A rectangle has an area of 3/2 square yards. If the width of the rectangle is 1/2 yard, which statement is true?

Without using any calculus:

If x + y² = 5, then y² = 5 - x, so that

b = x y² = x (5 - x) = 5 x - x²

Complete the square to get

b = 25/4 - (x - 5/2)²

Then b gets a maximum value of 25/4 when x = 5/2.

Simple calculus method:

With b = 5 x - x², differentiate b with respect to x and set the derivative equal to 0 to solve for critical points:

db/dx = 5 - 2 x = 0   ==>   x = 5/2

Take the second derivative to determine whether b is concave or convex:

d²b/dx² = -2

The second derivative is negative, which means b is concave with respect to x, and this indicates x = 5/2 is the site of a local maximum, which is b (5/2) = 25/4.

More complicated calculus method:

Lagrange multipliers. The Lagrangian is

L (x, y, λ) = x y² - λ (x + y² - 5)

where we assume λ ≠ 0.

Take its derivatives:

dL/dx = y² - λ

dL/dy = 2 x y - 2 λ y

dL/dλ = x + y² - 5

Set each derivative equal to 0 to find the critical points. The first equation tells us y² = λ, and the second equation tells us x = λ, so

x + y² - 5 = 2 λ - 5 = 0

Solving this gives λ = x = y² = 5/2, so that b has an extreme value of

b = (5/2) (5/2) = 25/4

Deciding whether this is a maximum or minimum comes down to computing the Hessian determinant at the critical value. The Hessian is

[tex]H(x,y)=\begin{bmatrix}\dfrac{\partial^2b}{\partial x^2}&\dfrac{\partial^2b}{\partial x\partial y}\\\\\dfrac{\partial^2b}{\partial y\partial x}&\dfrac{\partial^2b}{\partial y^2}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}0&2y\\2y&2x\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

with determinant |H (x, y)| = -4 y². At the critical point, the determinant is -10 < 0, which indicates a maximum value of 25/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to isolate the variable.

1. Subtract 4.5s from both sides

2. We now have the equation -4s+1=7

3. Subtract 1 from both sides

4. -4s=6

5. Divide both sides by -4

6. The answer would be s=-1.5

Answer:

∡BEN=122

x=17

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you know that when two sides are congruent like this then the to angles are congruent then you know that angle BNE equals 29.

Once you know that since we know that 180 is the sum of all three angles set an equation like this:

180=29+29+(11x-65)

Take off parentheses since you can't simplify in them.

180=29+29+11x-65

Combine like terms.

180=11x-7

Solve for x.

187=11x

x=17

Plug that in to (11x-65) to find angle BEN

angle BEN = 11(17)-65

angle BEN=122

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

a. 61.92 in²

b. 21.396 ≈ 21.4%

c. $4.71

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Amount of waste = area of rectangular piece of stock - area of two identical circles cut out

Area of rectangular piece of stock = 24 in × 12 in = 288 in²

Area of the two circles = 2(πr²)

Use 3.14 as π

radius = ½*12 = 6

Area of two circles = 2(3.14*6²) = 226.08 in²

Amount of waste = 288 - 226.08 = 61.92 in²

b. % of the original stock wasted = amount of waste ÷ original stock × 100

= 61.92/288 × 100 = 6,162/288 = 21.396 ≈ 21.4%

c. 288 in² of the piece of stock costs $12.00,

Each cut-out circle of 113.04 in² (226.08/2) will cost = (12*113.04)/288

= 1,356.48/288 = $4.71.

Answer:

Constant of proportionality [tex] = \frac{1}{400} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The constant of proportionality can be calculated as the ratio of y to x. In this case, y = amount of paint, while x = the area of the wall

The area of the wall determines the amount of paint needed to cover the wall.

Constant of proportionality, k = y/x.

Any given pair cam be used as y and x to find k.

Thus, using (100, ¼),

[tex] k = \frac{\frac{1}{4}}{100} = \frac{1}{4}*\frac{1}{100} [/tex]

Constant of proportionality [tex] = \frac{1}{400} [/tex]

This means that as area of the wall increases, amount of paint increases and the ratio between them would always be [tex] \frac{1}{400} [/tex].

Answer:

13,000 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

X -------10960----------C---------------D---------------Y

The entire race (from X to Y) is 7 miles.  There are 5,280 ft. in one mile, so 7 miles is 36960 ft.

If we subtract 10,960 from 36,960, then we get the distance from C to Y.

36960-10960 = 26000

They tell you D is at the midpoint between C and Y

So if we divide 26,000 by 2, then we know the distance from C to D and from D to Y.

26000/2 = 13000

The checkpoints are C and D, so the distance between them is 13,000 ft.

Answer:

44 bro

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of representatives staying at least two nights rented a car is 44%.

Percentage is defined as the parts of a number per fraction of 100. We have to divide a number with it's whole and then multiply with 100 to calculate the percentage of any number.

So the percentage actually means a part per 100.

Percentage is usually denoted by the symbol '%'.

Given is a two way table.

From the table, the number of representatives staying at least 2 nights rented a car is 11.

Total number of representatives staying at least two nights = 14 + 11 = 25

Percentage = (11 / 25) × 100

                    = 0.44 × 100

                    = 44%

Hence the percentage for the required number is 44%.
