SCALCET8 4.7.011. Consider the following problem: A farmer with 950 ft of fencing wants to enclose a rectangular area and then divide it into four pens with fencing parallel to one side of the rectangle. What is the largest possible total area of the four pens

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

For any rectangle, the one with the largest area will be the one whose dimensions are as close to a square as possible.

However, the dividers change the process to find this maximum somewhat.

Letting x represent two sides of the rectangle and the 3 parallel dividers, we have 2x+3x = 5x.

Letting y represent the other two sides of the rectangle, we have 2y.

We know that 2y + 5x = 750.

Solving for y, we first subtract 5x from each side:

2y + 5x - 5x = 750 - 5x

2y = - 5x + 750

Next we divide both sides by 2:

2y/2 = - 5x/2 + 750/2

y = - 2.5x + 375

We know that the area of a rectangle is given by

A = lw, where l is the length and w is the width. In this rectangle, one dimension is x and the other is y, making the area

A = xy

Substituting the expression for y we just found above, we have

A = x (-2.5x+375)

A = - 2.5x² + 375x

This is a quadratic equation, with values a = - 2.5, b = 375 and c = 0.

To find the maximum, we will find the vertex. First we find the axis of symmetry, using the equation

x = - b/2a

x = - 375/2 (-2.5) = - 375/-5 = 75

Substituting this back in place of every x in our area equation, we have

A = - 2.5x² + 375x

A = - 2.5 (75) ² + 375 (75) = - 2.5 (5625) + 28125 = - 14062.5 + 28125 = 14062.5

Shelly believes the honor roll students at her school have an unfair advantage in being assigned to the math class they request. She asked 500 students at her school the following questions: "Are you on the honor roll?" and "Did you get the math class you requested?" The results are shown in the table below:

Honor roll Not on honor roll Total
Received math class requested 125 215 340
Did not get math class requested 80 80 160
Total 205 295 500

Help Shelly determine if all students at her school have an equal opportunity to get into the math class they requested. Show your work, and explain your process for determining the fairness of the class assignment process.

Answers

Answer: No, there isn't equal opportunity

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

Explanation:

Let's define the two events

A = person is on the honor rollB = person got the math class they requested

From the table, we see that

P(B) = 340/500 = 0.68

meaning that there's a 68% chance of picking someone who got the class they wanted (i.e. 68% of the people got the class they wanted)

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

Now let's assume that the person is on the honor roll. This means we only focus on the "honor roll" column. There are 125 people here that got the class they wanted out of 205 honor roll students total.

So,

P(B given A) = 125/205 = 0.609756

which rounds to 0.61

This says that if a person is on the honor roll, then they have roughly a 61% chance of getting the class they want.

The chances have gone down from 68% to 61% roughly.

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

It appears that being on the honor roll does affect your chances of getting into the class you want.

Therefore, all students do not have the same equal opportunity.

We would need to have P(B) and P(A given B) to be the same exact value for true equal opportunity to happen.

All students do not have equal opportunity.

From the table, we have the following parameters:

205 people are on honor roll call340 people got the math class requested500 people were surveyed

The above means that:

The probability that a person is on honor roll call is:

p1 = 205/500

p1 = 0.41

The probability that a person got the math class requested

p2 = 340/500

p2 = 0.68

Both probabilities are not equal.

Hence, it is true that all students do not have equal opportunity.

(b) If 124n= 232 five, find n.

Answers

Answer:[tex]n=\frac{58}{31}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]124n=232\\\frac{124n}{124}=\frac{232}{124}\\n=\frac{232}{124}=\frac{58}{31}[/tex]

The value of n is 18.75. To find the value of n, we need to solve the equation: 124n = 232 five

Let's first convert "232 five" into a numerical value:

"232 five" means 2325 (since five is in the units place).

Now, the equation becomes:

124n = 2325

To solve for n, divide both sides of the equation by 124:

n = 2325 / 124

Now, perform the division:

n = 18.75

So, the value of n is 18.75.

Answers

Answer:

  7,6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of sines can be used to find the length AB.

  AB/sin(C) = BC/sin(A)

A = 180° -48° -52° = 80°

  AB = BC·sin(C)/sin(A) = 12,8·sin(52°)/sin(80°)

The sine function can be used to find AD from AB.

  AD/AB = sin(48°)

  AD = AB·sin(48°) = 12,8·sin(48°)sin(52°)/sin(80°)

  AD ≈ 7,61 cm

Each side of a regular polygon is 3.2 cm in length. The perimeter of the polygon is 19.2 cm. How many sides does the polygon have? What is the name of the polygon?​

Answers

Answer:

The polygon consists of 6 sides and the given polygon is a regular hexagon.

Step-by-step explanation:

The definition of perimeter is the total measure of the side lengths of a polygon. If the polygon said is regular, it means the polygon has equal sides and equal angles.

So the perimeter of a regular polygon is given by the formula:

P = (length of one side) x (number of sides)

In this case, the perimeter of the polygon is 19.2 cm and one side is equal to 3.2 cm.

DIVIDE (use the formula but in division to maintain a proportonal relationship):

19.2 ÷ 3.2 = 6

You could alsk check if its correct using the formula:

19.2 = 3.2 x 6 (TRUE)

A 6 sided regular polygon is known as a HEXAGON.

We have a 100.0 m long polymer cable of uniform circular cross section and of diameter 0.4cm has a mass of 1885.0 gm.

We have to determine its mass density in kg/m3.

What is Mass density ?

The amount of mass per unit volume present in the body is called its mass density.

According to question, we have -

Length of polymer cable = 100.0 m

diameter of polymer cable = 0.4 cm = 0.004 m

Therefore, its radius = 0.002 m

The mass density of the wire will be -

[tex]\rho =\frac{m}{\pi r^{2} l}[/tex]

[tex]\rho[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1885}{3.14 \times0.002 \times 0.002 \times 100 }[/tex]

[tex]\rho = \frac{1885}{0.001256}[/tex] = 1500796.1 g/m3

1 Kg = 1000g

1g = 1/1000kg

1500796.1g = 1500.7 Kg = 15 x [tex]10^{-2}[/tex] Kg

Therefore, mass density = 15 x [tex]10^{-2}[/tex] Kg/m3

Hence, the mass density in kg/m3 will be -  15 x [tex]10^{-2}[/tex] Kg/m3.

An ice cream store determines the cost of its sundaes by using the formula C = 0.50s + 0.35n + 0.25t, where C is the total cost in dollars, s is the number of scoops of ice cream, n is the number of scoops of nuts, and t is the number of liquid toppings. A Nutty Sundae costs $3.55. It has 3 scoops of nuts and 2 different liquid toppings. How many scoops of ice cream are in this sundae?

Answers

Answer:

4 scoops of ice cream

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in the total cost, number of scoops of nuts, and number of liquid toppings into the formula. Then, solve for s:

C = 0.50s + 0.35n + 0.25t

3.55 = 0.50s + 0.35(3) + 0.25(2)

3.55 = 0.50s + 1.05 + 0.5

3.55 = 0.50s + 1.55

2 = 0.50s

4 = s

So, the sundae had 4 scoops of ice cream.
