A shipping company must design a closed rectangular shipping crate with a square base. The volume is 2880ft3. The material for t

he top and sides costs $3 per square foot and the material for the bottom costs $7 per square foot. Find the dimensions of the crate that will minimize the total cost of material.

The dimensions of the crate that will minimize the total cost of material are 10, 10, and 29.

<h3>How to compute the dimension?</h3>

The volume will be:

= Length × Width × Height

= lwh

For the square base, w = l

2880 = w²h

The cost function will be:

C = 12wl + 4wh + 4lh

Put l = w.

C = 12w² + 8wh

C = 12w² + 8w(2880/w²)

C = 12w² + 23040/w

Differentiate with respect to w

C'(w) = 0

24w = 23040/w²

24w³ = 23040

w³ = 960

w = 10 approximately

The length is 16 as well as they are the same. The height will be:

= 2880/w²

= 2880/10²

= 28.8 = 29

Therefore, the dimensions are 10, 10, and 29.

given
1x^2-4x+85=0
a=1
b=-4
c=85

x=\frac{-(-4)+/- \sqrt{(-4)^2-4(1)(85)} }{2(1)}
x=\frac{4+/- \sqrt{16-340} }{2}
x=\frac{4+/- \sqrt{-324} }{2}
x=\frac{4+/- (\sqrt{-1})(\sqrt{324}) }{2}
remember that √-1=i
x=\frac{4+/- i(\sqrt{324}) }{2}
x=\frac{4+/- i(18) }{2}
x=2+/-9i

x=2+9i or x=2-9i

Can someone explain how to do this and add the formula please
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

5 is 35 and 6 is 50

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve 5, you need to know how many degrees is the line, which is 180 because lines are 180 degrees. You then subtract 110 from 180 which equals to 70. What you have left now is 2k. A number times 2 will equal to 70, so k=35.

For 6, if you ever see two lines intersecting each other, it means that it is 360 degrees. We already have one angle, which is 120. The other angle is d+70 degrees, and any angle that is reflecting the other angle will have the same value. So, d equals 50

En una muestra de 50 restaurantes de comida rápida, la venta media fue de $3.000, y la desviación estándar, $200. El intervalo d
Step2247 [10]

Respuesta:

(2945.411; 3054.589)

Explicación paso a paso:

Dado ;

Tamaño de la muestra, n = 50

Media, xbar = 3000

Desviación estándar, s = 200

Nivel de confianza, Zcrítico al 95% = 1,96

El intervalo de confianza se define como:

Xbar ± margen de error

Margen de error = Zcrítico * s / sqrt (n)

Margen de error = 1,96 * 200 / sqrt (50)

Margen de error = 54.589

Límite inferior = (3000 - 54.589) = 2945.411

Límite superior = (3000 + 54.589) = 3054.589

(2945.411; 3054.589)
