Need to make a rectangular pen for pigs that will enclose a total area of 169 square feet. What is the least amount of fencing that will be needed?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The least amount of fencing needed for the rectangular pen is 72.19 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area and perimeter equations of the pen are, respectively:

[tex]p = 2\cdot (x + y)[/tex] (1)

[tex]A = x\cdot y[/tex] (2)

Where:

[tex]p[/tex] - Perimeter, in feet.

[tex]A[/tex] - Area, in square feet.

[tex]x[/tex] - Width, in feet.

[tex]y[/tex] - Length, in feet.

Let suppose that total area is known and perimeter must be minimum, then we have a system of two equations with two variables, which is solvable:

From (2):

[tex]y = \frac{A}{x}[/tex]

(2) in (1):

[tex]p = 2\cdot \left(x + \frac{A}{x}\right)[/tex]

And the first and second derivatives of the expression are, respectively:

[tex]p' = 2\cdot \left(1 -\frac{A}{x^{2}} \right)[/tex] (3)

[tex]p'' = \frac{4\cdot A}{x^{3}}[/tex] (4)

Then, we perform the First and Second Derivative Test to the function:

First Derivative Test

[tex]2\cdot \left(x - \frac{A}{x^{2}} \right) = 0[/tex]

[tex]2\cdot \left(\frac{x^{3}-A}{x^{2}} \right) = 0[/tex]

[tex]x^{3} - A = 0[/tex]

Given that dimensions of the rectangular pen must positive nonzero variables:

[tex]x^{3} = A[/tex]

[tex]x = \sqrt[3]{A}[/tex]

Second Derivative Test

[tex]p'' = 4[/tex]

In a nutshell, the critical value for the width of the pen leads to a minimum perimeter.

If we know that [tex]A = 169\,ft^{2}[/tex], then the value of the perimeter of the rectangular pen is:

[tex]x = \sqrt[3]{169\,ft^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]x \approx 5.529\,ft[/tex]

By (2):

[tex]y = \frac{A}{x}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{169\,ft^{2}}{5.529\,ft}[/tex]

[tex]y = 30.566\,ft[/tex]

Lastly, by (1):

[tex]p = 2\cdot (5.529\,ft + 30.566\,ft)[/tex]

[tex]p = 72.19\,ft[/tex]

The least amount of fencing needed for the rectangular pen is 72.19 feet.

What is the slope of the line 3x -9y =4?

Answers

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x -9y =4

To find the slope get the equation in slope intercept form ( y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept)

Subtract 3x from each side

-9y = -3x+4

Divide each side by -9

-9y/-9 = -3x/-9 +4/-9

y = 1/3x -4/9

The slope is 1/3 and the y intercept is -4/9

∆ Anwer :-

Here,

3x -9y =4

To find the slope get the equation in slope intercept form ( y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept)

Subtract 3x from each side

-9y = -3x+4

Divide each side by -9

-9y/-9 = -3x/-9 +4/-9

y = 1/3x -4/9

The slope is 1/3 and the y intercept is -4/9

Pls explain I’m having a hard time understanding the lesson

Answers

Answer:

x = 3.24, x = -1.24

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form for a quadratic equation is [tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]. For your equation a = 1, b = -2, c = -4. The quadratic formula you will be using is [tex]x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a}[/tex].

Plug in a = 1, b = -2, and c = -4 into the formula.

[tex]=\frac{-\left(-2\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-2\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \left(-4\right)}}{2\cdot \:1}[/tex]

We'll do the top part first:

[tex]\sqrt{\left(-2\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \left(-4\right)}[/tex]

Apply rule [tex]- (-a) = a[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{\left(-2\right)^2+4\cdot \:1\cdot \:4}[/tex]

Apply exponent rule [tex](-a)^{n} =a^n[/tex] if [tex]n[/tex] is even

[tex](-2)^2=2^2[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{2^2+4\cdot \:1\cdot \:4}[/tex]

Multiply the numbers

[tex]=\sqrt{2^2+16}[/tex]

[tex]2^2=4[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{4+16}[/tex]

Add

[tex]=\sqrt{20}[/tex]

The prime factorization of 20 is [tex]2^2*5[/tex]

20 divides by 2. 20 = 10 * 2

[tex]=2*10[/tex]

10 divides by 2. 10 = 5 * 2

[tex]=2* \:2*5[/tex]

2 & 5 are prime numbers so you don't need to factor them anymore

[tex]=2*2*5[/tex]

[tex]=2^2*5[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{2^2\cdot \:5}[/tex]

Apply radical rule [tex]\sqrt[n]{ab} =\sqrt[n]{a} \sqrt[n]{b}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{5}\sqrt{2^2}[/tex]

Apply radical rule [tex]\sqrt[n]{a^{n} } =a[/tex]; [tex]\sqrt{2^2} =2[/tex]

[tex]=2\sqrt{5}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{-\left(-2\right)\pm \:2\sqrt{5}}{2\cdot \:1}[/tex]

Because of the [tex]\pm[/tex] you have to separate the solutions so that one is positive and the other is negative.

