A man travels 6 1/4 [mixed fraction] km in 1 hour. How many kilometers does he travel in 6 1/2 [also a mixed fraction] hours? ​

Answer:

13 1/8 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the man walks 3 3/4 km in 1 hour,

=> Speed of the man = 15/4 kmph

Distance walked by the man in 7/2 hours (3 1/2 hours) is,

= 15/4 * 7/2 = 105/8 km = 13 1/8 km

A rectangular field with one side along a river is to be fenced. Suppose that no fence is needed along the river, the fence on t
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

a) Side Parallel to the river: 200 ft

b) Each of the other sides: 400 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent side parallel to the river and W represent width of fence.

The required fencing (F) would be F=L+2W.

We have been given that field must contain 80,000 square feet. This means area of field must be equal to 80,000.

LW=80,000...(1)

We are told that the fence on the side opposite the river costs $20 per foot, and the fence on the other sides costs $5 per foot, so total cost (C) of fencing would be C=20L+5(2W)\Rightarrow 20L+10W.

From equation (1), we will get:

L=\frac{80,000}{W}

Upon substituting this value in cost equation, we will get:

C=20(\frac{80,000}{W})+10W

C=\frac{1600,000}{W}+10W

C=1600,000W^{-1}+10W

To minimize the cost, we need to find critical points of the the derivative of cost function as:

C'=-1600,000W^{-2}+10

-1600,000W^{-2}+10=0

-1600,000W^{-2}=-10

-\frac{1600,000}{W^2}=-10

-10W^2=-1,600,000

W^2=160,000

\sqrt{W^2}=\pm\sqrt{160,000}  

W=\pm 400

Since width cannot be negative, therefore, the width of the fencing would be 400 feet.

Now, we will find the 2nd derivative as:

C''=-2(-1600,000)W^{-3}

C''=3200,000W^{-3}

C''=\frac{3200,000}{W^3}

Now, we will substitute W=400 in 2nd derivative as:

C''(400)=\frac{3200,000}{400^3}=\frac{3200,000}{64000000}=0.05

Since 2nd derivative is positive at W=400, therefore, width of 400 ft of the fencing will minimize the cost.

Upon substituting W=400 in L=\frac{80,000}{W}, we will get:

L=\frac{80,000}{400}\\\\L=200

Therefore, the side parallel to the river will be 200 feet.

Angela is shopping for pet supplies and needs to buy a kennel and several toys. At Paws R Us, she would pay $50.75 for the kenne
zhenek [66]

Answer: t>6

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount to pay = Cost of kennel + (Cost per toy )x (Number of toys)

Let t = the number of pet toys Angela would need to buy for Paws R Us to be the cheaper option.​

Given, At Paws R Us, she would pay $50.75 for the kennel and $3.75 for each pet toy.

Amount to pay =  $(50.75 + 3.75t)

At Truth or Tail, she would pay $43.25 for the kennel and $5 for each pet toy.

Amount to pay =  $(43.25 + 5t)

According to the question , we have

50.75 + 3.75t < 43.25 + 5t

Subtract 3.75t from both sides

50.75+ 3.75t -3.75t   < 43.25 + 5t -3.75t

⇒ 50.75< 43.25 +1.25 t

Subtract  43.25 from both sides, we get

50.75 - 43.25 < 1.25 t

⇒  7.5< 1.25 t

Divide both sides by 1.25 we get

⇒   6<t

Hence, the required inequality to represent t, the number of pet toys Angela would need to buy for Paws R Us to be the cheaper option:

t>6 .
