Answer:

Foil the expression and solve the derivative with respect to b at f'(x)=0 $2b^2+3b+5=6b\\d/dx(2b^2+9b+5=0)\\4b+9=0\\b=-9/4$

Carrie wished to build a rectangular dog run along theside of her garage. The garage will serve as one side of the fence. If she

Nat2105 [25]

Given:

Carrie has 180 ft of the fencing and wishes the fence to be 4times as long as it is wide.

To Find:

The area in square feet that the fencing encloses.

Answer:

The fence encloses 3600 sq ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denote the length of the dog run and y denote the width of the dog run.

Given that the garage wall serves as one side of the dog run, we are left with 3 other sides to instal the fence.

Carrie has 180ft of fencing with her, so the sum of the lengths of the 3 sides has to be equal to 180. We can represent this in the form of an equation as

$x+y+y=180\\\\x+2y=180\\\\x=180-2y$

We are also given that Carrie wishes the fence to be 4 times as long as it is wide.

So,

$x=4y$

Replacing this value into the first equation, we have

$4y=180-2y\\\\
6y=180\\\\
y=30$

Therefore,

$x=(4)(30)=120$

Thus, the length of the dog run is 120ft and the width is 30ft.

The area enclosed will be equal to the length multiplied with the width. So,

$(120)(30)=3600$

The fence encloses 3600 sq ft.

What is 720° converted to radians? <br> a) 1/4<br> b) pi/4<br> c) 4/pi<br> d) 4pi

baherus [9]

4π radians

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

We provide an angle of 720° that will be instantly converted to radians.

Recognize these:

$\boxed{ \ 1 \ revolution = 360 \ degrees = 2 \pi \ radians \ }$
$\boxed{ \ 0.5 \ revolutions = 180 \ degrees = \pi \ radians \ }$

From the conversion previous we can produce the formula as follows:

$\boxed{\boxed{ \ Radians = degrees \times \bigg( \frac{\pi }{180^0} \bigg) \ }}$
$\boxed{\boxed{ \ Degrees = radians \times \bigg( \frac{180^0}{\pi } \bigg) \ }}$

We can state the following:

Degrees to radians, multiply by $\frac{\pi }{180^0}$
Radians to degrees, multiply by $\frac{180^0}{\pi }$

Given α = 720°. Let us convert this degree to radians.

$\boxed{ \ \alpha = 720^0 \times \frac{\pi }{180^0} \ }$

720° and 180° crossed out. They can be divided by 180°.

$\boxed{ \ \alpha = 4 \times \pi \ }$

Hence, $\boxed{\boxed{ \ 720^0 = 4 \pi \ radians \ }}$

<u>Another example:</u>

Convert $\boxed{ \ \frac{4}{3} \pi \ radians \ }$ to degrees.

$\alpha = \frac{4}{3} \pi \ radians \rightarrow \alpha = \frac{4}{3} \pi \times \frac{180^0}{\pi }$

180° and 3 crossed out. Likewise with π.

Thus, $\boxed{\boxed{ \ \frac{4}{3} \pi \ radians = 240^0 \ }}$
