5. A deck should have a perimeter of 90 feet and a minimum area

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ket [755]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The minimum value of the width is 15 ft and the maximum value of the width is 30 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the length of the deck

y ----> the width of the deck

we know that

The perimeter of the deck is equal to

P=2(x+y)

P=90\ ft

so

90=2(x+y)

45=(x+y)

x=45-y -----> equation A

The area is equal to

xy\geq 450 -----> inequality B  

(45-y)y\geq 450\\ \\-y^{2} +45y-450\geq 0

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing

The possible width of the deck are the values of y in the interval

[15,30]

All real numbers greater than or equal to 15 ft and less than or equal to 30 ft

see the attached figure

The minimum value of the width is 15 ft and the maximum value of the width is 30 ft

If lin runs 21 laps at the same rate, how long does it take her 25.6 minutes How many laps per minute is that? __ laps
Alex Ar [27]

Answer: 0.82 laps per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Lin is running 21 laps in 25.6 minutes.

To find out her speed in laps per minute, divide the distance she has ran by the time it took her to run it.

= Distance / time

= 21 / 25.6

= 0.82 laps per minute

A scientist running an experiment starts with 100 bacteria cells. These bacteria double their population every 15 hours. Find ho
IRISSAK [1]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: 23.77 hours

<h2>Why?</h2>

Total(t)=Start*2^\frac{t}{15}

Where:

Total(t) is equal to the amount for a determined time (in hours)

<em>Start</em> is the original amount

<em>t </em>is the time in hours.

For example, it's known from the statement that the bacteria double their population every 15 hours, so it can be written like this:

Total(15)=100*2^\frac{15}{15}=100*2^{1}=100*2=200

To calculate how long it takes for the bacteria cells to increase to 300, we should do the following calculation:

300=100*2^{\frac{t}{15} } } \\\frac{300}{100}=2^{\frac{t}{15} } }\\log(3)=log(2^{\frac{t}{15} })\\\\\\log(3)=\frac{t}{15}*log2\\t=\frac{log(3)}{log(2)} *15=23.77

So, to know if we are right, let's replace 23.77 h in the equation:

Total(t)=100*2^\frac{23.77}{15}=299.94

and 299.94≅300

Have a nice day!
