A daycare facility is enclosing a rectangular area along the side of their building for the children to play outdoors. They need to maximize the area using 180ft of fencing on three sides of the yard. The quadratic equation A=−2x2+180x gives the area, A, of the yard for the length, x, of the building that will border the yard. Find the length of the building that should border the yard to maximize the area, and then find the maximum area.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) length x = 45ftb) maximum area = 4050 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic equation A=−2x2+180x that gives the area A of the yard for the length x, to maximize the area of the yard then dA/dx must be equal to zero i.e dA/dx = 0

If A=−2x²+180x

dA/dx = -4x + 180 = 0

-4x + 180 = 0

Add 4x to both sides

-4x + 180 + 4x = 0 + 4x

180 = 4x

x = 180/4

x = 45

Hence the length of the building that should border the yard to maximize the area is 45 ft

To find the maximum area, we will substitute x = 45 into the modelled equation of the area i.e A=−2x²+180x

A = -2(45)²+180(45)

A = -2(2025)+8100

A = -4050 + 8100

A = 4050 ft²

Hence the maximum area of the yard is equal to 4050 ft²

You have to create 3 functions to make hills on a grap

Requirements are in the photo.
(ignore graphs)

4. Write equations for three hills that do meet the requirements. Sketch them on one axis. (For the
purposes of this exercise, this is a sketch, so the steepness and minimums and maximums of the
graphs do not need to be exact). (6 points: 1 point for each equation, 1 point for each sketched curve)

Answers

Answer:

Hill 1: F(x)  = -(x + 4)(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 1)(x - 3)(x - 4)

Hill 2: F(x)  = -(x + 4)(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 1)(x - 3)(x - 4)

Hill 3: F(x) = 4(x - 2)(x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hill 1

You must go up and down to make a peak, so your function must cross the x-axis six times. You need six zeros.

Also, the end behaviour must have F(x) ⟶ -∞ as x ⟶ -∞ and F(x) ⟶ -∞ as x⟶ ∞. You need a negative sign in front of the binomials.

One possibility is

F(x)  = -(x + 4)(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 1)(x - 3)(x - 4)

Hill 2

Multiplying the polynomial by -½ makes the slopes shallower. You must multiply by -2 to make them steeper. Of course, flipping the hills converts them into valleys.

Adding 3 to a function shifts it up three units. To shift it three units to the right, you must subtract 3 from each value of x.

The transformed function should be

F(x)  = -2(x +1)(x)(x -2)(x -3)(x - 6)(x - 7)

Hill 3

To make a shallow parabola, you must divide it by a number. The factor should be ¼, not 4.

The zeroes of your picture run from -4 to +7.

One of the zeros of your parabola is +5 (2 less than 7).

Rather than put the other zero at ½, I would put it at (2 more than -4) to make the parabola cover the picture more evenly.

The function could be

F(x) = ¼(x - 2)(x + 5).

In the image below, Hill 1 is red, Hill 2 is blue, and Hill 3 is the shallow black parabola.

Part of the population of 6,250 elk at a wildlife preserve is infected with a parasite. A random sample of 50 elk shows that 6 of them are infected. How many elk are likely to be infected? Based on the sample, there will likely be infected elk in the wildlife preserve.

Answers

Answer: 750

====================================================

Explanation:

6 in the sample of 50 are infected, so 6/50 = 12/100 = 12% are infected in the sample. We expect this percentage to carry over to the entire population assuming we picked a representative random sample that isn't biased.

12% of 6250 = 0.12*650 = 750 is the expected number of infected individuals in the population.

----------

Here's an alternative way you can solve through a proportion

(number infected)/(total) = (number infected)/(total)

6/50 = x/6250

6*6250 = 50x ... cross multiply

37500 = 50x

50x = 37500

x = 37500/50 ... divide both sides by 50

x = 750

I NEED HELP ASAP FOR THIS MATH QUESTION

Answers

Answer:

The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to isolate the variable you are look for, 'l'. First subtract [pi]L from both sides. Then subtract S from both sides.

-[pi]L+S=[pi]r(superscript)2 ->

-[pi]L=[pi]r(superscript)2-S

Now, since you have your variable 'l', you want to remove the [pi] away from your variable. To do this, multiply by negative 1 divided by pi, or -1/[pi].

L=S-r(superscript)2.

Therefore, the answer is C.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]s = \pi .l \: + \pi. {r}^{2} [/tex]

Make the term including 'l' stand alone.

[tex]s - \pi. {r }^{2} = \pi.l[/tex]

Now make L stand alone by dividing through by pi.

[tex] \frac{s - \pi. {r}^{2} }{\pi} = l[/tex]

This is the same as

[tex] \frac{s}{\pi} - {r}^{2} = l[/tex]

jack has 13 lengths of rope. Each is 6 3/4 meters long. How much rope does Jack have to divide amond 20 people

Answers

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

First we multiply the the length of each length of rope by the number of lengths of rope (try saying that five times fast).

6 3/4×13=87 3/4

Now, we divide this by 20 to see how much rope each person gets.

87 3/4÷20= 4 31/80

Therefore, each person has 4 31/80 or 4.3875 meters of rope.

The sum of Rhonda and her daughter Tenica’s age is 64. The difference in their ages is 28. How old is each person?

Answers

Answer:

The mother (Rhoda) is 46 years old.

The daughter (Tenica) is 18 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of the mother (Rhoda) be m

Let the age of the daughter (Tenica) be d.

The sum of Rhonda and her daughter Tenica’s age is 64. This can be written as:

m + d = 64 ... (1)

The difference in their ages is 28. This can be written as:

m – d = 28 ... (2)

From the above illustrations, the equation obtained are:

m + d = 64 ... (1)

m – d = 28 ... (2)

Solving by elimination method:

Add equation 1 and 2 together

. m + d = 64

+ m – d = 28

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

2m = 92

Divide both side by 2

m = 92/2

m = 46

Substitute the value of m into any of the equation to obtain the value of d. Here, we shall use equation 1

m + d = 64

m = 46

46 + d = 64

Collect like terms

d = 64 – 46

d = 18

Therefore, the mother (Rhoda) is 46 years old and the daughter (Tenica) is 18 years old.

According to intersecting chords theorem, the products of the segments formed by one chord equals the product of the segments formed by the other.

Given that p=x^2-y^2/x^2+xy
I. Express p in the simplest form
ii. Find the value of p, if x=-4 and y=-6

Answers

Answer:

When x = -4 and y = -6, p = 37.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that p = x² - y²/x² + x·y, we have;

p = (x² × x² -y² + x·y×x²)/x²

p = (x²⁺² - y² + x¹⁺² × y)/x²

p = (x⁴ - y² + x³·y)/x²

Therefore, p in the simplest form is given as follows;

[tex]p = \dfrac{x^4 - y^2 + x^3 \cdot y }{x^2}[/tex]

To find the value of p when x = -4 and y = -6, we plug in the value of x and y into the above equation to get the following equation;

[tex]p = \dfrac{(-4)^4 - (-6)^2 + (-4)^3 \cdot (-6) }{(-4)^2} = 37.75[/tex]

Therefore, the value of p when x = -4 and y = -6 is equal to 37.75.
