Answer:

38.57 cm × 28.93 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of the poster  ( in cm ) and y be the height ( in cm ) of the poster,

Then the area of the poster,

A = x × y

∵ The top and bottom margins of a poster are 6 cm and the side margins are each 8 cm,

Thus, the total area of the poster other than printed material = 2(6x) + 2(8y) - 4(48)   ( shown in the below diagram )

= 12x + 16y - 192

We have the printed area = 382 cm²

So, the area of the poster = printed area + non printed area

= 382 + 12x + 16y - 192

= 190 + 12x + 16y

∵ Area of the poster, A = xy

⇒ xy = 190 + 12x + 16y

⇒ y(x-16) = 190 + 12x

⇒ y=\frac{190+12x}{x-16}----(1)

Area of the poster,

A(x)=x(\frac{190+12x}{x-16})

=\frac{190x+12x^2}{x-16}

Differentiating with respect to x,

A'(x)=\frac{(x-16)(190+24x)-(190x+24x^2)(1)}{(x-16)^2}

=\frac{12x^2-384x-3040}{(x-16)^2}

Again differentiating with respect to x,

y''=\frac{12224}{(x-16)^3}

For maxima or minima,

y'=0

\implies \frac{12x^2-384x-3040}{(x-16)^2}=0

\implies 12x^2-384x-3040=0

\implies x\approx 38.57\text{ or }x\approx -6.57

Since, dimension can not be negative,

If x = 38.57,

A''(x) = positive

Hence, A(x) is minimum,

From equation (1),

y=\frac{190+12(38.57)}{38.57-16}=28.93

Therefore, the required dimensions are 38.57 cm × 28.93 cm

Answer:

The total height and width of the poster is approximately 28.93 and 38.57.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let us consider the width and length of the printed part of the poster is x and y respectively.

For better understanding refer the figure 1:

The area of the printed part is 382 cm²

Area = xy = 382

y = 382/x

Now the total height of the poster is y + 6 + 6 = y + 12

Total width of the poster is x + 8 + 8 = x + 16

Thus the total area of the poster is:

A = (x + 16)(y + 12)

Now substitute the value of y in above equation.

A = (x+16)(\frac{382}{x}+12)

A = 382+12x+\frac{6112}{x}+192

A = 12x+\frac{6112}{x}+574

Now differentiate the above equation with respect to x.

A' = 12-\frac{6112}{x^2}

Now, substitute A'= 0 and solve for x.

0 = 12-\frac{6112}{x^2}

12=\frac{6112}{x^2}

x^2=\frac{6112}{12}

x=22.57 Ignore the negative value of x as width can't be a negative number.

Now find A''

A'' = \frac{2(6112)}{x^3}

Here A" is positive for x>0 and x = 22.57 is minimum.

Use the value of x to find all the respective dimensions of the poster.

Substitute the value of x in y = 382/x

y = 382/22.57 = 16.93

The total height of the poster is y + 6 + 6 = y + 12 = 16.93 + 12 = 28.93

Total width of the poster is x + 8 + 8 = x + 16 = 22.57 + 16 = 38.57

Hence, the total height and width of the poster is approximately 28.93 and 38.57.

5x+12=44 then value of 5x-12=?​
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

If 5x+12=44 then value of 5x-12 is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 12 = 44

  • The first step, we have to find the value of x

5x + 12 = 44

5x = 44 - 12

5x = 32

x = 32/5

x = 6.4

  • After that, insert the value of x into 5x - 12

5x - 12 = ...

5 ( 32/5 ) - 12

= 32 - 12

= 20
