A woman wishes to rent a house within 9 miles of her work. If she lives x miles from her work, her transportation cost will be c

x dollars per year, while her rent will be 4c/( x + 1) dollars per year, where c is a constant taking various situational factors into account. How far should she live from work to minimize her combined expenses for rent and transportation? Use the methods outlined in this section to find the minimum.

Answer:

the woman has to live 1 mile from work to minimize the expenses

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

the distance within 9 miles ⇒ 0 < x > 9

Total costs Q = cx + 4c/( x + 1)

costs should be minimum  ⇒ dQ/dx = 0

⇒ d/dx [ cx + 4c/( x + 1) ] = 0

⇒ ( x + 1)² = 4

take square root of both side

√[ ( x + 1)² ] = √4

x + 1 = 2

x = 2 - 1

x = 1

Therefore, the woman has to live 1 mile from work to minimize the expenses

What is the measure of o
Helga [31]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We need the formula for arc length (in radians) to solve this problem. The formula is:

s=r \theta

Where

s is the arc length

r is the radius of the circle

\theta is the intercepted angle

In this diagram, we can see that  \theta  is beign intercepted by the big arc with measure 20 cm. So arc length, s, is 20

Also, if we look, we see that the radius is 5 cm, so r = 5

Now, we substitute into formula and find \theta:

s=r\theta\\20=5\theta\\\theta=\frac{20}{5}\\\theta=4

This is given in radians, so \theta is 4 radians

D is the correct answer choice.
