The sum of 1-3/4 6-3/8 and 1-23/32

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ne4ueva [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

-2.02083333333

Step-by-step explanation:

1-3 is -2/4, and 6-3 is 3/8 so -1/2/3/8 is -1 and 1/3

1-23 is -22/32,or -11/16

-1 and 1/3 + -11/16 is -2.02083333333

A rectangular field with one side along a river is to be fenced. Suppose that no fence is needed along the river, the fence on t
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

a) Side Parallel to the river: 200 ft

b) Each of the other sides: 400 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent side parallel to the river and W represent width of fence.

The required fencing (F) would be F=L+2W.

We have been given that field must contain 80,000 square feet. This means area of field must be equal to 80,000.

LW=80,000...(1)

We are told that the fence on the side opposite the river costs $20 per foot, and the fence on the other sides costs $5 per foot, so total cost (C) of fencing would be C=20L+5(2W)\Rightarrow 20L+10W.

From equation (1), we will get:

L=\frac{80,000}{W}

Upon substituting this value in cost equation, we will get:

C=20(\frac{80,000}{W})+10W

C=\frac{1600,000}{W}+10W

C=1600,000W^{-1}+10W

To minimize the cost, we need to find critical points of the the derivative of cost function as:

C'=-1600,000W^{-2}+10

-1600,000W^{-2}+10=0

-1600,000W^{-2}=-10

-\frac{1600,000}{W^2}=-10

-10W^2=-1,600,000

W^2=160,000

\sqrt{W^2}=\pm\sqrt{160,000}  

W=\pm 400

Since width cannot be negative, therefore, the width of the fencing would be 400 feet.

Now, we will find the 2nd derivative as:

C''=-2(-1600,000)W^{-3}

C''=3200,000W^{-3}

C''=\frac{3200,000}{W^3}

Now, we will substitute W=400 in 2nd derivative as:

C''(400)=\frac{3200,000}{400^3}=\frac{3200,000}{64000000}=0.05

Since 2nd derivative is positive at W=400, therefore, width of 400 ft of the fencing will minimize the cost.

Upon substituting W=400 in L=\frac{80,000}{W}, we will get:

L=\frac{80,000}{400}\\\\L=200

Therefore, the side parallel to the river will be 200 feet.

Can someone help me figure this out: Factor 12y^2-27? I keep getting the steps confused.
alukav5142 [94]
Factor out the gcf first.

3(4y^2-9)

The binomial inside is a perfect square so keep factoring.

3(2y+3)(2y-3)

The pair of binomials cannot be further factored so stop there.

A farmer planted corn in two different fields. He planted 500 seeds of regular corn in Field A and 500 seeds of experimental cor
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

1. More pollination process in the regular corn planted in field A than that of field B.

2. Low pest and insect attack on corn planted in field A compared to that of B.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Pollination is the process in which a plant becomes fertilized, so as to produced seeds. The process requires some agent which could be; air, human, wind etc.

Therefore more pollination of the corn planted in field A than those in B would lead to more yield (ears of corn harvested) than that of B.

2. Pests and insects are agents which could reduce the yield of the corn after harvest. Comparing the two fields A and B, if the corn planted in field A were not affected by pests or insects, while those planted in B were affected, then more ears of corn would be harvested in field A.
