Answer:
x = 8,49 ft
y = 4,24 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the longer side of rectangle and y the shorter
Area of rectangle = 36 ft² 36 = x* y ⇒ y =36/x
Perimeter of rectangle:
P = 2x + 2y for convinience we will write it as P = ( 2x + y ) + y
C(x,y) = 1 * ( 2x + y ) + 3* y
The cost equation as function of x is:
C(x) = 2x + 36/x + 108/x
C(x) = 2x + 144/x
Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation
C´(x) = 2 - 144/x²
C´(x) = 0 2 - 144/x² = 0 ⇒ 2x² -144 = 0 ⇒ x² = 72
x = 8,49 ft y = 36/8.49 y = 4,24 ft
How can we be sure that value will give us a minimun
We get second derivative
C´(x) = 2 - 144/x² ⇒C´´(x) = 2x (144)/ x⁴
so C´´(x) > 0
condition for a minimum
Answer:
24 students
Step-by-step explanation:
So we started with 32 cups of juice.
Kahled drunk 2 cups so (32-2)=30 cups is left.
If x represents the number of students he receive juice and each student gets the same amount of juice which is 1.25 cups, then we have the equation
1.25x=30 to solve for x.
Divide both sides by 1.25:
x=30/1.25
x=24
24 students receive juice
