The amount of wrapping paper he need to cover the shoebox is 190 square inches

<h3>Surface area of a box</h3>

The formula for calculating the surface area of a box is expressed as:

SA = 2(lw + wh + lh)

where

l is the length

w is the width

h is the height

Given the following parameters

l = 10in

w = 5in

h =3in

Substitute

S = 2(10*5 + 5*3 + 10*3)

S = 2(50+15+30)

S = 2(95)

S = 190 square inches

Hence the amount of wrapping paper he need to cover the shoebox is 190 square inches

I forgot how to do this n they didn’t put an example help me lol

Answer:

60 $m^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the area of the square as it the missing piece wasn't missing.

8 x 9 = 72 $m^2$

Then, find the area of the missing section.

3 x 4 = 12 $m^2$

Finally, subtract 12 $m^2$ from 72 $m^2$ and you get 60 $m^2$

What is the twentieth term of the arithmetic sequence described by the<br> equation an= 3n - 10?

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The twentieth term is 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that describes the arithmetic sequence describes it's "general term", which means that all the numbers in that sequence must follow that equation. For instance, if we want to find the first term of the sequence we must make a = 1 and we have:

a1 = 3*1 - 10

a1 = -7

Therefore to find the twentieth term we need to make n equal to 20. This is done below:

a20 = 3*20 - 10

a20 = 60 - 10

a20 = 50

The twentieth term is 50.

Find (f-g)(x) when f(x)=3x+2 g(x)=2x^2-4 h(x)=x^2-x+7

Ad libitum [116K]

(f + g)(x) = f (x) + g(x)

= [3x + 2] + [4 – 5x]

= 3x + 2 + 4 – 5x

= 3x – 5x + 2 + 4

= –2x + 6

Use Lagrange multipliers to find the maximum and minimum values of the function subject to the given constraint. (If an answer d

aliya0001 [1]

The Lagrangian

$L(x,y,z,\lambda)=x^2+y^2+z^2+\lambda(x^4+y^4+z^4-13)$

has critical points where the first derivatives vanish:

$L_x=2x+4\lambda x^3=2x(1+2\lambda x^2)=0\implies x=0\text{ or }x^2=-\dfrac1{2\lambda}$

$L_y=2y+4\lambda y^3=2y(1+2\lambda y^2)=0\implies y=0\text{ or }y^2=-\dfrac1{2\lambda}$

$L_z=2z+4\lambda z^3=2z(1+2\lambda z^2)=0\implies z=0\text{ or }z^2=-\dfrac1{2\lambda}$

$L_\lambda=x^4+y^4+z^4-13=0$

We can't have $x=y=z=0$ , since that contradicts the last condition.

(0 critical points)

If two of them are zero, then the remaining variable has two possible values of $\pm\sqrt[4]{13}$ . For example, if $y=z=0$ , then $x^4=13\implies x=\pm\sqrt[4]{13}$ .

(6 critical points; 2 for each non-zero variable)

If only one of them is zero, then the squares of the remaining variables are equal and we would find $\lambda=-\frac1{\sqrt{26}}$ (taking the negative root because $x^2,y^2,z^2$ must be non-negative), and we can immediately find the critical points from there. For example, if $z=0$ , then $x^4+y^4=13$ . If both $x,y$ are non-zero, then $x^2=y^2=-\frac1{2\lambda}$ , and

$xL_x+yL_y=2(x^2+y^2)+52\lambda=-\dfrac2\lambda+52\lambda=0\implies\lambda=\pm\dfrac1{\sqrt{26}}$

$\implies x^2=\sqrt{\dfrac{13}2}\implies x=\pm\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2}$

and for either choice of $x$ , we can independently choose from $y=\pm\sqrt[4]{\frac{13}2}$ .

(12 critical points; 3 ways of picking one variable to be zero, and 4 choices of sign for the remaining two variables)

If none of the variables are zero, then $x^2=y^2=z^2=-\frac1{2\lambda}$ . We have

$xL_x+yL_y+zL_z=2(x^2+y^2+z^2)+52\lambda=-\dfrac3\lambda+52\lambda=0\implies\lambda=\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{39}}{26}$

$\implies x^2=\sqrt{\dfrac{13}3}\implies x=\pm\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3}$

and similary $y,z$ have the same solutions whose signs can be picked independently of one another.

(8 critical points)

Now evaluate $f$ at each critical point; you should end up with a maximum value of $\sqrt{39}$ and a minimum value of $\sqrt{13}$ (both occurring at various critical points).

Here's a comprehensive list of all the critical points we found:

$(\sqrt[4]{13},0,0)$

$(-\sqrt[4]{13},0,0)$

$(0,\sqrt[4]{13},0)$

$(0,-\sqrt[4]{13},0)$

$(0,0,\sqrt[4]{13})$

$(0,0,-\sqrt[4]{13})$

$\left(\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},0\right)$

$\left(-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},0\right)$

$\left(-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},0\right)$

$\left(\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},0,\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2}\right)$
