Answer:  

85in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the surface area we need to find the followng areas:  

  • area of the square  
  • area of a triangle and multiply it by 4 (because there are 4 triangles)

And once we have those areas, we add them to find the surface area.

Area of the square:

the formula to find the area of a square is:

a_{square}=l^2

where l is the length of the side: l=5in

thus the area of the square is:

a_{square}=(5in)^2

a_{square}=25in^2

Area of the triangles:

the are of 1 triangle is given by

a_{triangle} =\frac{b*h}{2}

where b is the base of the triangle: b=5in (the base of the triangle is the side of the square)

and h is the height of the triangle: h=6in

thus, the area of 1 triangle is:

a_{triangle} =\frac{(5in)*(6in)}{2}

a_{triangle} =\frac{30in^2}{2}

a_{triangle} =15in^2

the area of the 4 triangles is (we multiply by 4):

a_{4-triangles}=4(15in^2)

a_{4-triangles}=60in^2

finally we add the area of the square and the area of the 4 triangles to find the total surface area:

Surface=25in^2+60in^2

Surface=85in^2

Aki's Bicycle Designs has determined that when x hundred bicycles are​ built, the average cost per bicycle is given by​ C(x)equa
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

20 Bicycles

Step-by-step explanation:

The function for the average cost,C(x) [in hundred of dollars] per bicycle whenever x hundred bicycles are built is given as:

C(x)=0.5x^2-0.2x+6.756

The minimum value of C occurs at the axis of symmetry.

Axis of Symmetry, x=-\frac{b}{2a}

Comparing with the standard form of a quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c=0

a=0.5, b=-0.2

x=-\frac{(-0.2)}{2*0.5}\\x=0.2

x=0.2 Hundreds =0.2 X 100 =20

When Aki's Bicycle Designs produces 20 Bicycles, the cost is minimized.
