A box with a square base and open top must have a volume of 296352 c m 3 . We wish to find the dimensions of the box that minimi

mestny [16]

Answer:

Base Length of 84cm
Height of 42 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a box with a square base and an open top which must have a volume of 296352 cubic centimetre. We want to minimize the amount of material used.

Step 1:

Let the side length of the base =x

Let the height of the box =h

Since the box has a square base

Volume, $V=x^2h=296352$

$h=\dfrac{296352}{x^2}$

Surface Area of the box = Base Area + Area of 4 sides

$A(x,h)=x^2+4xh\\$Substitute h=\dfrac{296352}{x^2}\\A(x)=x^2+4x\left(\dfrac{296352}{x^2}\right)\\A(x)=\dfrac{x^3+1185408}{x}$

Step 2: Find the derivative of A(x)

$If\:A(x)=\dfrac{x^3+1185408}{x}\\A'(x)=\dfrac{2x^3-1185408}{x^2}$

Step 3: Set A'(x)=0 and solve for x

$A'(x)=\dfrac{2x^3-1185408}{x^2}=0\\2x^3-1185408=0\\2x^3=1185408\\$Divide both sides by 2\\x^3=592704\\$Take the cube root of both sides\\x=\sqrt[3]{592704}\\x=84$

Step 4: Verify that x=84 is a minimum value

We use the second derivative test

$A''(x)=\dfrac{2x^3+2370816}{x^3}\\$When x=84$\\A''(x)=6$

Since the second derivative is positive at x=84, then it is a minimum point.

Recall:

$h=\dfrac{296352}{x^2}=\dfrac{296352}{84^2}=42$

Therefore, the dimensions that minimizes the box surface area are:

Base Length of 84cm
Height of 42 cm.

the 41st term of the arithmetic sequence is -539 and the 54th term is -708. Find the value of the 80th term

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

$a _{n} = a _{1} + (n - 1)d \\ a _{41} = - 534 \\ a _{54} = - 708 \\ a _{41} = a _{1} + (41 - 1)d = - 534 \\ a _{1} + 40d = - 534 \: \: ...(1)\\ a _{54} = a _{1} + (54 - 1)d =- 708 \\ a _{1} + 53d = - 708 \: \: ...(2)$

Try to solve the similtanious equation to find the first term and the common difference, then use that information to figure out the 80th term... Update me if you need further help ...
