There is a rectangular lot in the garden, with 6 ft in length and 4 ft in width. You plan to expand the lot by an equal length a

round its four sides, and make the area of the expanded rectangle 48 ft^2. How long should you expand the original lot in four directions?
You should expand the original lot by…
Please type ft to represent feet.

Answer:

  • 2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • l = 6 ft
  • w = 4 ft
  • Extended area = 48 ft²
  • Extension= x

<u>Find x:</u>

  • (6 + x)(4 + x) = 48
  • x² + 10x + 24 = 48
  • x² + 10x + 25 = 49
  • (x + 5)² = 49
  • x + 5 = 7
  • x = 7 - 5
  • x = 2

So the amount you are increasing it by is equal on both sides. Firstly let’s look at the factors of 48, (1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24 and 48) the only factors that are can be equal increase from 4 and 6 is by 2 ft giving us a length of 8 and a width of 6

How do you do this question?
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Solution : Option B, or 9π

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that y = x, x = 3, and y = 0.

Now assume we have a circle that models the given information. The radius will be x, so to determine the area of that circle we have πx². And knowing that x = 3 and y = 0, we have the following integral:

\int _0^3

So our set up for solving this problem, would be such:

\int _0^3x^2\pi \:

By solving this integral we receive our solution:

\int _0^3x^2\pi dx,\\\mathrm{Take\:the\:constant\:out}:\quad \int a\cdot f\left(x\right)dx=a\cdot \int f\left(x\right)dx\\=> \pi \cdot \int _0^3x^2dx\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Power\:Rule}:\quad \int x^adx=\frac{x^{a+1}}{a+1}\\=> \pi \left[\frac{x^{2+1}}{2+1}\right]^3_0\\=> \pi \left[\frac{x^3}{3}\right]^3_0\\\mathrm{Compute\:the\:boundaries}: \left[\frac{x^3}{3}\right]^3_0=9\\\mathrm{Substitute:9\pi }

As you can tell our solution is option b, 9π. Hope that helps!

Find the general solution to the differential equation modeling how a person learns:
Luda [366]

Here we want to solve differential equations, we will see that the general solution is:

y = A*e^{-t} + 100

We want to solve the differential equation:

\frac{dy}{dt}  = 100 - y

From this is pretty clear that y is an exponential function, with an exponent of -1*t.

We can write it generally as:

y = A*e^{-t} + B\\\\\frac{dy}{dt}  = -A*e^{-t}

Then if we set B = 100 we get:

y = A*e^{-t} + 100\\\\\frac{dy}{dt}  = -A*e^{-t} \\\\\frac{dy}{dt}  = -A*e^{-t} - 100 + 100 = -y + 100

So we just found the general form of the function.

Now we have two cases:

A) y(0) = 35

y(0) = A*e^{-0} + 100  = 35\\=  A + 100 = 35\\\\A = 35 - 100 = -65

In this case, the function is:

y = -65*e^{-t} + 100

B) y(0) = 125

125 = A*e^0 + 100\\\\\125 - 100 = A\\\\25 = A

In this case, the function is:

y = 25*e^{-t} + 100

Now we want to see which one of the two can represent how a person learns. Just look at the graph below:

The green line is the one for y(0) = 35, and the blue one is for y(0) = 125.

Notice that for small values of t, the blue function is really large, thus it can't really model how a person learns (is larger for smaller values of t than for larger values).

So y(0) = 35 represents better how a <em>person can learn</em> (but not exactly, because you can see that it eventually becomes almost constant, which is something that really does not happen) so the correct option is <u>D: none of the above.</u>