[tex]x=\frac{-\left(-2\right)+2\sqrt{5}}{2\cdot \:1},\:x=\frac{-\left(-2\right)-2\sqrt{5}}{2\cdot \:1}[/tex]

Positive x:

[tex]\frac{-\left(-2\right)+2\sqrt{5}}{2\cdot \:1}[/tex]

Apply rule [tex]-(-a)=a[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{2+2\sqrt{5}}{2\cdot \:1}[/tex]

Multiply

[tex]=\frac{2+2\sqrt{5}}{2}[/tex]

Factor [tex]2+2\sqrt{5}[/tex] and rewrite it as [tex]=2\cdot \:1+2\sqrt{5}[/tex]. Factor out 2 because it is the common term. [tex]=2\left(1+\sqrt{5}\right)[/tex].

[tex]=\frac{2\left(1+\sqrt{5}\right)}{2}[/tex]

Divide 2 by 2

[tex]x=1+\sqrt{5}[/tex] or [tex]x=3.24[/tex] (You'll probably have to use a calculator for the square root of 5)

^Repeating the process of positive x for negative x in order to get [tex]x=1-\sqrt{5}[/tex] or [tex]x=-1.24[/tex]

The private school enrolled 1050 new students last year and the number of students enrolled this year decreased to 798.What was the percentage decrease in the number of students enrolled?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Decreased students = 1050 - 798 = 252

Decreased percentage = (decreased students ÷ number of last year students) * 100

Answer:

24%

Step-by-step explanation:

% change = [tex]\frac{difference}{original amount}[/tex] x 100

7 is a prime number

Answer:

The difference is 3 for 4-7, and 39 for 52-91. So basically its a change of 3 for every 4-7 I think this is what you ask for. Let me explain and show results and then pick what you need.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we know 4 to 7 is 3.

52 to 91 is 39.

So one is a change in 3. the other is a change is 39.

However, could these be the same, just bigger?

Lets divide the 52 to 91 with a change of 39 by 4 to 7 with a change of 3:

52/4 to 91/7 with a change of 39/3 =

13 to 13 with a change of 13.

So this tells us that the 52 to 91 with a chang eof 3 is 13 times bigger than 4 to 7 with a change of 3.

Hope this helps!

The equation of line with slope 'm' and y intercept at point 'b' is given as;

⇒ y = mx + b

Given that;

Two lines intersected by a third line.

Since, When two lines are parallel to each other and two lines intersected by a third line then, third lines are transversal.

So, Here it is not given two lines are parallel.

....Whats the answer? NEEDED ASAP

Answers

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

4+2(x-4) = -7(x+7)

First, work out parenthesis: 4+ 2x-8 = -7x -49

Combine like terms: 2x-4= -7x-49

now isolate x by first adding 49 to each side: 2x+45= -7x

Then subtract 2x from each side: 45= -9x

Last, divide both sides by -9:

x= -5

Answer:

The answer is negative five or -5.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to distribute your equation and at the end, the -4 should be just 2x - 8.

Second, subtract the numbers 4 and -8, which will equal to -4.

Third, rearrange your terms. Those terms would be -4 + 2x, so it should be 2x - 4.

Fourth, distribute again but with -7(x + 7) and you should get -7x - 49.

Fifth, add four to both sides of your equation. It should be like 2x - 4 + 4 = -7x - 49 + 4.

Sixth, add the numbers for the both sides. Therefore, you have 2x = -7x - 45.

Seventh, add 7x to both sides of the equation. You add it to 2x and -7x - 45 + 7x.

Eighth, simplify by combining like terms which you get 9x = -45.

Ninth, divide both of the sides of your equation by the same term. Your number to use when diving is 9.

Tenth, simplify but cancel terms that are both the numerator and denominator. Then you divide the numbers and get -5.
