The largest possible volume of the given box is; 96.28 ft³

<h3>How to maximize volume of a box?</h3>

Let b be the length and the width of the base (length and width are the same since the base is square).

Let h be the height of the box.

The surface area of the box is;

S = b² + 4bh

We are given S = 100 ft². Thus;

b² + 4bh = 100

h = (100 - b²)/4b

Volume of the box in terms of b will be;

V(b) = b²h = b² * (100 - b²)/4b

V(b) = 25b - b³/4

The volume is maximum when dV/db = 0. Thus;

dV/db = 25 - 3b²/4

25 - 3b²/4 = 0

√(100/3) = b

b = 5.77 ft

Thus;

h = (100 - (√(100/3)²)/4(5.77)

h = 2.8885 ft

Thus;

Largest volume = [√(100/3)]² * 2.8885

Largest Volume = 96.28 ft³

Help Please, anyone good at domain values of composite functions.
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

second choice

Step-by-step explanation:

(f \circ g)(x) =

= f(g(x))

= f(-7x + 7)

= \sqrt{-7x + 7 + 3}

= \sqrt{-7x + 10}

Let x = 5:

(f \circ g)(5) = \sqrt{-7(5) + 10}

(f \circ g)(5) = \sqrt{-35 + 10}

(f \circ g)(5) = \sqrt{-25}

Since using x = 5 gives the square root of a negative number, 5 is not in the domain of the composition of the functions.

Helppp meeee please
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The Equation for lyft is:

4.50x

The Equation for uber is

2.50x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to determine which one is better then you can just plug in the distance in place of x. For example if it asked you which one was better for 5 miles, uber or lyft you could plug 5 into the equation.

It would look like this

Lyft: 4.50 (5)= 22.5

Uber

2.50 (5) +5= 17.5

If the distance were 5 miles uber would be the better option.
