Answer:

9/4 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

If the rate is 3/4 gallon per 1/3 of an hour, we need to figure out how to make the 1/3 into 1 hour.

Since it's 1/3, you have to multiply it by 3 to get 1. So, multiply 1/3 and 3/4 by 3:

The rate will be 3(3/4) gallons per 3(1/3) hour

The rate will be 9/4 gallons per 1 hour

Hope that helps! :D

A rancher plans to make 4 identical and adjacent rectangular pens against a barn (see figure below), each with an area of 100 m^
Tasya [4]

Answer:

10 by 10 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

In calculus terms, you can use the formula for the perimeter which is 2l + 2w, and the area l × w.

Then since the area is 100

l × w = 100. So w = 100/l

Then substitute this into the perimeter formula.

w = 100/l → 2l + 2(w) = 2l + 2(100/l) = 2l + 200/l.

Then take the derivative d/dx [take the derivative of a quantity with respect to x], by using a simpler method known as the power rule:

d/dx[x^n] = nx^n-1

so p = 2l + 200/l becomes p' = 2 - 200/l^2

Since the derivative of a constant is 0, to solve for l, set p' to 0

0 = 2 - 200/l^2 → -200/l^2 = -2 → 200/l^2 = 2 → 2l^2 = 200 → l^2 = 100 → l = √100, l = 10.

Now that we know the length is 10, We can substitute the length in the original equation to find the width.

l = 10 → w = 100/l → w = 100/10, w = 10.

Therefore the perimeter of each rectangular pen is 40, with a length of 10 and width of 10.

If you want to do this algebraicly, there are more steps involved

There are eight dogs at the veterinarian
kotegsom [21]

Answer: Treats are an essential part of positive reinforcement, rewards-based training, but you also need to be mindful to balance your dog’s treats with their overall daily calories. Give them too many treats and you won’t just spoil their appetite for actual meals, but you could also make your dog overweight and unhealthy.
