Answer:

The width which gives the greatest area is 7.5 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an application of differential calculus. Given the area as a function of the width, we simply need to differentiate the function with respect to x and equate to zero which yields; 15-2x=0 since the slope of the graph is zero at the turning points. Solving for x yields, x=7.5 which indeed maximizes the area of the pen

xYou volunteer to help drive children at a charity event to the​ zoo, but you can fit only 6 of the 16 children present in your
brilliants [131]

There are 8008 groups in total, in other to drive the children

<h3>How to determine the number of groups?</h3>

From the question, we have

  • Total number of children, n = 16
  • Numbers to children at once, r = 6

The number of group of children that could be carried at once is calculated using the following combination formula

Total = ⁿCᵣ

Where

n = 16 and r = 6

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Total = ¹⁶C₆

Apply the combination formula

ⁿCᵣ = n!/(n - r)!r!

So, we have

Total = 16!/10!6!

Evaluate

Total = 8008

Hence, the number of groups is 8008
