Answer:
Dimensions to minimize surface are is 28 ft x 28 ft x 14 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The Volume of a box with a square base of say;x cm by x cm and height
h cm is;
V = x²h
Now, the amount of material used is directly proportional to the surface area, hence we will minimize the amount of material by minimizing the surface area.
The formula for the surface area of the box described is given by;
A = x² + 4xh
However, we need A as a function of
only x, so we'll use the formula;
V = x²h
V = x²h = 10,976 ft³
So,
h = 10976/x²
So,
A = x² + 4x(10976/x²)
A = x² + 43904/x
So, to minimize the area, it will be at dA/dx = 0.
So,
dA/dx = 2x - 43904/x² = 0
Factorizing out, we have;
2x³ = 43904
x³ = 43904/2
x³ = 21952
x = ∛21952
x = 28 ft
since, h = 10976/x²
h = 10976/28² = 14 ft
Thus,dimension to minimize surface are is 28 ft x 28 ft x 14 ft
Answer:
18 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
--- radius
--- distance between chord and the center of the circle
Required
The chord length
See attachment for illustration
First, calculate distance AX using Pythagoras theorem.
This gives:
Collect like terms
Take square roots of both sides
AB is then calculated as:
Where:
So:
Answer:
A = 28 units ^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle is
A = 1/2 bh
The base is 14 and the height is 4
A = 1/2 (4) * 14
A = 28 units ^2
Hey there! :D
Find the amount it costs with sales tax.
6%= 0.06
46*.06= 2.76
46+2.76= 48.76
48.76< 50
He can afford everything in his cart because 48.76 is less than 50.
I hope this helps!
