A farmer is building a fence to enclose a rectangular area consisting of two separate regions. The four walls and one additional

vertical segment (to separate the regions) are made up of fencing, as shown below. A rectangular area consisting of two separated regions. If the farmer has 162 feet of fencing, what are the dimensions of the region which enclose the maximal areas?

Answer:

The maximal area will be "1093.5 square feet".

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Length = L feet

Breadth = b feet

Given Total fencing = 162 feet

According to the question,

 (2\times L)+(3\times b)=162

              2L+3B=162

                         L=\frac{162-3b}{2}

                         L=81-\frac{3}{2}b

As we know,

 Area=Length\times breadth

          =(81-\frac{3}{2}b)\times b

          =81b-\frac{3}{2}b^2

Now, we required to decrease or minimize the are. So for extreme points:

 \frac{dA}{db}=0

or,

 \frac{dA}{dB}=\frac{d}{db}(81-\frac{3}{2}b^2 )=0

       81-\frac{3}{2}\times 2\times b=0

                            b=\frac{81}{3}

                            b=27 \ feet

Now on putting the value of b, we get

 l=81-\frac{3}{2}\times 27

   =81-40.5

   =40.5 \ feet\\

So that the dimensions will be:

⇒  40.5 feet by 27 feet

Therefore when the dimension are above then the area will be:

=  81\times 27-\frac{3}{2}\times 27\times 27

=  2187-\frac{3}{2}\times 729

=  2187-1093.5

=  1093.5 \ square \ feet

How to use exponents instead of logs
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Convert into same base

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert both sides into same bases and equate the powers to solve for the variable.

Example:

8^x = 32

You can either use logs to bring the power down or convert both sides into the same base

8 = 2³

8^x = (2³)^x = 2^(3x)

32 = 2⁵

2^(3x) = 2⁵

3x = 5

x = 5/3

x = 1⅔

Solve the inequality. q - 1 1/3 > -2 1/2
ioda

\Leftrightarrow q>1\frac{1}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

  q-\frac {11}{3}>-2\frac{1}{2}

\Leftrightarrow q>-2\frac{1}{2}+\frac {11}{3}

\Leftrightarrow q>\frac{7}{6}

\Leftrightarrow q>1\frac{1}{6}

For a normal distribution what percentage of data falls within one standard deviation of the mean
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

For a normal distribution 68% of data falls within one standard deviation from mean on both sides of mean

Step-by-step explanation:

A normal distribution's graph is a bell shaped curve that is completely described by its mean and standard deviation. Standard deviation is measured in terms of distance from mean.

34% of data is covered in one standard deviation from mean on one side.

Therefore, for a normal distribution 68% of data falls within one standard deviation from mean on both sides of mean ..

What is the greatest<br> common factor (GCF) of 16<br> and 21
viktelen [127]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by prime factorizing (finding the prime factors) of 16 and 21:

16=4*4=2*2*2*2=2^4

21=3*7

We can see that they DO NOT have any common factors, meaning that their greatest common factor is 1.
