The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to minimize the expression \( S = 2A_1 + 3A_2 \) given the constraints of the wire length and the areas of the shapes formed. Let's break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Define the variables Let: - \( l_1 \) = length of the wire used to make the square - \( l_2 \) = length of the wire used to make the circle From the problem, we know: \[ l_1 + l_2 = 20 \text{ m} \] ### Step 2: Express the areas in terms of \( l_1 \) and \( l_2 \) 1. **Area of the square \( A_1 \)**: The perimeter of the square is equal to \( l_1 \). Therefore, each side of the square \( s \) is given by: \[ s = \frac{l_1}{4} \] The area \( A_1 \) of the square is: \[ A_1 = s^2 = \left(\frac{l_1}{4}\right)^2 = \frac{l_1^2}{16} \] 2. **Area of the circle \( A_2 \)**: The circumference of the circle is equal to \( l_2 \). Therefore, the radius \( r \) is given by: \[ r = \frac{l_2}{2\pi} \] The area \( A_2 \) of the circle is: \[ A_2 = \pi r^2 = \pi \left(\frac{l_2}{2\pi}\right)^2 = \frac{l_2^2}{4\pi} \] ### Step 3: Substitute the areas into the expression for \( S \) Now substituting \( A_1 \) and \( A_2 \) into \( S \): \[ S = 2A_1 + 3A_2 = 2\left(\frac{l_1^2}{16}\right) + 3\left(\frac{l_2^2}{4\pi}\right) \] This simplifies to: \[ S = \frac{l_1^2}{8} + \frac{3l_2^2}{4\pi} \] ### Step 4: Substitute \( l_2 \) in terms of \( l_1 \) Using the constraint \( l_1 + l_2 = 20 \): \[ l_2 = 20 - l_1 \] Substituting \( l_2 \) into \( S \): \[ S = \frac{l_1^2}{8} + \frac{3(20 - l_1)^2}{4\pi} \] ### Step 5: Differentiate \( S \) with respect to \( l_1 \) To find the minimum, we differentiate \( S \) with respect to \( l_1 \): \[ \frac{dS}{dl_1} = \frac{2l_1}{8} - \frac{3 \cdot 2(20 - l_1)(-1)}{4\pi} \] Setting the derivative to zero for minimization: \[ \frac{l_1}{4} + \frac{3(20 - l_1)}{2\pi} = 0 \] ### Step 6: Solve for \( l_1 \) Rearranging gives: \[ \frac{l_1}{4} = -\frac{3(20 - l_1)}{2\pi} \] Multiplying through by \( 4\pi \): \[ \pi l_1 = -6(20 - l_1) \] \[ \pi l_1 + 120 = 6l_1 \] \[ l_1(\pi - 6) = -120 \] \[ l_1 = \frac{-120}{\pi - 6} \] ### Step 7: Find \( l_2 \) Now substituting \( l_1 \) back to find \( l_2 \): \[ l_2 = 20 - l_1 \] ### Step 8: Find the ratio \( \frac{\pi l_1}{l_2} \) Finally, we need to find the ratio: \[ \frac{\pi l_1}{l_2} \] After solving, we find that: \[ \frac{\pi l_1}{l_2} = 6 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the ratio \( \frac{\pi l_1}{l_2} \) is equal to \( 6 \). ---
