Answer

  1. (b) Area of inner rectangle
Solution:
In order to paint in the maximum area, Kyra needs to maximize the area of inner rectangle.
  1. (c) $(\text{x}-1)\Big(\frac{24}{\text{x}}-1.5\Big)$
Solution:
Let x be the length and y be the breadth of outer rectangle.
$\therefore$ Length of inner rectangle = $x - 1$
and breadth of inner rectangle = y - 1.5
$\therefore$ A(x) = (x - 1)(y - 1.5) [$\therefore$ xy = 24 (given)
$=\big(\text{x}-1\big)\bigg(\frac{24}{\text{x}}-1.5\bigg)$
  1. (b) $(1, 16)$
Solution:
Dimensions of rectangle (outer/inner) should be positive.
$\therefore\text{x}-1>0\text{ and }\frac{24}{\text{x}}-1.5>0$
$\therefore\text{x}>1\text{ and }{\text{x}}<16$
$\therefore$ Range of x is (1, 16)
  1. (c) 4 ft
Solution:
We have $\text{A}'\text{(x)}=(\text{x}-1)\bigg(\frac{24}{\text{x}}-1.5\bigg)$
$\Rightarrow\text{A}'(\text{x)}=(\text{x}-1)\Big(\frac{-24}{\text{x}^2}\Big)+\bigg(\frac{24}{\text{x}}-1.5\bigg)$
$=\frac{24}{\text{x}^2}-1.5\ \text{and}\ \text{A}''(\text{x})=\frac{-48}{\text{x}^3}$
For A(x) to be maximum or minimum, A'(x) = 0
$\Rightarrow-1.5+\frac{24}{\text{x}^2}=0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2=16$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\pm4$
$\therefore\text{x}=4$ [Since, length can't be negative]
Also, $\text{A}''(4)=\frac{-48}{4^3}<0$
Thus, at x = 4, area is maximum.
  1. (a) 3 ft, 4.5 ft.
Solution:
If area of inner rectangle is maximum, then Length of inner rectangle = x - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3 ft.
And breadth of inner rectangle $=\text{y}-1.5=\frac{24}{\text{x}}-1.5$
$=\frac{24}{4}-1.5=6-1.5=4.5\ \text{ft}$
