<h2>Answer</h2>
Cost of lectures = $7.33 per hour
<h2>Explanation</h2>Let the cost of the exam hours
Let be the cost of the workshop hours
Let be the cost of the lecture hours.
We know from our problem that exam hours cost twice as much as workshop, so:
equation (1)
We also know that workshop hours cost twice as much as lecture hours, so:
equation (2)
Finally, we also know that 3hr exams 24hr workshops and 12hr lectures cost $528, so:
equation (1)
Now, lets find the value of :
Step 1. Solve for in equation (3)
equation (4)
Step 2. Replace equation (1) in equation (4) and simplify
equation (5)
Step 3. Replace equation (2) in equation (5) and solve for
Cost of lectures = $7.33 per hour
First let's solve the general case for an isosceles triangle of base 2 and height k. If the triangle is drawn so the base is on the x-axis and the apex is on the y-axis, the equation for the line containing the right side is
y = -k(x-1)
Then a rectangle with x-dimension w will have an area that is the product of this width and the height y = -k((w/2)-1).
area = w(-k(w/2 -1)) = (-k/2)w² +kw
The derivative of area with respect to w will be zero where the area is a maximum:
d(area)/dw = 0 = -kw +k
w = 1 . . . . . . add kw and divide by k
Using the formula for area, we find
area = 1(-k(1/2-1)) = k/2
This value is 1/2 the total area of the triangle we started with.
If the side lengths of your triangle are 8, √80, and √80, the height will be given by the Pythagorean theorem as
h = √((√80)² - (1/2·8)²) = √(80-16) = 8
Your triangle's area will be
triangle area = (1/2)(8)(8) = 32
The maximum area of the inscribed rectangle will be half this value,
16 square units
y = -k(x-1)
Then a rectangle with x-dimension w will have an area that is the product of this width and the height y = -k((w/2)-1).
area = w(-k(w/2 -1)) = (-k/2)w² +kw
The derivative of area with respect to w will be zero where the area is a maximum:
d(area)/dw = 0 = -kw +k
w = 1 . . . . . . add kw and divide by k
Using the formula for area, we find
area = 1(-k(1/2-1)) = k/2
This value is 1/2 the total area of the triangle we started with.
If the side lengths of your triangle are 8, √80, and √80, the height will be given by the Pythagorean theorem as
