Given the following equation where A = Area of a rectangle and w = width of the rectangle, what value of 'w' would maximize the area?

A = LW
P = 2L+2W
P = 100
w should be 625 units
w should be 25 units
w should be 0 units
w should be 50 units

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the second option : w should be 25 units

Step-by-step explanation:

the area of the rectangle is length×width = L×W

the perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W

now, we know that the perimeter is 100 units.

and we have to find the best length of W, that will then define L (to keep the 100 units of perimeter) and maximizes the area of the rectangle.

in other words, what is the maximum area of a rectangle with perimeter of 100 (and what are the corresponding side lengths)?

now, w = 625 is impossible. that side alone would be bigger than the whole perimeter.

W = 0 would render the whole rectangle to a flat line with L = 50 because of

100 = 2L + 2W = 2L + 0 = 2L

L = 50

and A = L×W = 50×0 = 0

an area of 0 is for sure not the largest possible area.

w = 50 would cause L = 0

100 = 2L + 2W = 2L + 2×50 = 2L + 100

0 = 2L

L = 0

and with L = 0 the same thing happens as with W = 0 : a flat line with 0 area.

so, the only remaining useful answer is W = 25

100 = 2L + 2W = 2L + 2×25 = 2L + 50

50 = 2L

L = 25

A = L×W = 25×25 = 625 units²

and indeed, the maximum area for a given perimeter is achieved by arranging the sides to create a square.

Answers

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior and exterior angle of a polygon is supplementary

let interior be I

let exterior be E

I + E = 180

Since the interior angle is 8 times that of an exterior angle,

8E + E = 180          [replacing I with 8E]  

9E = 180                

E = 20                      

The exterior angle is 20 degrees

I + E = 180          

I + 20 = 180      

I = 160              

The interior angle is 160 degrees.

The equation to find the interior angle of a polygon with 'n' number of sides is:

I = ( (n − 2) × 180 ) ⁄ n

We know the interior angle, so plug it in and solve for n:

160 = ( (n − 2) × 180 ) ⁄ n      

160n = (n − 2) × 180            

160n = 180n − 360                  

-20n = -360                            

n = 18

Another example of a number who's square root is greater than the number is  [tex]\sqrt{0.49}[/tex] which is 0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

This square root is larger than the number because it is a decimal. When you multiply a decimal by a decimal, the decimal point becomes greater. For example: 0.7 multiplied by 0.7 equals 0.49 which has 2 decimal places, while 0.7 only has one.

<D = 64.01°

Answered by GAUTHMATH

For right triangle EFD,  m ∠F ≈ 26°, m ∠D ≈ 64.01° and FD = 89

The correct answer is an option (B)

What is hypotenuse?

It is the longest side of the right triangle.

What is Pythagoras theorem?

For a right triangle,

[tex]a^{2}+ b^{2} = c^{2}[/tex], where c is hypotenuse and a, b area other two sides of the right triangle

For given example,

We have been given a right triangle EFD with hypotenuse FD.

Also, EF = 80, ED = 39

Using the Pythagoras theorem,

[tex]\Rightarrow FD^{2}= EF^{2} + ED^{2}\\\\ \Rightarrow FD^{2}= 80^{2} + 39^{2}\\\\ \Rightarrow FD^2 = 6400 + 1521\\\\ \Rightarrow FD^2 = 7921\\\\\Rightarrow FD = 89[/tex]

Consider, sin(F)

[tex]\Rightarrow sin(F)=\frac{ED}{FD} \\\\\Rightarrow sin(F)=\frac{39}{89}\\\\ \Rightarrow sin(F)=0.4382\\\\\Rightarrow \angle F=sin^{-1}(0.4382)\\\\\Rightarrow \angle F=25.98^{\circ}\\\\\Rightarrow \angle F\approx 26^{\circ}[/tex]

Now, consider sin(D)

[tex]\Rightarrow sin(D)=\frac{FE}{FD}\\\\ \Rightarrow sin(D)=\frac{80}{89}\\\\ \Rightarrow \angle D = sin^{-1}(0.8988)\\\\\Rightarrow \angle D = 64.009^{\circ}\\\\\Rightarrow \angle D \approx 64.01^{\circ}[/tex]

Therefore, for right triangle EFD,  m ∠F ≈ 26°, m ∠D ≈ 64.01° and FD = 89

A research historian is interested in finding sunken treasure in the Atlantic Ocean. She knows that her equipment is only good enough to recover items that are at a depth of 5 000 m or less. The speed of sound through the water is 1 530 m/s. While working, the sonar equipment detects a reflection that is of interest. The echo from the item takes 6.2 s to return to the sonar detector. Will she be able to retrieve this item?

Answers

Answer:

Yes, she will be able to retrieve the item

Step-by-step explanation:

The information with regards to the research historian interest in finding a sunken treasure are;

The depth from which the equipment can recover items = 5,000 m

The speed of sound through water, v = 1,530 m/s

The time it takes the echo from the item to return to the sonar detector, t = 6.2 s

Let d, represent the depth at which the item is located

Given that an echo travels from the sonar detector to the item and back to the sonar detector, the distance traveled by the sound wave which is received as an echo by the sonar detector = 2 × d

Velocity, v = Distance/time

∴ Distance = Velocity × Time

The distance traveled by the echo = 2 × d = v × t

2 × d = v × t

∴ 2 × d = 1,530 m/s × 6.2 s

d = (1,530 m/s × 6.2 s)/2 = 4,743 m

The depth at which the item is located, d = 4,743 m is less than the maximum depth the equipment can recover items, therefore, she will be able to retrieve the item.

