A farmer decides to make three identical pens with 88 feet of fence. The pens will be next to each other sharing a fence and will be up against a barn. The barn side needs no fence. What dimensions for the total enclosure (rectangle including all pens) will make the area as large as possible?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The long fence, AC = 44 feet

4 shorter segments at 11feet each = 44 feet

Area = 484 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The three pens will share one fence section parallel to the barn, we'll call it AB.  Each pen will need two side fence segments, from the front fence to the barn.  We'll call those portions AC.  We need four of them:  two for the outer sides and two more to divide up the space equally among the three pens.  The total area would be AB*AC.

We know that AC + 4AB = 88 feet.

or AC = (88feet - 4AB)

Area = AB(88feet - 4AB)

Area = 88AB - 4AB^2

To maximize the area, we can take the first derivative and set it equal to zero:

Area' = 88 - 8AB

0 = 88 - 8AB

AB = 11 feet

AC = (88 - 4AB)

AC = (88 - 44)

AC = 44 feet

The fours segments of fence:  

AC + 4AB = 88 feet

(44) + 4(11 feet) = 88feet

Area = 44' x 11 ft' = 484 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Chevy Malibu hybrid = 6.8

Ford mustang = 9.6

Nissan Pathfinder = 10.8

Toyota Corolla = 6.3

1. Chevy Malibu hybrid to Toyota Corolla = 6.8 to 6.3

= 6.8 : 6.3

= 6.8 / 6.3

2. Nissan Pathfinder to Ford mustang = 10.8 to 9.6

= 10.8 : 9.6

= 10.8 / 9.6

= 2.7 / 2.4

3. Toyota Corolla to Nissan Pathfinder = 6.3 to 10.8

= 6.3 : 10.8

= 6.3 / 10.8

4. Ford mustang to Chevy Malibu hybrid = 9.6 to 6.8

= 9.6 : 6.8

= 9.6 / 6.8

= 2.4 / 1.7

c**2 = 7**2 + 7**2

c**2 = 49 + 49 = 98

c       = +- (98)**1/2

Danny Metzger's parents invested $1600 when he was born. This money is to be used for Danny's college education and is to be withdrawn in four equal annual payments beginning when Danny is age 19. Find the amount that will be available each year, if money is worth 7%, compounded annually. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\begin{array}{ccl}Year&&End \ of \ year \ balance\\1&&\$4,483.18\\2&& \$3,088.68\\3&&\$1,596.57\\4&&0\end{array}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial amount invested, P = $1,600

Danny's age at which the amount, A, is to be used for his college, t = 19 years

The number of equal annual payments, m, to be withdrawn from the amount = 4

The compound interest on the account, r = 7% = 0.07

Let, A, represent the amount at the year the annual withdrawals starts to be made, we have;

[tex]A = P \times \left(1+\dfrac{r}{n} \right)^{n \times t}[/tex]

n = The number of times the interest is applied annually = 1

Therefore;

[tex]A = 1,600 \times \left(1+\dfrac{0.07}{1} \right)^{1 \times 19} \approx 5,786.444[/tex]

The amount, m, is withdrawn at start of Danny's first year in college to give the amount in the account = A - m

The amount in the account at the end of the first year with compound interest, r = (A - m)×(1 + r)¹ = (A - m)×(1 + r)

At the stat of the second year, the second withdrawal is made to give the starting amount = (A - m)×(1 + r) - m

The amount in the account at the end of the second year = ((A - m)×(1 + r) - m)×(1 + r)

At the start of the third year, the amount in the account =  ((A - m)×(1 + r) - m)×(1 + r) - m

At the end of the third year, we have the amount in the account  = (((A - m)×(1 + r) - m)×(1 + r) - m) × (1 + r)

At the start of the forth year, the last yearly installment is withdrawn from the account and we have 0 balance in the account.

Therefore, on the fourth year, we have the amount in the account = (((A - m)×(1 + r) - m)×(1 + r) - m) × (1 + r) - m = 0

(A - m)×(1 + r)³ - m×(1 + r)² - m × (1 + r) - m = 0

A×(1 + r)³ - m×(1 + r)³ - m×(1 + r)² - m × (1 + r) - m = 0

A×(1 + r)³ = m×(1 + r)³ + m×(1 + r)² + m×(1 + r) + m = m × ((1 + r)³ + (1 + r)² + (1 + r) + 1)

A×(1 + r)³ = m × ((1 + r)³ + (1 + r)² + (1 + r) + 1)

m = A×(1 + r)³/((1 + r)³ + (1 + r)² + (1 + r) + 1)

∴ m = 5,786.444×(1 + 0.07)³/((1 + 0.07)³ + (1 + 0.07)² + (1 + 0.07) + 1) ≈ 1,596.56

The amount withdrawn annually, m ≈ $1,596.56

The amount in the account at the end of the each year is given as follows;

First year = (A - m)×(1 + r) = (5,786.444 - 1,596.56)×(1 + 0.07) ≈ 4,483.17588

Second year = ((A - m)×(1 + r) - m)×(1 + r) = ((5,786.444 - 1,596.56)×(1 + 0.07) - 1,596.56)×(1 + 0.07) = 3,088.68

Third year = (((A - m)×(1 + r) - m)×(1 + r) - m) × (1 + r) = (((5,786.444 - 1,596.56)×(1 + 0.07) - 1,596.56)×(1 + 0.07) - 1,596.56) × (1 + 0.07) = 1,596.57

At the end of the first year, we have $4,483.17588

At the end of the second year, we have $3,088.68

At the end of the third year, we have $1,596.57

At the end of the fourth year, we have 0

Answer: C- Fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is not enough evidence to oppose the company's claim.

Note: I'm not sure this is correct o_O

I used a graphing calculator and calculated the t-interval of the jellybean sample using a 99% confidence level:

tInterval 9.68,1.23,125,0.99

It resulted in 9.68 ± 0.287805.

Therefore, we're 99% confident that the weight number of jellybeans would lie between 9.3922 oz and 9.9678 oz.

A weight of 9.45 oz lies within this range, therefore, it is possible that the candy company's claim is true.

Fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is not enough evidence to oppose the company's claim.

What is Statistics?

Answers

Correct question is;

Ten people are sitting in a row, and each is thinking of a negative integer no smaller than −15. Each person subtracts, from his own number, the number of the person sitting to his right (the rightmost person does nothing). Because he has nothing else to do, the rightmost person observes that all the differences were positive. Let x be the greatest integer owned by one of the 10 people at the beginning. What is the minimum possible value of x?

Answer:

Minimum possible value of x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 10 people and the rightmost person observes that all the differences from the subtraction or positive.

What this implies is that the person on the far left side of the row will have the largest number which from the quewis denoted as x.

Thus, we can say that the person sitting to the far right end on the row will have the smallest integer.

Since we want to minimize x, and for the fact that we are told that each is thinking of a negative integer no smaller than −15, then we will have to make the rightmost person have an integer of -15.

Since there are 9 people remaining on the row, thus, we add 9 to -15 to get the integer of the person for the leftmost person which will be the minimum he will have.

Thus;

-15 + 9 = -6
