Step-by-step explanation:

Beef = 12 * 8 (cause 25 * 8 = 200)

Beef = 96

Chicken = 8 * 8 (cause 25 * 8 = 200)

Chicken = 64

Pasta = 5 * 8 (cause 25 * 8 = 200)

Pasta = 40

Find the length and width of a rectangle that has the given area and a minimum perimeter. Area: 162 square feet
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The width and length of rectangle is 12.728 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the rectangle = L

let the width of the rectangle = W

The subjective function is given by;

F(p) = 2(L + W)

F = 2L + 2W

Area of the rectangle is given by;

A = LW

LW = 162 ft²

L = 162 / W

Substitute in the value of L into subjective function;

f = 2l + 2w\\\\f = 2(\frac{162}{w} )+2w\\\\f = \frac{324}{w} + 2w\\\\\frac{df}{dw} = \frac{-324}{w^2} +2\\\\

Take the second derivative of the function, to check if it will given a minimum perimeter

\frac{d^2f}{dw^2}= \frac{648}{w^3} \\\\Thus, \frac{d^2f}{dw^2}>0, \ since,\frac{648}{w^3} >0 \ (minimum \ function \ verified)

Determine the critical points of the first derivative;

df/dw = 0

\frac{-324}{w^2} +2 = 0\\\\-324 + 2w^2=0\\\\2w^2 = 324\\\\w^2 = \frac{324}{2} \\\\w^2 = 162\\\\w= \sqrt{162}\\\\w = 12.728 \ m

L = 162 / 12.728

L = 12.728 m

Therefore, the width and length of rectangle is 12.728 m

Melvin Marshall bought 20 Mothers Day Muffins for Mama-Melanie, Auntie-Marlene, Grandma-Melissa, Cousin Carmela and Sister-Shami
amid [387]

Answer:

The number of  Carmel muffins is 8 and the number of lemon muffins is 12.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Melvin Marshall bought a total of 20 Muffins . Some were camel-glazed muffins and some were lemon. The Carmel muffins cost $3 each while the lemons cost $2.5 . The number of carmel muffins and lemon muffins can be calculated as follows

total number of muffin =  20

Let

a  = number of carmel - glazed muffins

b = number of lemon muffins

a + b = 20.............(i)

The total cost

3a + 2.50b = 54................(ii)

Combine the equations

a + b = 20.............(i)

3a + 2.50b = 54................(ii)

a = 20 - b

insert the value of a in equation (ii)

3(20 - b) + 2.50b = 54

60 - 3b + 2.50b = 54

60 - 54 = 0.5b

0.5b = 6

divide both sides by 0.5

b = 6/0.5

b = 12

Insert the value of b in equation (i)

a + b = 20.............(i)

a + 12 = 20

a = 20 - 12

a = 8

The number of  Carmel muffins is 8 and the number of lemon muffins is 12.
