You are designing a rectangular garden. the garden will be enclosed by fencing on three sides and by a house on the fourth side.

RUDIKE [14]

Suppose the dimensions of the rectangle is x by y and let the side enclosed by a house be one of the sides measuring x, then the sides that is to be enclosed are two sides measuring y and one side measuring x.

Thus, the length of fencing needed is given by

P = x + 2y

The area of the rectangle is given by xy,

i.e.

$xy = 288 \\ \\ \\ \\ \Rightarrow y= \frac{288}{x}$

Substituting for y into the equation for the length of fencing needed, we have

$P=x+2\left( \frac{288}{x} \right)=x+ \frac{576}{x}$

For the amount of fencing to be minimum, then

$\frac{dP}{dx} =0 \\ \\ \Rightarrow1- \frac{576}{x^2} =0 \\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{576}{x^2} =1 \\ \\ \Rightarrow x^2=576 \\ \\ \Rightarrow x=\sqrt{576}=24$

Now, recall that

$y= \frac{288}{x} = \frac{288}{24} =12$

Thus, the length of fencing needed is given by

P = x + 2y = 24 + 2(12) = 24 + 24 = 48.

Therefore, 48 feets of fencing is needed to enclose the garden.

A cone with radius 2 and height 9 has its radius tripled. How many times greater is the volume of the larger cone than the small

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

When increasing the radius 3 times the volume increases 9 times and when it is reduced to a third the volume decreases 9 times

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the formula for the volume of a cone is:

Vc = pi * (r ^ 2) * h

We first calculate the original volume, where the radius is 2 and the height is 9, replacing:

Vc = 3.14 * (2 ^ 2) * 9

Vc = 113.04

Now if the radius is tripled it would be: 2 * 3 = 6, the radius would be 6, replacing:

Vc = 3.14 * (6 ^ 2) * 9

Vc = 1017.36

If we compare:

1017.36 / 113.04 = 9

This means that when the radius is tripled, the volume increases 9 times.

When if re reduces to a third the radius would be: 2/3, replacing:

Vc = 3.14 * ((2/3) ^ 2) * 9

Vc = 12.56

113.04 / 12.56 = 9

Which means that by reducing it to a third the volume becomes 9 times smaller.
