A farmer needs to enclose three sides of a plot with a fence (the fourth side is a river). The farmer has 54 yards of fence and wants the plot to have an area of 360 sq-yards. What should the dimensions of the plot be? (For the purpose of this problem, the width will be the smaller dimension (needing two sides); the length with be the longer dimension (needing one side). Additionally, the length should be as long as possible.)

length = yards
width = yards

Enter your answers as numbers. If necessary, round to the nearest hundredths.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The length of the field = 24.5 yards

The width of the field = 12 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

If "w" is the width, then the length is 49 - 2w.

The area of the rectangle field = length × width

= w(49 - 2w)

Area =

This a quadratic equation, the vertex of x coordinate is w

w =

Here a = -2 and b = 49

w = .

So width of the field is 12.25 yards.

The length of the filed = 49 - 2(12.25) = 24.5

Area = 12.25 × 24.5 = 300.125 square yards.

The field has an area of 294.

Therefore, the length must be 24.5 yards and width must be 12 yards.

24.5 × 12 =294 square yards.

Therefore, the length of the field = 24.5 yards

the width of the field = 12 yards.

Two types of tickets are available for a charity ball event: $18 for a reserved seat and $9 for general admission. The number of reserved seats available is 85 less than the number of tickets available for general admission. If the sale of tickets for the day was $3,600, how many seats were allotted for general admission?

Answers

Answer:

# of reserved seats = R;  # of general admission seats = G

                                                    G - R = 85

                                         $18R + $9G =$3600

Multiply 1st equation by 18:  18G - 18R = 1530

Rearrange 2nd equation:   $9G + $18R =$3600

Combine the equations:               27 G  =   5130

                                                       G  =  190

Is City B significantly sunnier than City A? use a significance level of 0.05

Answers

The significance level shows that z approximately equals 1.41 for a p-value of 0.078642.

How to calculate the p-value?

Based on the complete question, the sample proportion for city A will be:

= 54/90 = 0.60

The sample proportion for city B will be:

= 63/90 = 0.70

Using the table given, it can be deduced that the test statistic value will be 1.41. Therefore, the p-value will be 0.078652 in the Excel function.

Since the p-value is greater than 0.05, then we fail to reject the null hypothesis that there is no difference in the commute time.

Find the equations of the circle which is tangent to both axes and their center lies on the line 2x+3y=10

Answers

Answer:

(x - 2)² + (y - 2)² = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The circle is tangent to both axes, so the radius = x = y

Center is on 2x + 3y = 0, so 2x + 3x = 1-

x = 2 = y

center: (2, 2)

radius = 2

At the beginning of the road, a tank truck was traveling full of water in water tank, but it began to leak.You can assume that the fuel consumption of the truck is directly proportional to the weight it carries, and that the water flow(in the leakage) and the speed of the truck are constant for the whole journey. After traveling for miles, the truck leaked half of the water from the water tank and consumed half of fuel tank.

If the water tank was empty the truck would have spent a sixth of the fuel tank, if it travelled the same distance and under the same conditions as above.
Disregarding the fuel tank weight, what fraction of the fuel tank would be spent if there was no leak?

Answers

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] of the water takes [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] of the fuel and empty tank takes [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] of the fuel, the

fraction that would will be spent if there was no leak is [tex]\underline{\dfrac{11}{18}}[/tex] of the fuel

How can the fraction of the fuel spent be found?

The given parameters are;

The volume of oil consumed = [tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{1}{2}}[/tex] of the fuel tank

Volume consumed if the water tank was empty = [tex]\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex] of the fuel tank

Let w represent the weight of the water that fills the tank.

Therefore;

[tex]The \ average \ weight \ carried \ by \ oil = \dfrac{w + \dfrac{w}{2} }{2} = \mathbf{\dfrac{3 \cdot w}{4}}[/tex]

The amount of fuel consumed by the water that leaked = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2} - \dfrac{1}{6} = \dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]

Let x represent the amount of oil used to carry only the water if there

was no leak, therefore;

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{\frac{3 \cdot w}{4} }{w} }= \dfrac{\frac{1}{3} }{x}[/tex]

Which gives;

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{3 \cdot w}{4} \times x}} = \dfrac{1}{3} \times w }[/tex]

[tex]x = \dfrac{4}{3 \times 3} = \dfrac{4}{9}[/tex]

The total amount of fuel that will be consumed without leakage is

therefore;

[tex]Total \ amount \ of \ fuel = \dfrac{4}{9} + \dfrac{1}{6} = \mathbf{ \dfrac{11}{18}}[/tex]

The amount of oil consumed if there was no leakage is therefore;

Find the equation of the axis of symmetry of the parabola. Each box in the grid represents 1 unit.


Enter the answer as an equation.

Answers

Answer:

The axis of symmetry of this parabola will be the line x=−b2a .

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph the parabola y=x2−7x+2 .

Compare the equation with y=ax2+bx+c to find the values of a , b , and c .

Here, a=1,b=−7 and c=2 .

Use the values of the coefficients to write the equation of axis of symmetry .

The graph of a quadratic equation in the form   y=ax2+bx+c has as its axis of symmetry the line x=−b2a . So, the equation of the axis of symmetry of the given parabola is x=−(−7)2(1) or x=72 .

Substitute x=72 in the equation to find the y -coordinate of the vertex.

y=(72)2−7(72)+2    =494−492+2    =49 − 98 + 84     =−414

Therefore, the coordinates of the vertex are (72,−414) .

[tex] \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: solution[/tex]

Step 1: Find the money for the 7% rate

=> [tex] 60000 \times \frac{7}{100} [/tex]

=> [tex] \frac{60000}{1} \times \frac{7}{100} [/tex]

cancel the two zeros of 60,000 and 100

=> 600 × 7

=> 4,200

Add 4,200 to 60,000

=> 64,200

per year = 64,200

Now, divide 64,200 by 12

since 12 months to make one year

now multiply it by 4 months she gets 5350 per month

Suppose that a household's monthly water bill (in dollars) is a linear function of the amount of water the household uses (in hundreds of cubic feet, HCF). When graphed, the function gives a line with a slope of 1.45. See the figure below.
If the monthly cost for 13 HCF is $46.33, what is the monthly cost for 17 HCF?

Answers

The monthly cost for 17 hundred of cubic feet is $52.13.

What is a linear equation?

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b

Where y,x are variables, m is the rate of change and b is the initial value of y.

Let y represent the bill paid for x HCF of water.

The slope is 1.45, hence m = 1.45.

The monthly cost for 13 HCF is $46.33, hence:

46.33 = 1.45(13) + b

b = 27.48

y = 1.45x + 27.48

For 17 HCF:

y = 1.45(17) + 27.48 = 52.13

The monthly cost for 17 hundred of cubic feet is $52.13.
