Answer:

The cost of the can is minimal when r=2 m and h=5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an optimization problem which will be solved by the use of derivatives

We must find an expression for the total cost of the cylindrical can and then find its dimensions to make the cost minimal

Let's picture a cylinder of radius r and height h. Its volume is computed as

V=\pi r^2h

To make the lids we need two circle-shaped pieces of a material which costs $10 per square meter

The area of each lid is

A_l=\pi r^2

The cost of both lids will be

C_l=(2)(10)(\pi r^2)=20\pi r^2

The lateral side of the cylinder can be constructed with a rectangle of material which costs $8 per square meter

The rectangle has a height of h and a width equal to the length of the circumference

A_s=2\pi rh

The cost of the side of the cylinder will be

C_s=16\pi rh

The total cost of the can is

C=20\pi r^2+16\pi rh

We know the volume of the can is 20\pi cubic meters

V=\pi r^2h=20\pi

Isolating h we have

h=\frac{20}{r^2}

Using this value into the total cost

C=20\pi r^2+16\pi r(\frac{20}{r^2})

C=20\pi r^2+\frac{320\pi}{r}

Differentiating with respect to r

C'=40\pi r-\frac{320\pi}{r^2}

To find the critical point, we must set C'=0

40\pi r-\frac{320\pi}{r^2}=0

Operating

40\pi r^3-320\pi=0

Solving for r

r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{320\pi}{40\pi}}=\sqrt[3]{8}

r=2

And since  

h=\frac{20}{r^2}=\frac{20}{2^2}

h=5

Differentiating again we find

C''=40\pi +\frac{640\pi}{r^3}

Which is always positive for r positive. It makes the critical point found a minimum

The cost of the can is minimal when r=2 m and h=5 m

Answer:

2.20752 x 10^{24}

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you have to do is to look for the number of seconds in one year. You have to multiply 365 days by 86,400 seconds.

  • 365 days refer to the total number of days per year
  • 86,400 seconds refer to the number of seconds per day

Let's solve.

  • 365 x 86,400 = 31,536,000 or 3.1536 x 10^{7}

<em>Therefore, one year has 3.1536 x </em>10^{7}<em> seconds.</em>

Next, you have to know the number of seconds in 10 billion years.

  • (3.1536 x 10^{7}) x  (1.0 x 10^{10}) = 3.1536 x 10^{17}

The last step is to multiply the number of seconds in 10 billion years to 7 million tons of mass per second.

  • (3.1536 x 10^{17}) x 7,000,000 = 2.20752 x 10^{24}

mary purchased 3 1/2 pounds of bananas. If the loaf of banana bread requires 3/4 pounds of bananas, how many loaves of banana br
nikklg [1K]
For this one a simple way that you can think of it is that 1 pound of banana is equivalent to 100, 3/4 pounds of banana is 75, 1/2 pounds of banana is 50, etc. 

3 1/2 pounds of banana = 350 

3/4 pounds of banana = 75 

If i want to find out how many loafs of banana bread I can make if ONE loaf requires 3/4 pounds of banana, and i have 3 1/2 pounds of banana then I divide:

350 / 75 = 4.66 

So, with 3 1/2 pounds of bananas you can successfully create 4 loafs of banana bread. the remaining .66 is not enough banana to make another loaf.
