A farmer wants to fence in a rectangular plot of land adjacent to the north wall of his barn. no fencing is needed along the bar

n, and the fencing along the west side of the plot is shared with a neighbor who will split the cost of that portion of the fence. if the fencing costs $12 per linear foot to install and the farmer is not willing to spend more than $3000, find the dimensions for the plot that would enclose the most area. (width, length) =

Hi,

Let assume a the west side,

b the length of the north wall (i suppose the answer is smaller then the barn.

Cost of the fence= a*6+a*12+b*12=3000 $.

So 3a+2b=500==>b=(500-3a)/2

Area =a*b=a(500-3a)/2= 250a-3/2a²

Derivate the area ==> 250-3a=0

==> a=250/3 and b=(500-3*250/3)/2=125

Width=125 (feet)

Length=250/3=83.333 (feet)

50-degree temperature is 0 minutes to heat = 50/0 = 50

60-degree temp. is 1 minute to heat = 60/1 = 60

70-degree temp, is 2 minutes to heat = 70/2 = 35

80-degree temp. is 3 minutes to heat = 80/3 = 26 2/3

90-degree temp. is 4 minutes to heat = 90/4 = 22.5

100 degree temp. is 5 minutes to heat = 100/5 = 20

<u>Hope this Helps :)</u>

telo118 [61]

Answer:

7/60

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the question is phrased such that it asks "the ratio of time with father <em>to...."</em>, we know to put the time with father on top, or first. Similarly, since it is asked to put the ratio of time with the father to the time in daycare, we can put the daycare amount second/on the bottom. Therefore, we can write the ratio as

(42 minutes)/(6 hours)

To make both of these in terms of minutes to simplify it, we know that 60 minutes = 1 hour, so 1 hour / 60 minutes =1 . Since multiplying something by 1 keeps it the same, we can multiply our ratio by this amount. We want to multiply with the hour on top so the hours cancel out, as so:

\frac{42 minutes}{6 hours} * \frac{1 hour}{60 minutes}  = \frac{42 minutes * hours}{360 minutes * hours} = \frac{42}{360}

To simplify this even further, we can note that 6 is a factor of both 42 and 360*, so we can multiply this fraction by (1/6) / (1/6) to get

(42/360) * (1/6)/(1/6) = 7/60 as our final answer

If this doesn't come up immediately, you can always find the greatest common factor by listing the factors of each number and finding the highest one that fits both, e.g.

for 42: 42, 21, 14, 7 , 6...

for 360: 360,180, ... 6,5....
