Answer: A 24 cm piece of string is cut into two pieces , one piece is used to form a circle and the other piece is used to form a square.
How should this string be cut so that the sum of the areas is a minimum .
:
Let x = the circumference of the circle
then
(24-x) = the perimeter of the square
:
Find the area of the circle
find r
2*pi*r = x
r =
Find the area of the circle
A =
A =
A = sq/cm, the area of the circle
:
Find the area of the square
A = sq/cm the area of the square
The total area
At = +
Graph this equation, find the min
Min occurs when x=10.6 cm
cut string 10.6 cm from one end

1908
Step-by-step explanation:2% of 1800 is 36 36 x 3 is 108 + 1800 =1908
154 yd ²
the formula is (b • h) / 2 = A
so plug it in (14 • 22) / 2 = 154
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x+5+x+7x-5=180 degree (being the interior angles of a triangle)
9x=180
x=180/9
x=20 degree
Answer:
Dimes = x = 52
Nickels = y = 39
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Dimes = x
Nickels = y
x + y = 91 (1)
0.10x + 0.05y = 7.15 (2)
From (1)
x = 91 - y
Substitute x = 91 - y into (2)
0.10x + 0.05y = 7.15
0.10(91 - y) + 0.05y = 7.15
9.10 - 0.10y + 0.05y = 7.15
- 0.10y + 0.05y = 7.15 - 9.10
-0.05y = -1.95
y = -1.95 / 0.05
= 39
Substitute y = 39 into (1)
x + y = 91
x + 39 = 91
x = 91 - 39
x = 52
Dimes = x = 52
Nickels = y = 39
