the first box measures 18 inches by 8 inches by 15 inches. the second box is 10 inches tall and the area of the base measures 19

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Box 1 has the greater volume, by 200 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest of two volumes can be found by computing each volume and comparing the results.

<h3>Box 1</h3>

The volume is computed from dimensions by ...

V = LWH

V = (18 in)(8 in)(15 in) = 2160 in³

__

<h3>Box 2</h3>

The volume is computed from area and height by ...

V = Bh . . . . . where B is the base area, and h is the height

V = (196 in²)(10 in) = 1960 in³

__

<h3>Comparison</h3>

The units of the two volumes are the same, so we can decide which is larger by comparing the numbers. Box 1 has a volume that is more than 2000 in³, and Box 2 has a volume that is less than 2000 in³.

Box 1 has a greater volume

The amount by which the volume is greater can be found by subtracting the smaller volume from the larger:

2160 in³ -1960 in³ = 200 in³

Box 1 is larger by 200 in³

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The percentage by which Box 1 is larger than Box 2 can be found by multiplying 100% by the ratio of the difference to the Box 1 volume:

200/1960 × 100% ≈ 10.2%

Box 1 is about 10% larger than Box 2.

Find the minimum value if f(x) = xe^x over [-2,0]

SashulF [63]

Given function:

$f(x)=xe^x$

The minimum value of the function can be found by setting the first derivative of the function to zero.

$f^{\prime}(x)=xe^x+e^x$ $\begin{gathered} xe^x+e^x\text{ = 0} \\ e^x(x\text{ + 1) = 0} \end{gathered}$

Solving for x:

$\begin{gathered} x\text{ + 1 = 0} \\ x\text{ = -1} \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} e^x\text{ = 0} \\ \text{Does not exist} \end{gathered}$

Substituting the value of x into the original function:

$\begin{gathered} f(x=1)=-1\times e^{^{-1}}_{} \\ =\text{ -}0.368 \end{gathered}$

Hence, the minimum value in the given range is (-1, -0.368)
