A wire that is 16 centimeters long is shown below. The wire is cut into two pieces, and each piece is bent and formed into the shape of a square. Suppose that the side length (in centimeters) of one square is x, as shown below. 16 cm (a) Find a function that gives the total area A (x) enclosed by the two squares (in square centimeters) in terms of x. 4() = 0 (b) Find the side length x that minimizes the total area of the two squares. Side length x : I centimeters (c) What is the minimum area enclosed by the two squares?

The spread of oil leaking from a tanker is in the shape of a circle.  If the radius r (in feet) of the spread after x hours is r(x) = nx (n=25). If the equation A(x) = pi (25x)^2 is used to determine the area at a given time, how would you determine the time when the oil patch will reach 100,000 square feet?

The owner of a computer Store estimates that t years from now, the stores total sales revenue will be $ (t) = (1200t / 0.5 + 0.4t ) + 100 thousand dollars. Use calculus to determine the rate at which the stores total sales revenue will be changing with respect to time five years from now.
