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

4x - 3 = 2x + 7 what would the answer be??
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Subtract 2x from both sides.

4x−3−2x=2x+7−2x

<u>2x−3=7</u>

Step 2: Add 3 to both sides.

2x−3+3=7+3

<u>2x=10 </u>

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.

2x/2 = 10/2

x=5
