A. You would use base*height (bh). You would multiply 4 and 5. The answer is 20in.
B. It would be 1/3*bh. The answer would be 6.6.
Material=wall+2*side and material is 40 ft so:
40=w+2s
w=40-2s
Area=ws, using w from above we get:
A=(40-2s)s
A=40s-2s^2
dA/ds=40-4s and d2A/ds2=-4
Since d2A/ds2 is a constant negative acceleration, when dA/ds=0, A(s) is at an absolute maximum.
dA/ds=0 when 4s=40, s=10 ft
And since w=40-2s, w=20 ft
So the dimensions of the pen are 20 ft by 10 ft, with the 20 ft side being opposite the wall. And the maximum possible area is thus 200 ft^2
Symmetrical because the numbers in a bar graph show sort of a pyramid-like shape, rather than a skewed or flatter shape.
Answer: 1⁵/₈ pints
Step-by-step explanation:
First can contained 3¹/₄ pints and second can contained 6¹/₂.
To make them equal, first find the different;
= 6¹/₂ - 3¹/₄
= 6.5 - 3.25
= 3.25
Divide this difference by 2;
= 3.25/2
= 1.625
= 1⁶²⁵/₁₀₀₀
= 1⁵/₈ pints
If Carson pours 1⁵/₈ pints from the second Can, it would increase the first can to 4⁷/₈ pints whilst reducing the second can to 4⁷/₈ pints as well.
