in the critical points. If it results positive, the critical point is a minimum, if it's negative, the critical point is a maximum

We know a cylinder has a volume of 4 ft^3. The volume of a cylinder is given by

\displaystyle V=\pi r^2h

Equating it to 4

\displaystyle \pi r^2h=4

Let's solve for h

\displaystyle h=\frac{4}{\pi r^2}

A cylinder with an open-top has only one circle as the shape of the lid and has a lateral area computed as a rectangle of height h and base equal to the length of a circle. Thus, the total area of the material to make the cylinder is

\displaystyle A=\pi r^2+2\pi rh

Replacing the formula of h

\displaystyle A=\pi r^2+2\pi r \left (\frac{4}{\pi r^2}\right )

Simplifying

\displaystyle A=\pi r^2+\frac{8}{r}

We have the function of the area in terms of one variable. Now we compute the first derivative and equal it to zero

\displaystyle A'=2\pi r-\frac{8}{r^2}=0

Rearranging

\displaystyle 2\pi r=\frac{8}{r^2}

Solving for r

\displaystyle r^3=\frac{4}{\pi }

\displaystyle r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{4}{\pi }}\approx 1.084\ feet

Computing h

\displaystyle h=\frac{4}{\pi \ r^2}\approx 1.084\ feet

We can see the height and the radius are of the same size. We check if the critical point is a maximum or a minimum by computing the second derivative

\displaystyle A''=2\pi+\frac{16}{r^3}

We can see it will be always positive regardless of the value of r (assumed positive too), so the critical point is a minimum.

The minimum area is

\displaystyle A=\pi(1.084)^2+\frac{8}{1.084}

\boxed{ A=11.07\ ft^2}

Pooja's plant began sprouting 2 days before Pooja bought it, and she had it for 98 days until it died. At its tallest, the plant
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Solution:

Total number of Days that Pooja's plant survived= 2 + 98 = 100 Days=(t)

Longest Height obtained by plant = 30 cm= h

As the two , i.e number of Days lived by plant and it's longest height obtained are directly proportional.

We will solve it by unitary method.

100 Days = 30 cm

1 cm =  Days

If height of the plant is h cm ,and  amount of time taken is t days, then

h(t) cm = ,for t=0,1,2,3,4,5,6....we get different values of h.

mrs. johnson gave a sum of money to her son and daughter in the ratio 5:6. Her daughter received $2400. how muh did Mrs. Johnson
Tresset [83]
To find the total amount Mrs. Johnson gave away, you need to know how much she gave the son.  Because the ratio of the money given is 5:6, the amount of money he received has to be 5/6 of the money the daughter received.

So, the son received 5/6 of 2400.
To find this, multiply 5/6 x 2400 to get 2000.

The daughter received 2400 and the son received 2000, so the total amount Mrs. Johnson gave away is 4400 dollars.

The equations of two functions are y=-21x+9 and y=24x+8 which function is changing more quickly? Explain
antoniya [11.8K]

Given:

The equations are

y=-21x+9

y=24x+8

To find:

Which function is changing more quickly.

Solution:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y=mx+b

Where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

On comparing y=-21x+9 with the slope intercept form, we get

m_1=-21

|m_1|=|-21|

|m_1|=21

On comparing y=24x+8 with the slope intercept form, we get

m_2=24

|m_2|=24

Since, |m_1|, it means the absolute rate of change of second function is greater than the first function.

Therefore, the second function is changing more quickly.
