A campground owner has 1300m of fencing. He wants to enclose a rectangular field bordering a​ river, with no fencing along the river.​ (See the​ sketch.) Let x represent the width of the field. ​(a) Write an expression for the length of the field as a function of x. ​(b) Find the area of the field ​(arealength​width) as a function of x. ​(c) Find the value of x leading to the maximum area. ​(d) Find the maximum area.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a). The length of the field is 1,300 - 2·x

(b) The area of the rectangular field is 1,300·x - 2·x²

(c) x leading to the maximum area is 325 meters

(d) The maximum area is 211,250 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The length of fencing the compound owner has = 1,300 m

The shape of the field he wants to enclose = Rectangular field

The width of the field he wants to enclose = x

The fence on the side along the river = No fencing along the river

(a). Let 'l' represent the length of the field, we, have;

2·x + l = 1.300

∴ l = 1,300 - 2·x

The length of the field, l = 1,300 - 2·x

(b) The area of a rectangular field, A = Length of the field, l × Width of the field, w

Therefore;

The area of the rectangular field, A = x × (1,300 - 2·x) = 1,300·x - 2·x²

The area of the rectangular field = 1,300·x - 2·x²

(c) The coefficient of x² is negative, therefore, the graph of the area has a maximum point

The value of 'x' leading to maximum area is given by differentiating the function representing the area, equating the result to 0, and fining the value of 'x' as follows;

d(A)/dx = d(1,300·x - 2·x²)/dx = 1,300 - 4·x

d(A)/dx = 0 at the maximum point

∴ 1,300 - 4·x = 0

4·x = 1,300

x = 1,300/4 = 325

x leading to the maximum area = 325 meters

(d) The maximum area, [tex]A_{max}[/tex] is given by A = 1,300·x - 2·x², when x = 325

∴ [tex]A_{max}[/tex] = 1,300 m × 325 m - 2 × (325 m)² = 211,250 m²

The maximum area, [tex]A_{max}[/tex] = 211,250 m²

Soledad buys 5 ounces of frozen yogurt for $2.25. What is the unit price of the frozen yogurt in dollars per ounce?

Answers

The unit price of the yogurt is given by the equation A = $ 0.45

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

Let the cost of 5 ounces of frozen yogurt be = $ 2.25

So , the cost of 1 ounce of frozen yogurt A = cost of 5 ounces of frozen yogurt / 5

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

The cost of 1 ounce of frozen yogurt A = $ 2.25 / 5

The cost of 1 ounce of frozen yogurt A = $ 0.45

Hence , the unit rate cost is $ 0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Ms. Lee wants to know what kinds of things her students do prepare for her tests. Ms. Lee placed the names of her students into a box. To determine who she would ask about their study habits she asked a student to draw names from the box.

a. What is the sample in this situation?

b. What is the population?

(NOT A MULTIPLE CHOICE)

Answers

Answers:

a) The sample is the set of students Ms. Lee selects from the box.b) The population is the set of all students in Ms. Lee's classroom.

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

Explanation:

The first sentence tells us what the population is: it's the set of all her students. She's not concerned with any other students in any other classroom. So her "universe", so to speak, is solely focused on this classroom only. Once the population is set up, a sample of it would be a subset of the population.

If set A is a subset of set B, then everything in A is also in B, but not vice versa. For example, the set of humans is a subset of the set of mammals because all humans are mammals. However, a dog is a mammal but not a human. This shows that A is a subset of B, but not the other way around. In this example, A = humans and B = mammals.

Going back to the classroom problem, we have A = sample and B = population. If Ms. Lee has 30 students, and she randomly selects 5 of them, then those 30 students make up set B and the 5 selected make up set A. Selecting the names randomly should generate an unbiased sample. This sample should represent the population overall. If the population is small enough, the teacher could do a census and not need a sample. Though there may be scenarios that it's still effective to draw a sample.

What is correlation coefficient and how to interpret it?

Correlation coefficient is a measure of how similar two datasets are acting.

The range of correlation coefficient is [-1, 1]

When the correlation coefficient comes out as -1, it means that both the datasets are negatively oppositely correlated. One data increases, other data starts decreases in the opposite direction.

When the correlation coefficient comes out below 0, values are negatively correlated.

If the correlation coefficient comes out as 0, that means both the data sets are uncorrelated with respect to how we compare them.

When the correlation coefficient comes out > 0, that means both datasets' values are positively correlated.

If correlation coefficient comes out as 1, then the values grow exact similarly, in the same direction.

Given;

y = -0.4x + 98.3

When you increase your homework score by 1 point, you lose 0.4 points on your test.

-0.4x + 98.3 = 74

→  -0.4x = -24.3  

→  x = 60.75 ≈ 61

Therefore, the correlation will be y=61.

