Quadratic Functions Optimization

Farmer Jo has 32 square feet of land in which to make an enclosure for bunnies, chicks, and penguins. (see picture)

Choose the equation that represents this information.

There will be fencing put in around the entire enclosure and in the middle (as pictured) to create 3 sections, what dimensions should the overall enclosure be in order to use the least amount of fence?

Which equation represents the fence amount (F) that you want to minimize?

Farmer Jo has 32 square feet of land in which to make an enclosure for bunnies, chicks, and penguins. There will be fencing put in around the entire enclosure and in the middle (as pictured) to create 3 sections, what dimensions should the overall enclosure be in order to use the least amount of fence?

• The overall enclosure should be 8 feet by 8 feet

• The overall enclosure should be 8 feet by 4 feet

• The overall enclosure should be 32 square feet

Pick the correct interpretation from the given number line for V', the derivative of V.

• V has a minimum at 3

• V has a maximum at both 1 and 5

• V has a maximum at 0 and a minimum at 6

• V has a maximum at 1 and a minimum at 5

• plug in 12 and -12, resulting in a maximum

• plug in 10 and 14, resulting in a minimum

• plug in 10 and 14, resulting in a maximum

• take the derivative of the expression
