Wally’s Burger Shack wants to put up a giant sign by Interstate 81. According to local sign ordinances, any sign visible from the interstate must have a frontal square footage of 529feet or less. The entire sign will be a gigantic W cut out from billboard material, as shown in the graph that follows, where the top edges of the W are at a height of 55feet and the boundaries of the W are given by the functions:

(a) ) Write the total area of the front of the W sign in terms of definite integrals. You will need to find the solutions of f(x)=55,r(x)=55,s(x)=55andg(x)=55as part of your work. Be careful about how you divide up the region.

(b) Use your answer to part (a) to calculate the exact frontal square footage of the W sign. Will Wally’s sign meet the local square footage requirements?

Part (a) A(x)=∫x-5.29x-18r(x)dx-∫x-1.5x-18f(x)dx+∫x-18x-30.71s(x)dx∫x-18x-34.49g(x)dx

Part (b) -2676.54square foot.

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) Step 1. Given  information

Diagram:

02

Part (a) Step 2. Calculation

The area under the curve between each of the respective function and the x-axisis given by the definite integral on the interval [a,b]as∫abf(x)dx.

The area under investigation of the sign W can be calculated as given below.

A(x)=∫x-5.29x-18r(x)dx-∫x-1.5x-18f(x)dx+∫x-18x-30.71s(x)dx∫x-18x-34.49g(x)dx

where,

f(1.5)=55andf(22.49)=55r(5.29)=55andr(18.71)=55g(13.51)=55andg(34.49)=55s(17.29)=55ands(30.71)=55

Part (b) Step 1. Calculation

Here,

∫x-5.29x-18r(x)dx=∫x-5.29x-18(x-12)2+10dx=∫x-5.29x-18x2-24x+154dx=[x33-12x2+154x]5.2918=[1944-3888+2772-49.3+335.8-814.7]=299.8

Now,

∫x-1.5x-18f(x)dx=∫x-1.5x-180.5(x-12)2dx =∫x-1.5x-180.5(x2-24x+144)dx=0.5[x33-12x2+144x]1.518 =0.5[1944-3888+2592-1.125+27-216]=0.5(457.875)=228.94

And,

∫x-18x-30.71s(x)dx=∫x-18x-30.71(x-24)2+10dx=∫x-18x-30.71x2-48x+586dx=[x33-24x2+586x]1830.71 =[9654.2-22634.4+17996-1944+7776-10548]=299.8

And,

∫x-18x-34.49g(x)dx=∫x-18x-34.490.5(x-24)2dx =∫x-18x-34.490.5(x2-24x+288)dx=0.5[x33-12x2+288x]1834.49 =0.5[13.675.98-14274.7+9933.12-1944+3888-5184]=0.5[6094]=3047.2

Since,

A(x)=∫x-5.29x-18r(x)dx-∫x-1.5x-18f(x)dx+∫x-18x-30.71s(x)dx∫x-18x-34.49g(x)dxA(x)=299.8-228.94+299.8-3047.2A(x)=-2676.54
