Answer: A 24 cm piece of string is cut into two pieces , one piece is used to form a circle and the other piece is used to form a square.
How should this string be cut so that the sum of the areas is a minimum .
:
Let x = the circumference of the circle
then
(24-x) = the perimeter of the square
:
Find the area of the circle
find r
2*pi*r = x
r =
Find the area of the circle
A =
A =
A = sq/cm, the area of the circle
:
Find the area of the square
A = sq/cm the area of the square
The total area
At = +
Graph this equation, find the min
Min occurs when x=10.6 cm
cut string 10.6 cm from one end

6hrs = 360 minutes
360/7.5 = 48 bottles required
500g = 0.5kg
48x0.5 = 24 kg
24x 5 = 120p
Yu can you think how many triangles fit in that parallelogram? The answer is six. four in the central rectangle and two at the ends, then the area of the parallelogram will be six times greater than that of the triangle in that graph. Good luck! M.
