Volume is given to be 4.5 m^3

v = length x width x height
v = lwh
want everything in one variable w
given that;
l = 2w
using volume...
h = 4.5 / lw
h = 4.5 / 2w^2

surface area = wl + 2hl + 2wh
sub for length and height
s = 2w^2 + 9/w + 4.5/w
s = 2w^2 + 13.5/w
derivative s
s' = 4w - 13.5/w^2
0 = 4w - 13.5/w^2
13.5/w^2 = 4w
13.5 = 4w^3
13.5/4 = w^3
3.375 = w^3
cube root
1.5 meters = w
then the length = 2(1.5) = 3 meters
height = 4.5/(3*1.5) = 1 meter

Given that 1 kilogram weighs approximately 22 pounds, rewrite 10 pounds as an equivalent number of kilograms
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

0.4545 kgs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 1 kg weighs approximately 22 pounds.

i.e. 1kg= 22 lbs.

We can use this to convert lbs into kg.

22 lbs = 1 kg

Hence 1 lb = 1/22 = 0.04545 kg

Now to find out the equivalent weight for 10lbs,

we have conversion factor as 1 lb= 0.04545 kg

Hence 10 lbs = 10(0.04545) = 0.4545 kgs

Hence 10 pounds written in equivalent kgs would be0.4545 kgs.
