Answer:

Yes

8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the arch is

y=-0.0625x^2+1.25x+5.75

Differentiating with respect to x we get

\dfrac{dy}{dx}=-2\times 0.0625x+1.25=-0.125x+1.25

Equating with zero

0=-0.125x+1.25\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{-1.25}{-0.125}\\\Rightarrow x=10

Double derivative of the equation

\dfrac{d^2y}{dx^2}=-0.125

So, the function is maximum at x=10

y=-0.0625x^2+1.25x+5.75=-0.0625\times 10^2+1.25\times 10+5.75\\\Rightarrow y=12

The function is maximum at (10,12)

So, the truck's center should be below the point (10,12) for maximum width to pass through.

Now truck is 11 feet tall so y=11

11=-0.0625x^2+1.25x+5.75\\\Rightarrow -0.0625x^2+1.25x-5.25=0\\\Rightarrow x=\frac{-1.25\pm \sqrt{1.25^2-4\left(-0.0625\right)\left(-5.25\right)}}{2\left(-0.0625\right)}\\\Rightarrow x=6,14

The maximum width of the truck can be 14-6=8\ \text{ft} if it is 11 feet tall.

So, the truck which has a width of 7 feet can fit under the arch.

Sarah wants to fence her garden, as shown below. Determine how much fencing to the nearst foot that
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

431.775 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

So basically we should first find the area of the rectangles which is  28 ft * 15 ft, which you get 420. Next for the semicircle, the diameter is 15 but we need the radius so you divide that by 2 to get 7.5 as the radius. Then u multiply 7.5 * π, or 3.14 to get 23.55. But since its a semicircle, or half a circle we divide 23.55 by 2 which is 11.775. Then we just add the results which is 420 ft and 11.755 ft to get a total area of 431.775 ft.

-Hope this helped!
