Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given curve is

y=27-x^2

We need to find the area of the largest rectangle with lower base on the x-axis and upper vertices on the curve y=27-x^2.

Let the vertex in quadrant I be (x,y), then the vertex in quadrant II is (-x,y) .

Length of the rectangle = 2x

Width of the rectangle = y

Area of a rectangle is

Area=Length\times width

Area=2x\times y

Substitute the value of y from the given equation.

Area=2x(27-x^2)

A=54x-2x^3      .... (1)

Differentiate with respect to x.

\frac{dA}{dx}=54-6x^2

Equate \frac{dA}{dx}=0, to find the critical points.

0=54-6x^2

6x^2=54

Divide both sides by 6.

x^2=9

x=\pm 3

The value of x can not be negative because side length can not be negative.

Substitute x=3 in equation (1).

A=54(3)-2(3)^3

A=162-54

A=108

The area of the largest rectangle is 108 square units.

Therefore, the correct option is B.

The Montanez family is a family of four people. They have used 3,485.78 gallons of water so far this month. They cannot exceed 7
il63 [147K]

Answer:

x ≤ 3764.72

Step-by-step expl anation:

The Montanez family cannot use more than 7250.50 gallons, this means that they can use less than or equal to 7250.50 gallons, this tells you which sign to use.  The variable x can be used to describe how much water they have left to use and then you add 3,485.78 gallons to x.

x + 3485.78 ≤ 7250.50   This inequality means that the amount of water the family has yet to use added to 3485.78 gallons cannot exceed 7250.50 gallons.

Next, you simplify the inequality using the property of inequalities.

x ≤ 7250.50 - 3485.78

x ≤ 3764.72
