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

The necklace charm shown has two parts, each shaped like a trapezoid with identical dimensions. What is the total area, in squar
pashok25 [27]
The area of the trapezoid can be calculated through the equation, 
                               A = (b₁ + b₂)h / 2
where b₁ and b₂ are the bases and h is the height. Substituting the known values from the given, 
                              A = (25mm + 32mm)(15 mm) / 2 
                               A = 427.5 mm²
Since there are two trapezoids in the necklace, the area calculated is to be multiplied by two to get the total area. 
                        total area = (427.5 mm²)(2) 
                        <em>total area = 855 mm²</em>

Sin theta+costheta/sintheta -costheta+sintheta-costheta/sintheta+costheta=2sec2/tan2 theta -1
sleet_krkn [62]

\dfrac{sin\theta + cos\theta}{sin\theta-cos\theta}+\dfrac{sin\theta-cos\theta}{sin\theta+cos\theta}=\dfrac{2sec^2\theta}{tan^2\theta-1}

From Left side:

\dfrac{sin\theta + cos\theta}{sin\theta-cos\theta}\bigg(\dfrac{sin\theta+cos\theta}{sin\theta+cos\theta}\bigg)+\dfrac{sin\theta-cos\theta}{sin\theta+cos\theta}\bigg(\dfrac{sin\theta-cos\theta}{sin\theta-cos\theta}\bigg)

\dfrac{sin^2\theta+2cos\thetasin\theta+cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}+\dfrac{sin^2\theta-2cos\thetasin\theta+cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}

NOTE: sin²θ + cos²θ = 1

\dfrac{1 + 2cos\theta sin\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}+\dfrac{1-2cos\theta sin\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}

\dfrac{1 + 2cos\theta sin\theta+1-2cos\theta sin\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}

\dfrac{2}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}

\dfrac{2}{\bigg(sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta\bigg)\bigg(\dfrac{cos^2\theta}{cos^2\theta}\bigg)}

\dfrac{2sec^2\theta}{\dfrac{sin^2\theta}{cos^2\theta}-\dfrac{cos^2\theta}{cos^2\theta}}

\dfrac{2sec^2\theta}{tan^2\theta-1}

Left side = Right side <em>so proof is complete</em>

It cost $5000 to feed
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Okays so for 100 guests we can make the equation $5000 ÷ 100 = $50.00

For 100 guests at the wedding it would cost <u>$50.00</u> per plate

For 45 guests we can make the equation $2750 ÷ 45 = $61.111111111111, it would be a repeating decimal

For 45 guests at the wedding, it would cost <u>$61.111111111111</u>

I hope that this can help you! ^‿^
