Pam has 90 m of fencing to enclose an area in a petting zoo with two dividers to separate three types of young animals. The thre

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

The area function is

$A=\frac{135}{2}x-\frac{9}{2}x^2$ .

The domain and range of A is $(0,15m)$ and $(0, 253.125 m^2]$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given length of fencing is $90 m$ .

Let the length and width of each pen be $x$ and $y$ respectively as shown in the figure.

As there are 3 pens, so, the total area,

$A= 3 xy \;\cdots (i)$

From the figure the total length of fencing is $6x+4y$ .

Here, for a significant area for the animals, $x>0$ as well as $y>0$ as $x$ and $y$ are the sides of ben.

From the given value:

$6x+4y=90\;\cdots (ii)$

$\Rightarrow y=\frac {45}{2}-\frac{3x}{2}$

Now, from equation (i)

$A=3x\left(\frac {45}{2}-\frac{3x}{2}\right)$

$\Rightarrow A=\frac{135}{2}x-\frac{9}{2}x^2\;\cdots (iii)$

This is the required area function in the terms of variable $x$ .

For the domain of area function, from equation (ii)

$x=15-\frac{2y}{3}$

$\Rightarrow x$ [as y>0]

So, the domain of area function is $(0,15m)$ .

For the range of area function:

As $x \rightarrow 0$ or $y\rightarrow 0$ , then $A\rightarrow 0$ [from equation (i)]

$\Rightarrow A>0$

Now, differentiate the area function with respect to $x$ .

$\frac {dA}{dx}=\frac{135}{2}-9x$

Equate $\frac {dA}{dx}$ to zero to get the extremum point.

$\frac {dA}{dx}=0$

$\Rightarrow \frac{135}{2}-9x=0$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{15}{2}$

Check this point by double differentiation

$\frac {d^2A}{dx^2}=-9$

As, $\frac {d^2A}{dx^2}$ , so, point $x=\frac{15}{2}$ is corresponding to maxima.

Put this value back to equation (iii) to get the maximum value of area function. We have

$A=\frac{135}{2}\times \frac {15}{2}-\frac{9}{2}\times \left(\frac {15}{2}\right)^2$

$\Rightarrow A=253.125 m^2$

Hence, the range of area function is $(0, 253.125 m^2]$ .

Factorise fully p^3 + p^2

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{p^3+p^2=p^2(p+1)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$p^3+p^2\\\\p^3=p^{2+1}=p^2\cdot p\\\\p^3+p^2=p^2\cdot p+p^2\cdot1=p^2(p+1)$

Used:

$a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\\text{distributive property}:\ a(b+c)=ab+ac$

What is the equation written in vertex form of a parabola with a vertex of (–1, 8) that passes through (1, 0)?

Archy [21]

Answer:

y = -2(x + 1)^2 + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola can be written in the form;

y = a(x-h)^2 + k

where a is the multiplier (h,k) is the vertex

so h = -1 and k = 8

Plug in these values

y = a(x + 1)^2 + 8

So to get the value of a, we use the point where the parabola passes through which is the point (1,0)

Simply substitute the values of x and y

0 = a(1 + 1)^2 + 8

0 = a(2)^2 + 8

-8 = 4a

a = -8/4

a = -2

So therefore the equation of the parabola is ;

y = -2(x + 1)^2 + 8
