A rancher wants to fence in an area of 3,000,000 square feet in a rectangular field and then divide it in half with a fence down the middle parallel to one side. What is the shortest length of fence that the rancher can use?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

shortest length of fence is 8485.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

area =  3,000,000 square feet

to find out

shortest length of fence

let length L and width is W

so area is L × W

W = 3 × [tex]10^{6}[/tex] /L    ............1

2W = 6 × [tex]10^{6}[/tex] /L

rectangular field and then divide it in half

so fencing will be 3 × L + 2 × W

i.e.  3 L + 2W

fencing =  3 L  + 6 × [tex]10^{6}[/tex] /L

fencing minimum = 3 L  -  6 × [tex]10^{6}[/tex] /L²

fencing minimum length will be zero

3 L  -  6 × [tex]10^{6}[/tex] /L² = 0

3 L² = 6 × [tex]10^{6}[/tex]

L² =  2 × [tex]10^{6}[/tex]

L  =  1414.2

so from equation 1

W = 3 × [tex]10^{6}[/tex] /L

W = 3 × [tex]10^{6}[/tex] /1414.2

W = 2121.3

so fencing will be  3 L +2 W

so fencing =   3 × 1414.2  +2 × 2121.3

fencing =  4242.6 +4242.6

fencing =  8485.2

shortest length of fence is 8485.2 ft

Answer 2
Final answer:

The shortest length of fence the rancher can use is approximately 6104 feet. This is derived by setting up the area and perimeter equations, differentiating to find the minimum perimeter, and substituting the values back into the equation.

Explanation:

This problem is a basic optimization problem in mathematics. Given that the area of the field to be fenced is 3,000,000 square feet, we can use the formula for the area of a rectangle, which is length multiplied by width. Since the rancher wants to divide the field in two with a fence running parallel to one side, the total amount of fencing will be two lengths and three widths.

Let's denote the length of the rectangle as 'l' and the width as 'w'. The area is thus l*w = 3,000,000. The perimeter is defined as 2*l + 3*w. Given that the area is fixed, w can be expressed in terms of l as 3,000,000/l.

Therefore, the perimeter becomes 2*l + 3*(3,000,000/l). The minimum fence length or perimeter occurs when the derivative of this equation is zero. By differentiating and setting the equation to zero, we get l=sqrt(1,500,000), approximately 1224.74 feet. Substituting this value into the equation for w gives us w also as 1224.74 feet.

The shortest length of fence that the rancher can use is thus 2*l + 3*w = 2*1224.74 + 3*1224.74 = 6103.7 feet.

A rectangle is 5 times as long as it is wide. The perimeter is 70 cm. Find the dimensions of the rectangle. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary. a. 14 cm by 70 cm c. 11.7 cm by 29.2 cm b. 5.8 cm by 64.2 cm d. 5.8 cm by 29.2 cm

Answers

Let the width = X, then the length would be 5x ( 5 times as long as the width).

The perimeter is adding the 4 sides.

x + x + 5x + 5x = 70

Combine the like terms:

12x = 70

Divide both sides by 12:

x = 70/12

x = 5.83

The width = 5.83 cm.

The length = 5 x 5.83 = 29.15

Now round each length to the nearest tenth:

5.8 and 29.2 cm.

Kendra is putting up a new fence around a rectangle or playground that measure 25 feet by 37 feet. If fencing costs 75.00 per foot how much will she have left over if she begins with 10,000?

Answers

Answer: She will have $700 left over.

Step-by-step explanation: Since we know that a rectangle has two sides with the measurement, we can add the sides. 37+37+25+25=124. The fencing in 124 feet in total. Multiply the 124 feet by the price per foot. 124 x 75 =9,300. Subtract the price from your total amount of money. 10,000 - 9,300 = $700. She will have $700 left over.

Approximate the solution to the equation using three iterations of successive approximation. Use the graph below as a starting point.

Answers

Answer:

  B.  x ≈ 13/8

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that one iteration consists of determining the midpoint of the interval known to contain the root.

The graph shows the functions intersect between x=1 and x=2, hence our first guess is x = 3/2.

Evaluation of the difference between the left side expression and the right side expression for x = 3/2 shows that difference to be negative, so we can narrow the interval to (3/2, 2). Our 2nd guess is the midpoint of this interval, so is x = 7/4.

Evaluation of the difference between the left side expression and the right side expression for x = 3/4 shows that difference to be positive, so we can narrow the interval to (3/2, 7/4). Our 3rd guess is the midpoint of this interval, so is x = 13/8.