Circle 1 has a center (−4, 5) and a radius of 6 cm. Circle 2 has (2, −3) and a radius of 9 cm. What transformations can be applied to Circle 1 to prove that the circles are similar? Enter your answers in the blanks. Enter the scale factor as a fraction in the simplest form.

The circles are similar because the transformation rule (___ , ___ ) can be applied to Circle 1 and then dilate it using a scale factor of ___/___

Answers

Answer:

The circles are similar because the transformation rule (+ 5 , - 6) can be applied to Circle 1 and then dilate it using a scale factor of ​3/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

All the circles are similar.

That is because you can transform one circle onto another by two similarity operations: translation and dilation (scale factor).

For these two circles you have to translate the center of circle 1 to the center of circle 2, which will make that the two circles are concentric (have the same center).

The two centers are (-6,2) and (-1,- 4). To move the center (-6, 2) to (-1,4) you have to shift it 5 units to the right and 6 units down:

- 6 + 5  = - 1

2 - 6 = - 4.

After this translation, you dilate the circle with smaller radius using a scale factor equal to the ratio of the bigger radius to the smaller radius: 8/6 = 4/3.

Enter the scale factor as a fraction in simplest form. 3/4

The answer is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

If we use the point slope intercept form we would get the slope of 2/5

which we can apply it to the -5 and we would get the answer.

h(0)= -1 is saying the x is the 0 while the y is the -1.

Same goes for h(5)=1.

so then you would do m=[1-(-1)]/(5-0)

which gives you the slope.

The you put the -5 which is the x value and write an equation for it:

y=2/5(-5)-1

Which gives you the answer of -3

In the real world, adults use their authority to control these divisions and maintain a balanced group dynamic. In Lord of the Flies, however, children must fend for themselves and elect their own leaderand Piggy, wise but scorned, is never seriously considered. Though Piggy is intelligent, rational, and innovative, he lacks the charisma and facility with language that both Ralph and Jack possess, traits that the book suggests play crucial roles in establishing their authority. Piggy may have the tactical smarts to be a good leader, but because he cannot convincingly act the role, he would not be able to marshal the boys if given the chance.Although his contributions often go unappreciated, Piggy comes up with some of the most important innovations on the island. He sees the conchs potential as a rallying device and firmly believes in its ability to keep operations running smoothly. He understands the importance of taking a census, which the other boys recognize only after the little boy with the mulberry birthmark goes missing and they cant determine how many other littluns were killed in the fire. Piggys glasses provide the spark for the signal fire, metaphorically demonstrating how intellect can spark great progress. The scholarly, sensible Piggy is a born administrator, one who understands how to categorize and effectively utilize information. He also shows surprising personal strength, both in his ability to tolerate the cruel taunts from the other boys, including his supposed friend Ralph, as well as in his willingness to voice the unpleasant truth about the likelihood of rescue.However, despite these admirable qualities, Piggy is resoundingly unsuccessful on those few occasions in which he does attempt to lead. He stubbornly holds onto outdated customs, such as the use of the conch, long after Ralph and Jack realize that the shell no longer holds sway over the group. Piggy insists on the rules even when the rules are clearly irrelevant, and this stickler attitude, along with his constant speechmaking and self-righteous complaining, drives people away. Ralph and Jack intuitively know how to rally followers, while Piggy seems to repel them relentlessly. Piggy is so unsuccessful, in fact, that he ultimately dies in the act of trying to lead: He is crushed while waving the conch, fruitlessly ordering others to listen to him.Piggys total lack of success in a leadership role suggests that there are significant differences between a leader and a thinker. Ralph has an aura of poise and capability that wins him trust. His authority is rooted in personality rather than innovationhe relies on Piggy for thatand he understands the importance of rhetoric in winning followers. For example, he speaks in the language of rescue, playing into the boys deepest hopes and fears to bolster his hold over them. Jack wields power effectively as well, and boys are drawn to his glamour and charisma. Jacks leadership is rooted in intimidation, which appeals to the boys once the island turns savage. The boys negative reaction to Piggys physical unattractiveness emphasizes the role external personas play in establishing command; the boys dont so much reject Piggy because he is ugly, but because he does not know how to play the role of a leader.Piggys failure as a leader points to an important theme of the novel: the failure of civilization in the face of savagery. Piggy represents rationalism and discipline, the very qualities that Jack himself identifies as making the English . . . the best at everything. Despite Jacks initial support of rules and regulations, however, The Lord of the Flies suggests that absent the structures of school, family, and government, which prop up civilization, human beings will always choose anarchy and hedonism over law and order. Piggy represents the wild boys strongest link to civilization: Once he is killed, the hope of regaining it is lost forever, and only chaos remains. please help i will give extra points What is the length of the diagonal, d, of the rectangular prism shown below?Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