Step-by-step explanation:

d = 0.0067[tex]v^{2}[/tex] + 0.15v

differentiate the function with respect to v to have;

d = 0.0134v - 0.15

given that the distance without skidding = 37 m (0.037 km) , then;

0.037 = 0.0134v - 0.15

0.0134v = 0.037 + 0.15

v = [tex]\frac{0.187}{0.0134}[/tex]

Find the discernment and the numbers of the number of real roots for this equation.
x^2+3x+8=0

Answers

Answer:  2 distinct complex solutions (ie non real solutions).

Work Shown:

The given equation is in the form ax^2+bx+c = 0, so

a = 1, b = 3, c = 8

Plug those into the formula below to find the discriminant

D = b^2 - 4ac

D = 3^2 - 4(1)(8)

D = -23

The discriminant is negative, so we get two nonreal solutions. The two solutions are complex numbers in the form a+bi, where a & b are real numbers and [tex]i = \sqrt{-1}[/tex]. The two solutions are different from one another.

Answer:

Discriminant: -23

Number of real roots: 0

Step-by-step explanation:

For a quadratic in standard form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex], the discriminant is given by [tex]b^2-4ac[/tex].

In [tex]x^2+3x+8[/tex], assign:

[tex]a\implies 1[/tex] [tex]b\implies 3[/tex] [tex]c\implies 8[/tex]  

The discriminant is therefore:

[tex]3^2-4(1)(8)=9-32=\boxed{-23}[/tex]

For any quadratic:

If the discriminant is greater than 0, the quadratic has two real rootsIf the discriminant is equal to 0, the quadratic has one real rootIf the discriminant is less than 0, the quadratic as no real roots

Since the quadratic in the question has a discriminant less than 0, there are no real solutions to this quadratic.

What is inequality ?

An inequality is a relation which makes a non-equal comparison between two numbers or other mathematical expressions. Inequality is used most often to compare two numbers on the number line by their size. There is always a definite equation to represent it.

How to form the given inequality equation ?

Let x be the number of passengers that can be added to the bus.

It is given that the bus has less than 42 seats and 36 seats are already occupied.

The sum of the remaining seats which are to be filled by the passenger and the 36 seats which are filled, must be less than the total seats that is 42.

Therefore the inequality equation becomes,

x + 36 < 42.

Thus, the inequality representing the possible number of passengers that can be added to the bus is Option(B) x + 36 < 42.

Answer:  Choice B.  5*sqrt(10)

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

Explanation:

It helps to add point labels. Let's place point A at the very top point of the triangle. Then point B will be at the 90 degree angle. Point C is the far left point. Lastly, point D is on segment BC such that DC = 3.

Since BC = 8 and CA = 17, we can use the pythagorean theorem to get...

(AB)^2 + (BC)^2 = (AC)^2

(AB)^2 + (8)^2 = (17)^2

(AB)^2 + 64 = 289

(AB)^2 = 289-64

(AB)^2 = 225

AB = sqrt(225)

AB = 15

Now focus on triangle ABD and apply the pythagorean theorem again to find side AD

(AB)^2 + (BD)^2 = (AD)^2

AD = sqrt(  (AB)^2 + (BD)^2  )

AD = sqrt(  (AB)^2 + (BC-CD)^2  )

AD = sqrt( (15)^2 + (8-3)^2 )

AD = sqrt(250)

AD = sqrt(25*10)

AD = sqrt(25)*sqrt(10)

AD = 5*sqrt(10) .... answer is choice B

Question # 16

Step One: Find the total area of two squares

Large square: 5 × 5 = 25

Small square: 2 × 2 = 4

25 + 4 = 29

Step Two: Find the area of the blank triangle

b = 5 + 2 = 7

h = 2

A = bh / 2

A = (7) (2) / 2

A = 14 / 2

A = 7

Step Three: Subtract the area of the blank triangle from the total area

Total area = 29

Area of Square = 7

29 - 7 = 22

-----------------------------------------------------------

Question # 17

Step One: Find the length of PT

Given:

PR = 4 cmRT = 6 cm

PT = PR + RT [Segment addition postulate]

PT = (4) + (6)

PT = 10 cm

Step Two: Find the length of S to PT perpendicularly

According to the diagonal are perpendicular to each other and congruent. Therefore, the length of S to PT perpendicularly is half of the diagonal

Length of Diagonal = 4 cm

4 ÷ 2 = 2 cm

Step Three: Find the area of ΔPST

b = PT = 10 cm

h = S to PT = 2 cm

A = bh / 2

A = (10)(2) / 2

A = 20 / 2

A = 10 cm²

Step Four: Find the length of Q to PT perpendicularly

Similar to step two, Q is the endpoint of one diagonal, and by definition, diagonals are perpendicular and congruent with each other. Therefore, the length of Q to PT perpendicularly is half of the diagonal.

Length of Diagonal = 4 cm

4 ÷ 2 = 2 cm

Step Five: Find the area of ΔPQT

b = PT = 10 cm

h = Q to PT = 2 cm

A = bh / 2

A = (10)(2) / 2

A = 20 / 2

A = 10 cm²

Step Six: Combine area of two triangles to find the total area

Area of ΔPST = 10 cm²

Area of ΔPQT = 10 cm²

10 + 10 = 20 cm²
