A poster of area 960 cm2 has blank margins of 10 cm wide on the top and bottom and 6 cm wide on the sides. Find the dimensions that maximize the printed area.

Respuesta :

The optimizing function of the printed area is  while dimensions that maximize the printed area is 80 by 12 cm

Assume the dimensions of the poster be w and h, where:

w represents the width.

h represents the height.

So, the area of the poster is:

a= hw

The area is given as 960.

So, we have:

hw = 960

w = 960/h

When the height is reduced by 10 cm and the width by 6 cm.

The printed area (P) becomes

p =(w-12)(h-20)

p =(960/h-12)(h-20)

p = (960-12h/h)(h-20)

p =960h - 19200-12h²+240h

p = -12h²+1200h-19200

p = 80,20

w = 960/h

w = 960/80 = 12

Consequently, 80 by 12 cm are the dimensions that maximize the printed area.
