Ksju [112]

If you know the base and area of the triangle, you can divide the base by 2, then divide that by the area to find the height. To find the height of an equilateral triangle, use the Pythagorean Theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

A home improvement contractor is painting the walls and ceiling of a rectangular room. The volume of the room is 875.00 cubic fe

Reika [66]

Answer:

The room dimensions for a minimum cost are: sides of 10 feet and height of 8.75 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a rectangular room with sides x and height y.

The volume of the room is 875 cubic feet, and can be expressed as:

$V=x^2y=875$

With this equation we can define y in function of x as:

$x^2y=875\\\\y=\dfrac{875}{x^2}$

The cost of wall paint is $0.08 per square foot. We have 4 walls which have an area Aw:

$A_w=xy=x\cdot \dfrac{875}{x^2}=\dfrac{875}{x}$

The cost of ceiling paint is $0.14 per square foot. We have only one ceiling with an area:

$A_c=x^2$

We can express the total cost of painting as:

$C=0.08\cdot (4\cdot A_w)+0.14\cdot A_c\\\\C=0.08\cdot (4\cdot \dfrac{875}{x})+0.14\cdot x^2\\\\\\C=\dfrac{280}{x}+0.14x^2$

To calculate the minimum cost, we derive this function C and equal to zero:

$\dfrac{dC}{dx}=280(-1)\dfrac{1}{x^2}+0.14(2x)=0\\\\\\-\dfrac{280}{x^2}+0.28x=0\\\\\\0.28x=\dfrac{280}{x^2}\\\\\\x^3=\dfrac{280}{0.28}=1000\\\\\\x=\sqrt[3]{1000} =10$

The sides of the room have to be x=10 feet.

The height can be calculated as:

$y=875/x^2=875/(10^2)=875/100=8.75$

The room will have sides of 10 feet and a height of 8.75 feet.
