Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area= length x width
area=6/7, length=3/5, width=?
6/7=3/5 x width
6/7 divided by 3/5= 6/7 x 5/3 (you have to multiply by the recipricol, or flip the fraction.)
6/7 x 5/3=30/21= 1 3/7=width
Answer:
No, equivalent quarterly rate will be approx 1.75%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Chan deposited money into his retirement account that is compounded annually at an interest rate of 7%.
We know that there are 4 quarters in 1 year.
So to find that equivalent quarterly we will divide given yearly rate by number of quarters.
That means divide 7% by 4.
which gives 1.75%.
But that is different than Chan's though of 2% quarterly interest.
Hence Chan is wrong.
Answer:
- 12 ft parallel to the river
- 6 ft perpendicular to the river
Step-by-step explanation:
The least fence is used when half the total fence is parallel to the river. That is, the shape of the rectangle is twice as long as it is wide.
72 = W(2W)
36 = W²
6 = W . . . . . . the width perpendicular to the river
12 = 2W . . . . the length parallel to the river
_____
<em>Development of this relation</em>
Let T represent the total length of the fence for some area A. Then if x is the length along the river, the width is y=(T-x)/2, and the area is ...
A = xy = x(T -x)/2
Note that the equation for area is that of a parabola with zeros at x=0 and at x=T. That is, for some fence length T, the area will be a maximum at the vertex of this parabola. That vertex is located halfway between the zeros, at ...
x = (0 +T)/2 = T/2
The corresponding area width (y) is ...
y = (T -T/2)/2 = T/4
Equivalently, the fence length T will be a minimum for some area A when x=T/2 and y=T/4. This is the result we used above.
