George wants to use square pavers that are 6 inches on each side to completely surround his flower garden. The garden is 12 feet long and 3 feet wide. How many pavers should George buy ? show work

Solutions

Expert Solution

Area of the garden = 144 * 36 = 5184

Area of each square paver = 62 = 36

Number of pavers required = 5184/36 = 144

Suppose you're given a square sheet of tinfoil with side length 9 inches. Let us make a box by removing identical squares of length x from each corner of the sheet, and folding up the resulting flaps. Find the dimensions of the box with the largest volume by optimizing over x. Enter an exact value. Height of the Box=x= Length=Width=

A farmer owned a square field measuring exactly 2261 yards on each side. 1898 yards from one corner and 1009 yards from an adjacent corner stood a beech tree. A neighbor offered to purchase a triangular portion of the field stipulating that a fence should be erected in a straight line from one side of the field to an adjacent side so that the beech tree was part of the fence. The farmer accepted the offer but made sure that...
