Grace [21]

Answer:

The dimensions of the smallest piece that can be used are: 10 by 20 and the area is 200 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

Area = 128

Let the dimension of the paper be x and y;

Such that:

Length = x

Width = y

So:

Area = x * y

Substitute 128 for Area

128 = x * y

Make x the subject

x = \frac{128}{y}

When 1 inch margin is at top and bottom

The length becomes:

Length = x + 1 + 1

Length = x + 2

When 2 inch margin is at both sides

The width becomes:

Width = y + 2 + 2

Width = y + 4

The New Area (A) is then calculated as:

A = (x + 2) * (y + 4)

Substitute \frac{128}{y} for x

A = (\frac{128}{y} + 2) * (y + 4)

Open Brackets

A = 128 + \frac{512}{y} + 2y + 8

Collect Like Terms

A = \frac{512}{y} + 2y + 8+128

A = \frac{512}{y} + 2y + 136

A= 512y^{-1} + 2y + 136

To calculate the smallest possible value of y, we have to apply calculus.

Different A with respect to y

A' = -512y^{-2} + 2

Set

A' = 0

This gives:

0 = -512y^{-2} + 2

Collect Like Terms

512y^{-2} = 2

Multiply through by y^2

y^2 * 512y^{-2} = 2 * y^2

512 = 2y^2

Divide through by 2

256=y^2

Take square roots of both sides

\sqrt{256=y^2

16=y

y = 16

Recall that:

x = \frac{128}{y}

x = \frac{128}{16}

x = 8

Recall that the new dimensions are:

Length = x + 2

Width = y + 4

So:

Length = 8 + 2

Length = 10

Width = 16 + 4

Width = 20

To double-check;

Differentiate A'

A' = -512y^{-2} + 2

A" = -2 * -512y^{-3}

A" = 1024y^{-3}

A" = \frac{1024}{y^3}

The above value is:

A" = \frac{1024}{y^3} > 0

This means that the calculated values are at minimum.

<em>Hence, the dimensions of the smallest piece that can be used are: 10 by 20 and the area is 200 square inches</em>

trapecia [35]

Answer:

F^{'}=(250\sqrt{3},250 })

Step-by-step explanation:

We have F´ =500 and \alpha=30º, so x and y components:

F´ = (F_{x} , F_{y}) this is

F_{x} = F^{'} *Cos\alpha

F_{y} = F^{'} *Sin\alpha  

F_{x} = F`*Cos\alpha =500*Cos30=500*\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} =250\sqrt{3}

F_{y}=F*Sin\alpha  =500*Sin30=500*\frac{1}{2}=250;

Finally

F' = (250\sqrt{3} , 250)

The tables represent two linear functions in a system.<br><br> What is the solution to this system?
Darya [45]

The solution to this system is (x, y) = (8, -22).

The y-values get closer together by 2 units for each 2-unit increase in x. The difference at x=2 is 6, so we expect the difference in y-values to be zero when we increase x by 6 (from 2 to 8).

You can extend each table after the same pattern.

In table 1, x-values increase by 2 and y-values decrease by 8.

In table 2, x-values increase by 2 and y-values decrease by 6.

The attachment shows the tables extended to x=10. We note that the y-values are the same (-22) for x=8 (as we predicted above). That means the solution is ...

... (x, y) = (8, -22)

Which absolute value function has a graph that is wider than the parent function, f(x) = |x|, and is translated to the right 2 u
Mariulka [41]
Case 1:  If we multiply f(x) = |x| by a fraction greater than zero and less than 1, the width of the resulting graph will increase.  If the vertex of the original function is moved 2 units to the right, then we'd replace |x| with |x-2|  Only the coefficient (3/4) satisfies the "wider graph" requirement here.

Next time you list answr possibilities, please type them in only one per line, or separate them with commons, semicolons or the like.
