4.6 Completing the Square to Determine Max or Min • Word Problem – Example 1: A glassworks that makes lead-crystal bowls has a daily production cost “C” in dollars given by the relation C = 0.2b² - 10b + 650 • How many bowls should be made to minimize production cost? What is the cost when this many bowls are made?
4.6 Completing the Square to Determine Max or Min • Word Problem – Example 1: C = 0.2b² - 10b + 650 C = 0.2(b² - 50b)+ 650 (Step 1) C = 0.2(b² - 50b + 625 - 625) + 650 (Step 2) C = 0.2(b² - 50b + 625) + 650 – 125 (Step 3) C = 0.2(b – 25)² + 525 (Step 4) The vertex is at (25, 525). This means that the cost is minimized when 25 bowls are made. The production cost for 25 bowls is $525
4.6 Completing the Square to Determine Max or Min • Word Problem – Example 2: A gardener wants to enclose a rectangular vegetable garden with 60 concrete curb stones, each 1 m long. • (a) Write an expression for the number of curb stones used (the perimeter) and for the total area • (b) Use the perimeter expression to rewrite the area expression in terms of only one variable • (c) How should the gardener lay out the curb stones to maximize the total enclosed area?
4.6 Completing the Square to Determine Max or Min • Word Problem – Example 2: Let w represent the width & l the length • The perimeter is P = 2w + 2l and the area is A = l x w 60 = 2w + 2l (substitute 60 for P) 2l = 60 – 2w (rearrange) l = 30 – w (÷ by 2)
