Suppose you need to minimize the cost of fencing in a rectangular region with a total area of 450 square feet. The material that

will be used for three sides costs $21 per linear foot, and the material that will be used for the fourth side costs $15 per linear foot. Write a function that expresses the cost of fencing the region in terms of the length, x, of the two opposite sides of the region with material costs of $21 per linear foot.

Answer:

The problem is stated as:

Min C = 15*(2*x +y) + 21*y

subject to x*y = 450

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the region is rectangular, it has two opposite sides called x and two other opposite sides called y (both measured in feet). Then, the area (in square feet) is:

A = x*y = 450

One of the sides called y costs $21 per linear foot. The other 3 sides (two x and one y) costs $15 per linear foot. Then, the cost function is:

C = 15*(2*x +y) + 21*y

ABC city residents vote on construction of a new playground. The number of votes in favor of playground was 3500
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

70% in favor of building a new playground  

<em>3500 (</em><em>in favor</em><em>) + 1500 (</em><em>against it</em><em>) = 5000 (</em><em>total number votes</em><em>)</em>

<em />

<em>3500 (</em><em>in favor</em><em>)                                              1500 (</em><em>against it</em><em>)</em>

<em> -------------------    = 0.7 / 70%                          -------------------     =0.3 / 30%</em>

<em>5000 (</em><em>total</em><em>)                                                      5000 (</em><em>total</em><em>)            </em>
