Continuing from the setup in the question linked above (and using the same symbols/variables), we have

\displaystyle\iint_{\mathcal S}\mathbf f\cdot\mathrm d\mathbf S=\iiint_{\mathcal R}(\nabla\cdot f)\,\mathrm dV
=\displaystyle6\int_{z=0}^{z=c}\int_{y=0}^{y=b}\int_{x=0}^{x=a}(5-x)\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dz
=\displaystyle6bc\int_0^a(5-x)\,\mathrm dx
=6bc\left(5a-\dfrac{a^2}2\right)=3abc(10-a)

The next part of the question asks to maximize this result - our target function which we'll call g(a,b,c)=3abc(10-a) - subject to 0\le a,b,c\le12.

We can see that g is quadratic in a, so let's complete the square.

g(a,b,c)=-3bc(a^2-10a+25-25)=3bc(25-(a-5)^2)

Since b,c are non-negative, it stands to reason that the total product will be maximized if a-5 vanishes because 25-(a-5)^2 is a parabola with its vertex (a maximum) at (5, 25). Setting a=5, it's clear that the maximum of g will then be attained when b,c are largest, so the largest flux will be attained at (a,b,c)=(5,12,12), which gives a flux of 10,800.

There are 173 basketball fans who plan to go to a game. How many buses will be needed, given that each bus can hold 46 fans?
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

4 buses

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 173 basketball fans

one bus can hold 46 fans

Hence the number of buses needed can be calculated as follows

= 173/46

= 3.76

= 4

Hence 4 buses are needed
