The smallest amount of material needed is 54 square centimeters

<h3>How to determine the amount of material needed?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Volume = 36 cubic centimeters

Represent length with x, width with y and height with z.

So, we have

x = 3y

The volume is calculated as:

V = xyz

This gives

V = 3y²z

Substitute 36 for V

3y²z = 36

Divide by 3

y²z = 12

Make z the subject

z = 12/y²

The surface area is:

S = 2(xy + xz + yz)

This gives

S = 2(3y² + 3yz + yz)

Evaluate the like terms

S = 2(3y² + 4yz)

Expand

S = 6y² + 8yz

Substitute z = 12/y²

S = 6y² + 8y * 12/y²

This gives

S = 6y² + 96/y

Differentiate

S' = 12y -  96/y²

Set to 0

12y -  96/y² = 0

Multiply through by y²

12y³ - 96 = 0

Add 96 to both sides

12y³ = 96

Divide by 12

y³ = 8

Take the cube root of both sides

y = 2

Recall that:

x = 3y and z = 12/y²

This gives

x = 3 * 2 = 6

z = 12/2² = 3

Recall that:

S = 2(xy + xz + yz)

So, we have:

S = 2(6 * 2 + 3 * 3 + 2 * 3)

Evaluate

S = 54

Hence, the smallest amount of material needed is 54 square centimeters

k is a an integer for which 1/2^1-k, 1/8. What is the value of k? 1/2^1-k must be equal to 1/8 if i read the question right.
svetlana [45]

Answer:

k = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

If \frac12^{1-k}=\frac18

Then

\frac1{2^{1-k}}=\frac18=\frac1{2^3}

So

1-k = 3

From this follows k = -2

Find the value of X and give a reason for the relation ship between the angles.
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

x = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 14) + 99 + 220 = 360

x - 14 + 99 + 220 = 360

x - 14 + 319 = 360

x + 305 = 360

x = 360 - 305

x = 55
