Answer:

Let the width of the base be x and the height of the box be y. The base is a square so its area is x2. Then the volume of the box is "base area times height", so the volume is V=x2y=40ft3.

The area of the base is x2, so the cost of the base is 0.31x2.

The area of each side is xy, so the cost of each side is 0.05xy, so the cost of all four sides is 4×0.05xy=0.2xy.

The area of the top is x2, so the cost of the top is 0.19x2.

So the total cost is C=0.31x2+0.19x2+0.2xy=0.5x2+0.2xy.

Since x2y=40, we have y=40/x2, so C=0.5x2+0.2x×40x2=0.5x2+8x. This we can optimise using derivatives.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x please thanks​
N76 [4]

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

So, lets go over what we know:

The equation to find x is the same on both sides.

Now, lets find this equation:

So, the total area of the two lines on the left side of the triangle are 24.

Lets first subtract the first line from the total of the two lines to find the value of the second line:

24-3

=

21.

Now that we know the value of the 2nd line is 21. lets divide it by the first line(3) to find the scale factor:

21/3

=

7

So the scale factor is 7!

Lets plug this in for x.

We know that the first line is 4.

The second line is 7x bigger than 4.

So we can calculate this as:

7x4

=

28

So x is 28!

This is your answer!

Hope it helps! :)

A cube has six sides that are numbered 1 to 6. The sides numbered 1, 2, and 5 are green, and the sides numbered 3, 4,
Katarina [22]

Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides numbered 1,2,5 are green and 2,4,6 are even  

We cannot count the 2 twice, so there are 5 unique possibilities of getting either a green or an even

There are 6 total possibilities when rolling the die  1,2,3,4,5,6

P (green or even) = green or even/ total

                             = 5/6
