Answer:
20 ft by 60 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
"What should the dimensions of the garden be to maximize this area?"
If y is the length of the garden, parallel to the stream, and x is the width of the garden, then the amount of fencing is:
120 = 3x + y
And the area is:
A = xy
Use substitution:
A = x (120 − 3x)
A = -3x² + 120x
This is a downward facing parabola. The maximum is at the vertex, which we can find using x = -b/(2a).
x = -120 / (2 · -3)
x = 20
When x = 20, y = 60. So the garden should be 20 ft by 60 ft.
C: Moved down and to the left
Answer:
7.84 × 10
^7
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>Tan(x) = sin(x) / cos(x). Therefore, tan(x) pi/2 = 1/0, which doesn't exist. Imagine that, instead of 0, it's a number incredibly close to 0. The smaller the number in the denominator, the bigger the outcome. Therefore, we can think of 1/0 as infinity, or approaching infinity as one gets closer to 1/0. This is the same result approaching from the negative side, only it's negative infinity. If x=0, it's 0/1 instead (sin 0=0, cos 0=1). Anything divided by 1 is itself, so as x approaches 0, so does f(x).</span>