_____

The sign of the difference at this value of x is still negative, so the next guess would be 27/16. It is a little hard to tell what the question means by "3 iterations." Evaluating the function for x=13/8 will be the third evaluation, so the determination that x=27/16 will be the next guess might be considered to be the result of the 3rd iteration.

A compact minivan costs $16,000 with a residual value of $1,000. It has an estimated useful life of five years. If the minivan was bought on July 3, what would be the book value at the end of Year 1 using straight-line rate? A. $14,500 B. $16,000 C. $1,500 D. $12,500

Answers

Answer:

  A.  $14,500

Step-by-step explanation:

The van depreciates ($16000 -1000 = $15000 in 5 years, so $3000 per year. It will be assumed to depreciate half that amount in half a year, so will be worth $1500 less than $16000 at the end of the first calendar year. The book value will be $14,500.

Final answer:

The book value of the minivan at the end of Year 1 is $14,500 after accounting for 6 months of straight-line depreciation of $1,500 from the original cost of $16,000.

Therefore, the correct answer is A. $14,500.

Explanation:

The student's question is related to calculating the book value of a minivan at the end of year 1 using the straight-line depreciation method. To find the book value, we need to first calculate the annual depreciation expense and then subtract it from the original cost of the minivan.

First, we calculate the annual depreciation expense:

Purchase price of minivan: $16,000

Residual value: $1,000

Useful life: 5 years

So, the annual depreciation expense is
(

$16,000

-

$1,000

) /

5 years

= $3,000 per year.

Since the minivan was bought on July 3, we need to account for a partial year of depreciation for year 1. Assuming the end of the year is December 31, that's 6 months (July through December) of depreciation in the first year. Therefore, it would be
$3,000 / 2 = $1,500 for 6 months.

To find the book value at the end of Year 1, we subtract the depreciation for the first 6 months from the purchase price:
$16,000 - $1,500 = $14,500.

Sabra went for a long hike and burned 845 calories in 3 1/4 hours.Nelson decided to go for a bike ride. He burned 1,435 calories in 4 7/8 hours.Who burned the most calories per hour?

Answers

Answer:

Nelson burned the most calories per hour

Explanation:

To solve this question, we will get the amount calories burned by each in one hour and then compare the two values

To do this, we will divide the total amount of calories burned by the total time

1- For Sabra:

We are given that she burnt 845 calories in [tex]3\frac{1}{25}[/tex] (which is equivalent to 3.25) hours

Therefore:

Calories burnt in an hour = [tex]\frac{845}{3.25}=260[/tex] calories/hour

2- For Nelson:

We are given that he burnt 1435 calories in [tex]4\frac{7}{8}[/tex] (which is equivalent to 4.875) hours

Therefore:

Calories burnt in an hour = [tex]\frac{1435}{4.875}=294.36[/tex] calories/hour

3- Comparing the two values:

From the above calculations, we can deduce that Nelson burned the most calories per hour

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

Nelson burned more cal/hr than Sabra at a rate of 294.36 cal/hr.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many calories per hour each person burned, divide the amount of calories they burned by the amount of hours they spent exercising.

Sabra: 845 cal / 3.25 hr = 260 cal/hr

Nelson: 1435 cal / 4.875 hr = 294.36 cal/hr

260 < 294.36, so Nelson burned more calories/hour than Sabra.

Step-by-step explanation:

C is your answer. Since this is a parallelogram, is means that there are two sets of sides with the same length. Because the measurement of angle K is 82 the angle directly opposite would have the same measurement. That's why angle M is also 82. When you add all the angles of a quadrilateral it adds up to 360 degrees. multiply 82 by 2 to get 164 and subtract that from 360 to get 196. you then have to divide that by 2 and you will get 98 which is the measurement for both angles L and N

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

m<L = 98°, m<M = 82° and m<N = 98°

Step-by-step explanation:

  The first transformation is a rotation 90° CCW.

The vertex order of A''B''C'' is CCW, indicating a reflection. The direction of the altitude from A''C'' to B'' is still to the left, so the reflection must be over a horizontal line. We find the x-axis bisects the segments A'A'', B'B'', and C'C'', confirming that it is the line of reflection.

A magazine provided results from a poll of 2000 adults who were asked to identify their favorite pie. Among the 2000 ​respondents, 13​% chose chocolate​ pie, and the margin of error was given as + or -4 percentage points. Given specific sample​ data, which confidence interval is​ wider: the 95​% confidence interval or the 80​% confidence​ interval? Why is it​ wider?

