The Area Of A Planned Garden Can Be Modeled By The Equation A 4w2 64w Where W Is The Width Of The Garden In Feet Someone Please Help class=

Sagot :

Answer:

8 feet, 256 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The function of the area can be graphically rapresented with a parabola that opens downwards

in this specific case the vertex is the maximum point of the parabola.

(X) Vertex = -64/-8 = 8 feet

(Y) Vertex = -4(64) + 512 = -256 + 512 = 256 ft^2

Answer:

Maximum Width = 8 feet.

Maximum area = 256 ft^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A.

A = -4w^2 + 64w

Finding the derivative:

dA/dw = -8w + 64 = 0  for maxm/minm, so

-8w  = -64

w = 8

The second derivative is -8 so w = 8 gives a maximum.

Part B.

The maximum area = -4(8)^2 + 64*8

= -256 + 512

= 256 ft^2.
