The function in variable w giving the cost C (in dollars) of constructing the box is C(w) = 30w² + 270/w. The result is obtained by using the formula of volume and area of the box.

<h3>How to determine the function?</h3>

We have a rectangular storage container without a lid.

  • Volume, V = 10 m³
  • Length, l = 2w
  • Width, w = w
  • Base costs $15/m²
  • Sides costs $9/m²

The formula of volume of the box is

V = l × w × h

Where

  • l = length
  • w = width
  • h = height

So, the height is

10 = 2w × w × h

10 = 2w² × h

h = 10/2w²

h = 5/w²

To find the total cost, calculate the area of base and sides of the box!

See the picture in the attachment!

The base area is

A₁ = 2w × w = 2w² m²

The sides area is

A₂ = 2(2wh + wh)

A₂ = 2(3wh)

A₂ = 6wh

A₂ = 6w(5/w²)

A₂ = 30/w m²

The total cost is

C = $15(2w²) + $9(30/w)

C = $30w² + $270/w

The function of the total cost is

C(w) = 30w² + 270/w

Hence, the function of constructing the box is C(w) = 30w² + 270/w.

Which of the following linear equations has the steepest slope
Pani-rosa [81]

Option B: 8x+1 has the steepest slope

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is defined as the rate of change of a line

The steepness of a slope means how close it is to being vertical

The greater value of slope means, more steepness. The value of slope can wither b positive or negative

We have to compare the slopes of all given options to find the steepest slope

As the options are in slope-intercept form, the coefficients of x will be the slope

So,

a. Slope = -4

b. Slope = 8

c. Slope = 2/3 = 0.66

d . Slope = 1/7 = 0.14

We can see that the largest value of slope in negative and positive is 8

So,

Option B: 8x+1 has the steepest slope

Answer:

It is an isosceles  triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

sum of angles of triangle = 180

since it is isosceles two angles will be same. let it be x.

x + x + 22 = 180

2x = 180 - 22

2x = 158

x = 79°
