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

Needs Clarification Please! Explain how the graph of each given function is a transformation of the graph of y = x^2
Katen [24]
In 1. the graph would open down because of the negative sign in front of the 2.  The 2 in front of the x, would excel the growth of the graph by a factor of 2, making it more narrow.

on the second problem the -5, being that it is tied to the x and being squared and inside of the (), would cause the graph to shift 5 units to the right (always opposite of the sign in front of the number.

Need help with I ready math
vovangra [49]

Answer:

5(P - 1.00) + 3(P - 0.75)

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of a package in store A = $P

Discount offered at store A = $1.00

Price paid per package at store A = Cost of a package in store A - Discount offered at store A

= P - 1.00

Cost of a package in store B = $P

Discount offered at store B = $0.75

Price paid per package at store B = Cost of a package in store B - Discount offered at store B

= P - 0.75

Total cost of 5 packages at store A and 3 packages at store B = 5(P - 1.00) + 3(P - 0.75)

AC is the diameter. Calculate the area of the sector (to the nearest whole number) created by ∠CDB.
TiliK225 [7]

Area of the circle is πr² which corresponds to an angle of 360° subtended at the center. Thus, the area of a sector subtending angle \theta at the centre is:

Area= \frac{\theta}{360}\times \pi r^2

In this case put $\theta$ equal to 30°

Why is easier to subtract when numbers are written above and bellow each other?
attashe74 [19]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Brainly User

In my opinion, no. Others may think that when you subtract this way, it is much easier. My way to subtract numbers is below:-


Example: 17 - 11


Take the numbers that seem easy to add.


10 - 10 = 0

7 - 1 = 6

6+0 = 6


Now, we know that 17 - 11 = 6


We could have done it this way:-


  17

-  11

----------

 0 6

Kathy has a coin, what is the probability of flipping three heads in a row? Please choose one answer.
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer and Explanation:

The probability of flipping a coin to get heads is 1/2 or 50%. If you multiply this, by how many times you flip it, or 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2, then you get 1/8 or 12.5% chance that she will get heads 3 times in a row
