Sue wants to put rectangular garden on her property using 90 meters of fencing. There is a ns through her property, so she decid

es to increase the size of the garden by ne side of the rectangle. (Fencing is then needed only on the other three river that runs through her property, so she using the river as one side of the rectangle. (ren sides). Let x represent the length of the side of the rectangle parallel
a. Express the garden's area as a function of x.
b. Using your graphing calculator, determine the maximum area that Sue will be able to enclose for her garden and the dimensions of that area. (Hint: A good viewing window might be (-40, 100; 0, 1100])

Answer:

a) A(x)  = 90*x/2  -  x²/2

b) A(max) = 1012.5 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

L = 90 meters of fencing

Rectangular area is

A(r) = x*y .            where  x  and  y  are the sides of the rectangle

the perimeter is  ( we are going to fence only 3 sides, then)

x + 2*y = 90    or .    y  = ( 90  - x ) /2

Area as a function of x is:

A(x)  = x * ( 90 - x)/2

A(x)  = 90*x/2  -  x²/2

Tacking derivatives on both sides of the equation:

A´(x) =45  -  2*x/2         A´(x) =45  - x

A´(x) = 0 .      45  - x = 0 .      x  = 45 . meters

and . y   =  ( 90  - x ) 2

y = ( 90- 45 )/2  

y = 22.5 meters

A(max) =  45*22.5  m²

A(max) = 1012.5 m²

If we get the second derivative of A(x) .  A"(x) = - 1       A"(x) < 0

Then A(x) has a maximum for x = 45

After being treated with chemotherapy, the radius of the tumor decreased by 23%. What is the corresponding percentage decrease i
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The volume of the tumor experimented a decrease of 54.34 percent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let suppose that tumor has an spherical geometry, whose volume (V) is calculated by:

V = \frac{4\pi}{3}\cdot R^{3}

Where R is the radius of the tumor.

The percentage decrease in the volume of the tumor (\%V) is expressed by:

\%V = \frac{\Delta V}{V_{o}} \times 100\,\%

Where:

\Delta V - Absolute decrease in the volume of the tumor.

V_{o} - Initial volume of the tumor.

The absolute decrease in the volume of the tumor is:

\Delta V = V_{o}-V_{f}

\Delta V = \frac{4\pi}{3}\cdot (R_{f}^{3}-R_{o}^{3})

The percentage decrease is finally simplified:

\%V = \left[1-\left(\frac{R_{f}}{R_{o}}\right)^{3} \right]\times 100\,\%

Given that R_{o} = R and R_{f} = 0.77\cdot R, the percentage decrease in the volume of tumor is:

\%V = \left[1-\left(\frac{0.77\cdot R}{R}\right)^{3} \right]\times 100\,\%

\%V = 54.34\,\%

The volume of the tumor experimented a decrease of 54.34 percent.

Thirty elves would like to build a skating ring so they can all use it at the same time. Santa tells them, they need at least 40
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The Possible dimension of the ring could be;

20 ft × 60 ft

25 ft × 48 ft

30 ft × 40 ft

60 ft × 20 ft

48 ft × 25 ft

40 ft × 30 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of skaters = 30

Area for each skater = 40 sq ft

We need to find the dimension of rectangular ring the are going to build.

Now we know that they building the skating ring such that they all can use at same time.

Hence if the all use at same time then we will find the total area first.

Total area can be calculated by multiplying Number of skaters with area required for each skaters.

Framing the equation we get;

Total area = 30\times 40 = 1200 \ ft^2

Hence The total area of the rectangular ring would be 1200 sq. ft.

Now we know that Total area is equal to product of length and width.

length\times width =1200ft^2

1200 can be written as = 20 × 60, 25 × 48, 30 × 40,60 × 20,48 × 25,40 × 30

Hence the Possible dimension of the ring could be;

20 ft × 60 ft

25 ft × 48 ft

30 ft × 40 ft

60 ft × 20 ft

48 ft × 25 ft

40 ft × 30 ft
