(x**2 – 6* x + 5) = (x-1)*(x-5)
(x**2 + 2 * x + 1) = (x + 1) * (x+1) = (x+1)**2
For what x is (x-1)*(x-5)/( (x+1)**2) a minimum?
One way to answer this question is by using calculus.
Take the derivative, and set to zero.
Since this is a fraction of polynomials, and a fraction is
zero only if it’s numerator is zero, we need calculate only
the numerator of the derivative and set it to zero.
The numerator of the
Derivative of (x-1)*(x-5)/( (x+1)**2) is
( (x-1) + (x-5) ) ( x+1)**2 – (x-1)(x-5)( 2 (x+1) )
= (2 x – 6) (x+1)**2 – (2) (x-1)(x-5) (x+1)
= 0
Divide through by 2 (x+1)
(x-3)(x+1) – (x-1)(x-5) = 0
(x**2 – 2 x – 3 ) – (x**2 – 6 x + 5) = 0
x**2 – x**2 – 2 x + 6 x – 3 – 5 = 0
4 x – 8 = 0
x = 2
Plugging in x = 2 into the original
(x**2-6*x+5)/(x**2+2*x+1)
gives us (2**2 – 6 * 2 + 5)/(2**2 + 2*2 + 1)
= (4 – 12 + 5) / (4 + 4 + 1) = -3/9 = -1/3
Least value is -1/3

given distance of the train along the wind is 695
and againt the wind is 498
and time = distance/speed
as we know that time is equal in both the cases hence equate
695/s1=498/s2———–(1);
where s1=speed of the plane + speed of the wind
and s2=speed of the plane -speed of the wind
given that speed of the wind is 21k/h
s1=sp+21
s2=sp-21
substitu in eq 1
we get the answer as 27.17(app)

A = (B*H)/2
H = 2B
formula becomes A = (B*2*B)/2
this can be rewritten as A = (2*B^2)/2
the 2 in the numerator and denominator cancel out and you get:
A = B^2
