Fencing a Garden A determined gardener has 120 ft of deer resistant fence. She wants to enclose a rectangular vegetable garden in her backyard, and she wants the area that is enclosed to be at least 800 ft2 . What range of values is possible for the length of her garden?
It is sometimes impractical to make engineering drawings full size. If the part to be drawn is very large or small a scale drawing is generally made. The scale, which is shown on drawing, compares the lengths of the lines on the drawing to the dimensions on the part. A scale on a drawing that states 14=1means the drawing is one-quarter the size of the part. It is expressed as a ratio of 1:4 or 14 . A scale drawing that states 2=1means that drawing is double the size of the part. It is expressed as a ratio of 2:1 or 21 . The actual dimensions of a steel support are given in Figure 20-11. All dimensions are in inches. Using the proportion given, compute the lengths for each unknown in the table. Round the answers to 3 decimal places where necessary.

Aerobic Power Aerobic power can be thought of as the maximum oxygen consumption attainable per kilogram of body mass. There are a number of ways in which physical educators estimate this. One method uses the Queens College Step Test. In this test, males step up and down a 16-inch bleacher step 24 times per minute for 3 minutes, and females do 22 steps per minute for 3 minutes. Five seconds after the exercise is complete, a 15-second pulse count P is taken. Maximum oxygen consumption M, in milliliters per kilogram, for males is approximated by M=111.3-1.68P. For females, the recommended formula is F=65.81-0.74P. a. Calculate the maximum oxygen consumption for both a male and a female who show a 15-second pulse count of 40. b. What 15-second pulse count for a male will indicate a maximum oxygen consumption of 35.7 milliliters per kilogram? c. What 15-second pulse count will indicate the same maximum oxygen consumption for a male as for a female? d. What maximum oxygen consumption is associated with your answer in part c?
Power Line A power station is on one side of a river that is 34 mile wide, and a factory is 8 miles downstream on the other side of the river. It costs $24 per foot to run power lines over land and $30 per foot to run them under water. The project’s cost is $1,098,662.40. Find the length x labeled in the figure.
