Suppose the aquarium's shape is a square prism, with each side of the square having length x, and the aquarium's height is y, so we have: 
<span> x^2 * y = 13.5
</span> <span>y = 13.5/(x^2) 
</span><span> The area of each side is xy, and there are four sides, so that totals 4xy 
</span><span> The area of the bottom is x^2 
</span><span> Total surface area: 
</span><span> A = x^2 + 4xy 
</span><span> A = x^2 + 4x(13.5/(x^2))
</span> <span>A = x^2 + 54x^(-1) 
</span><span> dA/dx = 2x - 54x^(-2) 
</span><span> Set the derivative to zero: 
</span><span> 2x - 54x^(-2) = 0 
</span><span> 2x = 54/(x^2) 
</span><span> 2x^3 = 54 
</span><span> x^3 = 54/2 
</span><span> x^3 = 27 
</span><span> x = cbrt(27) = 3, assuming x is a real number 
</span><span> A = 3^2 + 54*3^(-1) 
</span><span> A = 9 + 18
</span><span> A = 27 square feet</span>

loris [4]

Answer:

cost of a box is $3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

sold box = 18

earned = $136.50

solution

we consider here number of boxes of cookies is x

and

for we get Tyler sold  cookies box so number of boxes we divide 702 cookies among 18 is

Tyler sold  = \frac{702}{18}

Tyler sold  = 39 boxes

and

now we consider here y as cost of each box of cookies,

so for cost or sale price of the cookie boxes here we divided 136.50 dollars among 39 boxes

so

cost of each box = \frac{136.5}{39}

cost of each box = 3.5

Thus, the cost of each box was 3.5

Keith wants to make cupcakes. To make cupcakes he needs 1 3/10 cups of flour per batch of cupcakes. If Keith has 13 cups of flou
marin [14]

Answer: Keith can make 10 batches of cupcakes.

Step-by-step explanation:

To make cupcakes, he needs 1 3/10 cups of flour per batch of cupcakes. Converting 1 3/10 cups of flour into improper fraction, it becomes 13/10 cups of flour.

Let x represent the number of batches of cupcakes that Keith can make If Keith has 13 cups of flour, . Therefore,

13/10 cups of flour = 1 batch of cupcakes

13 cups of flour = x batch of cupcakes

Cross multiplying, it becomes

13/10 × x = 13 × 1

13x/10 = 13

13x = 13 × 10 = 130

x = 130/13 = 10
