A pigpen is to be enclosed using 640 m of fencing along three of its sides, the fourth side being a barn. Determine the dimensio

Basile [38]

Answer:

$W_{max}=480m\\ L_{max}=160m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know we only have 640 feet of fence available, we know that L + W + L = 640, $\implies$ 2L + W = 640. This allows us to represent the width, W, in terms of L: W = 640 – 2L

Remember, the area of a rectangle is equal to the product of its width and length, therefore,

$A_{\rm pigpen}=L(640-2L)\implies 640L-2L^2$

Notice that, quadratic has been vertically reflected, since the coefficient on the squared term is negative, so the graph will open downwards, and the vertex will be a maximum value for the area.

recall,

$x_{max}=-b/2a$
$f(x)_{max}=f(x_{max})$

Since our function is A(L)=640L-2L², we get

a=-2
b=640

plug in the value of a and b into the first formula:

$L_{max}=-(640)/2(-2)\implies 160$

$A(L)_{max}=640(160)-2(160)^2\implies 76800$

hence,the dimensions of the pen that will maximize the area are L=160m and W=76800/160=480m

and we're done!

Answer:

1. x= -56.25

Expand

19.5-6.5x+36=201-4.5x-33

Simplify

-6.5x+55.5=201-4.5x-33

Simplify again

6.5x+55.5=-4.5x+168

Add 6.5 to both sides

55.5=-4.5x+168+6.5x

Simplify

55.5=2x+168

Subtract

55.5-168=2x

Simplify

112.5=2x

Divide both sides by 2

−112.5÷2 = x

Simplfy

x = -56.25

2. x > -7 ÷ 4

Or

Decimal Form: -1.75

Remove parentheses

12x>4x+5−19

Simplify

12x>4x-14

Subtract

12x-4x>-14

Simplify

8x>-14

Divide both sides by 8

x > -14 ÷ 8

Simplify

x > -7 ÷ 4

Or

Decimal Form: -1.75

3. Answer: Step 2 has an error

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation,

2(10 - 13x) = -34x + 60

By distributive property,

20 - 26x = -34x + 60

Now, we need to isolate x on the left side of the equation,

For this we need to eliminate constant term from the left side,

20 will be eliminated by subtracting 20 from both sides ( subtraction property of equality )

I.e. Step 2 has an error,

We need to use subtraction property of equality instead of using addition property of Equality,

Note : The correct steps would be,

Step 2 : 20 - 26x = -34x + 60 ( Subtraction property of equality )

Step 3 : 8x = 40 ( addition property of Equality )

Step 4 : x = 5 ( Division Property of Equality )

Hope this helps!!! Good luck!!! ;)

sweet [91]

We have been given in a cohort of 35 graduating students, there are three different prizes to be awarded. We are asked that in how many different ways could the prizes be awarded, if no student can receive more than one prize.

To solve this problem we will use permutations.

$_{r}^{n}\textrm{P}={_{3}^{35}\textrm{P}}$

We know that formula for permutations is given as

$_{r}^{n}\textrm{P}=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$

On substituting the given values in the formula we get,

${_{3}^{35}\textrm{P}}=\frac{35!}{(35-3)!}=\frac{35!}{32!}$

$=\frac{35\cdot 34\cdot 33\cdot 32!}{32!}\\
\\
=35\cdot 34\cdot 33=39270$

Therefore, there are 39270 ways in which prizes can be awarded.

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

The answer is x + 160 = 459

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find this answer by understanding what the variable is. Once you find that the rest is easy. You know that the cost of the peak II is $459. You also know that the peak II is $160 more than rider/variable so, 459 - 160 = 299
