Given:
2 parallelograms with an area of 9 1/3 yd²
height of each parallelogram is 1 1/3 yd
Area of parallelogram = base * height
We need to divide the combined area into two to get each parallelogram's base.
9 1/3 = ((9*3)+1)/3 = 28/3
28/3 ÷ 2 = 28/3 * 1/2 = 28/6 yd² or 4 4/6 yd² ⇒ 4 2/3 yd²
Area of each parallelogram is 4 2/3 yd²
4 2/3 yd² = base * 1 1/3 yd
14/3 yd² ÷ 4/3 yd = base
14/3 yd² x 3/4 yd = base
14*3 / 3*4 = base
42 / 12 = base
3 6/12 yd = base
or 3 1/2 yd = base
a) the base of each parallelogram is 3 1/2 yards
b) we can assume that the two parallelograms form a rectangle.
area of a rectangle is length times width.
length is 3 1/2 yds * 2 = 7 yds
width is 3 1/2 yds
Area of rectangle = 7 yds * 3 1/2 yds
Area = 7 yd * 7/2 yd
Area = 7*7 / 2 yd²
Area = 49 / 2 yd²
Area = 24 1/2 yd²
Answer:
a.) C(q) = -(1/4)*q^3 + 3q^2 - 12q + OH b.) $170
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Marginal cost is defined as the decrease or increase in total production cost if output is increased by one more unit. Mathematically:
Marginal cost (MC) = change in total cost/change in quantity
Therefore, to derive the equation for total production cost, we need to integrate the equation of marginal cost with respect to quantity. Thus:
Total cost (C) = Integral [3(q-4)^2] dq = -(1/4)*(q-4)^3 + k
where k is a constant.
The overhead (OH) = C(0) = -(1/4)*(0-4)^3 + k = -16 + k
C(q) = -(1/4)*(q^3 - 12q^2 + 48q - 64) + k = -(1/4)*q^3 + 3q^2 - 12q -16 + k
Thus:
C(q) = -(1/4)*q^3 + 3q^2 - 12q + OH
(b) C(14) = -(1/4)*14^3 + 3*14^2 - 12*14 + 436 = -686 + 588 - 168 + 436 = $170
The function for conversions from Fahrenheit to Celsius is:
Celsius = (Fahrenheit - 32) x 5/9
C(76.1) = (76.1 - 32) x 5/9
= (44.1) x 5/9
= 24.5
Therefore, 76.1 degrees Fahrenheit = 24.5 degrees Celsius.
What is the value of the discriminant?
For this case, the discriminant will be given by
b ^ 2 - 4 * a * c
Where
b = 7
a = 3
c = 2
substituting
b ^ 2 - 4 * a * c = (7) ^ 2 - 4 * (3) * (2) = 25
Therefore the value of the discriminant is 25.
How many x-intercepts does this function have?
It has two intercepts with the x axis and can be found by equaling the function to zero. That is to say,
3x2 + 7x + 2 = 0
The results will be the interceptions with x.
What are the number of zeros for this function?
The number of zeros for this function is
two real number solutions
Because it is a quadratic function.
A conservative vector field

has curl

. In this case,

so the vector field is not conservative.
