Answer:=42 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Strap=(a+b)*h/2 ( where a and b are trapezoid' s bases and h is a height)

So 864=(30+b)*24/2

30+b=864*2/24

30+b=864/12

30+b=72

b=72-30

b=42 cm

Answer:

The load balance $(x_1,x_2,x_3)=(545.5,272.7,181.8)$ Mw minimizes the total cost

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Optimizing With Lagrange Multipliers</u>

When a multivariable function f is to be maximized or minimized, the Lagrange multipliers method is a pretty common and easy tool to apply when the restrictions are in the form of equalities.

Consider three generators that can output xi megawatts, with i ranging from 1 to 3. The set of unknown variables is x1, x2, x3.

The cost of each generator is given by the formula

$\displaystyle C_i=3x_i+\frac{i}{40}x_i^2$

It means the cost for each generator is expanded as

$\displaystyle C_1=3x_1+\frac{1}{40}x_1^2$

$\displaystyle C_2=3x_2+\frac{2}{40}x_2^2$

$\displaystyle C_3=3x_3+\frac{3}{40}x_3^2$

The total cost of production is

$\displaystyle C(x_1,x_2,x_3)=3x_1+\frac{1}{40}x_1^2+3x_2+\frac{2}{40}x_2^2+3x_3+\frac{3}{40}x_3^2$

Simplifying and rearranging, we have the objective function to minimize:

$\displaystyle C(x_1,x_2,x_3)=3(x_1+x_2+x_3)+\frac{1}{40}(x_1^2+2x_2^2+3x_3^2)$

The restriction can be modeled as a function g(x)=0:

$g: x_1+x_2+x_3=1000$

$g(x_1,x_2,x_3)= x_1+x_2+x_3-1000$

We now construct the auxiliary function

$f(x_1,x_2,x_3)=C(x_1,x_2,x_3)-\lambda g(x_1,x_2,x_3)$

$\displaystyle f(x_1,x_2,x_3)=3(x_1+x_2+x_3)+\frac{1}{40}(x_1^2+2x_2^2+3x_3^2)-\lambda (x_1+x_2+x_3-1000)$

We find all the partial derivatives of f and equate them to 0

$\displaystyle f_{x1}=3+\frac{2}{40}x_1-\lambda=0$

$\displaystyle f_{x2}=3+\frac{4}{40}x_2-\lambda=0$

$\displaystyle f_{x3}=3+\frac{6}{40}x_3-\lambda=0$

$f_\lambda=x_1+x_2+x_3-1000=0$

Solving for \lambda in the three first equations, we have

$\displaystyle \lambda=3+\frac{2}{40}x_1$

$\displaystyle \lambda=3+\frac{4}{40}x_2$

$\displaystyle \lambda=3+\frac{6}{40}x_3$

Equating them, we find:

$x_1=3x_3$

$\displaystyle x_2=\frac{3}{2}x_3$

Replacing into the restriction (or the fourth derivative)

$x_1+x_2+x_3-1000=0$

$\displaystyle 3x_3+\frac{3}{2}x_3+x_3-1000=0$

$\displaystyle \frac{11}{2}x_3=1000$

$x_3=181.8\ MW$

And also

$x_1=545.5\ MW$

$x_2=272.7\ MW$

The load balance $(x_1,x_2,x_3)=(545.5,272.7,181.8)$ Mw minimizes the total cost

What is the length of the dotted line in the diagram below? Leave your answer in simplest radical form.

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

$\sqrt{93}$

Step-by-step explanation:

8^2+5^2=c^2

64+25=c^2

89=c^2

c= $\sqrt{89}$ <-- this is the length of the rectangle at the bottom

2^2+( $\sqrt{89}$ )^2=c^2

4+89=c^2

c= $\sqrt{93}$ <-- length of dotted line (diagonal)
