Find the value of w and YZ if Y is between X and Z. XY = 4w YZ = 6W XZ = 12w - 8​

Mathematics

Answer:

w = 4

YZ = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, Y is a point lying between the points X and Z.

Therefore, relationship between the lengths of the segments will be,

length of segment XZ = length of XY + length of YZ

It's given in the question,

XZ = 12w - 8

YZ = 6w

XY = 4w

By substituting these values in the relation,

12w - 8 = 4w + 6w

12w - 8 = 10w

12w = 10w + 8

12w - 10w = 8

2w = 8

w = 4

Since, YZ = 6w

Therefore, YZ = 24

If the farmer has 234 feet of fencing, what are the dimensions of the region which enclose the maximal area?
marissa [1.9K]

Answer: 58 ft × 58 ft  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the region = x feet

And, the width of the region = y feet

Since, the perimeter of the region = 234 feet ( Given )

⇒ 2(x+y) = 234

⇒ x+y = 117

⇒ y = 117 - x

Again the area of the region, A = xy

⇒ A(x) = x(117-x)

⇒ A(x) = 117x - x^2

By differentiating the above equation with respect to x,

⇒ A'(x) = 117 - 2x  

For maxima or minima,

A'(x) = 0

\implies 117 - 2x = 0

\implies -2x = -117

\implies x = 58.5

Again differentiating equation A'(x) with respect to x,

We get, A''(x) = -2

Hence, For x = 58.5 A''(x) = negative

⇒ For x = 58.5 feet the area A(x) is maximum,

⇒ The length of the region having maximum area = x = 58.5 feet

And, the width of the region having maximum area = y = 117-x= 117 - 58.5=58.5 feet,

⇒ The dimension of the region having the maximum area = 58.5 ft × 58.5 ft