Answers

Answer:

95%

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given sample data, the width of the confidence interval would vary directly with the confidence level i.e. more the confidence level,  wider will be the confidence interval.

This is because the critical value associated with the confidence level(e.g z value) becomes larger as the confidence level is increased which results in an increased interval.

The confidence interval for a population proportion is given by the formula:

[tex]p \pm z\sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} }[/tex]

So, for a fixed value of p,q and n, the larger the value of z the wider will be the confidence interval.

Hence 95% confidence interval will be wider than 80% confidence interval.

Final answer:

The 95% confidence interval is wider than the 80% confidence interval because it includes a larger area under the curve of a normal distribution, offering a higher level of confidence the true population parameter falls within this range.

Explanation:

In statistical analysis, especially for polls like the one mentioned about favorite pies, the confidence interval plays a significant role in interpreting the reliability of the results. The 95% confidence interval is wider than the 80% confidence interval. This is because a higher confidence level, in this case 95%, means we are more sure that the actual population parameter lies within the interval, but in order to gain this certainty, the interval necessarily needs to be wider.

This can also be understood in the context of a normal distribution. For a 95% confidence interval, we are including a larger area under the curve of the distribution, thus the interval has to be wider than the one for the 80% confidence interval, which covers a smaller area.

It's important to note, however, that a wider confidence interval doesn't necessarily imply better predictability. It simply means there's a higher level of confidence that the true population parameter falls within the specified range.

Answers

Answer:

a

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 20x + 100 = 36 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

x² + 20x + 64 = 0 ← in standard form

Consider the factors of the constant term ( + 64) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term ( + 20)

The factors are + 16 and + 4, since

16 × 4 = + 64 and 16 + 4 = + 20, hence

(x + 16)(x + 4) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 16 = 0 ⇒ x = - 16

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

A bag Contains rubber bands with lengths that are normally distributed with a mean of 6 cm of length, and a standard deviation of 1.5 cm. What is the probability that a randomly selected nail is between 4.5 and 7.5 cm long?

Answers

Answer:

0.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mean = μ = 6 cm

SD = σ = 1.5 cm

We have to find the z-scores for 4.5 and 7.5

z-score for 4.5 = z_1 = (x-μ)/σ = (4.5-6)/1.5 = -1.5/1.5 = -1

z-score for 4.5 = z_2 = (x-μ)/σ = (7.5-6)/1.5 = 1.5/1.5 = 1

We have to find area to the left of z-scores

Using the rule of thumb for SD from mean, 68% of data lies between one standard deviation from mean. So the probability of choosing a band with length between 4.5 and 7.5 cm is 0.68 ..

The histogram below shows the average number of days per year in 117 Oklahoma cities where the high temperature was greater than 90 degrees

Answers

Answer:

Option A is the correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a histogram and we are asked to choose the correct statement about our given histogram.

Upon looking at our given histogram, we can see that our given data set is skewed to right. This means that means that the mean of the given data will be greater than median as our given data set has a long tail towards right or our data set is positively skewed.

Therefore, option A is the correct choice.

Find S for the given geometric series. Round answers to the nearest hundredth, if necessary. a1 = –12, a5 = –7,500, r = 5 Question 4 options: –9,372 –6,252 –1,872 –18,780

Answers

Answer:

S = -9,372 ⇒ 1st answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the geometric series

- There is a constant ratio between each two consecutive numbers

- Ex:

# 5  ,  10  ,  20  ,  40  ,  80  ,  ………………………. (×2)

# 5000  ,  1000  ,  200  ,  40  ,  …………………………(÷5)

* General term (nth term) of a Geometric series:

 U1 = a  ,  U2  = ar  ,  U3  = ar2  ,  U4 = ar3  ,  U5 = ar4

 Un = ar^(n-1), where a is the first term, r is the constant ratio between

 each two consecutive terms

- The sum of first n terms of a geometric series is calculate from

  [tex]S_{n}=\frac{a(1-r^{n})}{1-r}[/tex]

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The series is geometric

∵ a1 = -12

∴ a = -12

∵ a5 = -7500

∵ a5 = ar^4

∴ -7500 = -12(r^4) ⇒ divide both sides by -12

∴ 625 = r^4 take root four to both sides

∴ r = ± 5

∵ r = 5 ⇒ given

∵ [tex]Sn=\frac{a(1-r^{n})}{1-r}[/tex]

∵ n = 5

∴ [tex]S_{5}=\frac{-12[1-(5)^{5}]}{1-5}=\frac{-12[1-3125]}{-4}=3[-3124]=-9372[/tex]

* S = -9,372
