A farmer wants to fence in a rectangular plot of land adjacent to the north wall of his barn. No fencing is needed along the barn, and the fencing along the west side of the plot is shared with a neighbor who will split the cost of that portion of the fence. If the fencing costs $8 per linear foot to install and the farmer is not willing to spend more than $4000, find the dimensions for the plot that would enclose the most area.

Answers

Answer 1

The dimensions for the plot that would enclose the most area are a length and a width of 125 feet.

In this question we shall use the first and second derivative tests to determine the optimal dimensions of a rectangular plot of land. The perimeter ([tex]p[/tex]), in feet, and the area of the rectangular plot ([tex]A[/tex]), in square feet, of land are described below:

[tex]p = 2\cdot (w+l)[/tex] (1)

[tex]A = w\cdot l[/tex] (2)

Where:

[tex]w[/tex] - Width, in feet.[tex]l[/tex] - Length, in feet.

In addition, the cost of fencing of the rectangular plot ([tex]C[/tex]), in monetary units, is:

[tex]C = c\cdot p[/tex] (3)

Where [tex]c[/tex] is the fencing unit cost, in monetary units per foot.

Now we apply (2) and (3) in (1):

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

[tex]\frac{C}{c} = 2\cdot (\frac{A}{l}+l )[/tex]

[tex]\frac{C\cdot l}{c} = 2\cdot (A+l^{2})[/tex]

[tex]\frac{C\cdot l}{c}-2\cdot l^{2} = 2\cdot A[/tex]

[tex]\frac{C\cdot l}{2\cdot c} - l^{2} = A[/tex] (4)

We notice that fencing costs are directly proportional to the area to be fenced. Let suppose that cost is the maximum allowable and we proceed to perform the first and second derivative tests:

FDT

[tex]\frac{C}{2\cdot c}-2\cdot l = 0[/tex]

[tex]l = \frac{C}{4\cdot c}[/tex]

SDT

[tex]A'' = -2[/tex]

Which means that length leads to a maximum area.

If we know that [tex]c = 8[/tex] and [tex]C = 4000[/tex], then the dimensions of the rectangular plot of land are, respectively:

[tex]l = \frac{4000}{4\cdot (8)}[/tex]

[tex]l = 125\,ft[/tex]

[tex]A = \frac{(4000)\cdot (125)}{2\cdot (8)} -125^{2}[/tex]

[tex]A = 15625\,ft^{2}[/tex]

[tex]w = \frac{15625\,ft^{2}}{125\,ft}[/tex]

[tex]w = 125\,ft[/tex]

The dimensions for the plot that would enclose the most area are a length and a width of 125 feet.

Using relations in a right triangle, it is found that the sine of 23 degrees is given by:

D. 5/13.

What are the relations in a right triangle?

The relations in a right triangle are given as follows:

The sine of an angle is given by the length of the opposite side to the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse.The cosine of an angle is given by the length of the adjacent side to the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse.The tangent of an angle is given by the length of the opposite side to the angle divided by the length of the adjacent side to the angle.

Looking at the graph, the side opposite to the angle of 23º is of 5, while the hypotenuse is of 13, hence the sine is given by:

sin(23º) = 5/13.

Which means that option D is correct.

A scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solution A and Solution B. Each contains salt. She knows that Solution A is 45% salt and Solution B is
95% salt. She wants to obtain 60 ounces of a mixture that is 85% salt. How many ounces of each solution should she use?

Answers

we know A is 45% salt, so the amount of salt in A is (45/100)*A or 0.45A.

likewise we know that B is 95% salt, so the salt amount in it is (95/100)*B or 0.95B.

The number of baskets with 12 piece of  fruit is 15.

The number of baskets with 15 pieces of fruit is 45.

Percentage is the fraction out of a number expressed as a number out of hundred. The sign used to represent percentages is %.  

In order to determine the number of baskets that have 12 pieces of fruits and 15  pieces of fruits, multiply the given percentages by the total number of fruit baskets.

Number of baskets with 12 piece of  fruit: 25% x 60 = 0.25 x 60 = 15

Number of baskets with 15 pieces of fruit: 75% x 60 = 0.75 x 60 = 45

What is unitary method?

"It is a method of finding the value of a single unit and based on that value, we can find the required value."

For given example,

Mike burns 392 calories when he walks 4 miles.

This means, 4 miles = 392 calories

By using unitary method we find the number of calories he burns when he walks 1 mile.

4 miles = 392 calories

So, 1 mile = 392/4 calories

1 mile = 98 calories

Therefore, Mike burns 98 calories when he walks 1 mile.

What is Synthetic Division?

Synthetic division is a method used to perform the division operation on polynomials when the divisor is a linear factor. One of the advantages of using this method over the traditional long method is that the synthetic division allows one to calculate without writing variables while performing the polynomial division, which also makes it an easier method in comparison to the long division.

The factor theorem states that if f(x) is a polynomial of degree n greater than or equal to 1, and 'a' is any real number, then (x - a) is a factor of f(x) if f(a) = 0. In other words, we can say that (x - a) is a factor of f(x) if f(a) = 0.

Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
