If 1900 square centimeters of material are available to make a box with a square base and an open top, find the largest possible
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Volume = 7969 cubic centimeter

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of each side of the base of the box  be A and the height of the box be H.

Area of material required to make the box  is equal to  is A^2 + 4*A*H.

A^2 + 4*A*H = 1900

 Rearranging the above equation, we get -  

`H = \frac{(1900 - A^2)}{(4*A)}

Volume of box is equal to product of base area of box and the height of the box -  

V = A*A* H

Substituting the given area we get -

\frac{A^2*(1900 - A^2)}{4A} = \frac{(1900*A - A^3)}{4}

For maximum volume

\frac{dV}{dA} =0

\frac{ 1900}{4} - \frac{3*A^2}{4} = 0

A^2 = \frac{1900}{3}

Volume of the box

= \frac{\frac{1900}{3}*(1900 - \frac{1900}{3}) }{4 * \sqrt{\frac{1900}{3} } }

= 7969 cubic centimeter

Jack spent $40 on new shoes then he spent half of what he had left on clothes finally he gave five dollars to his brother now he
aleksandrvk [35]
This is a working backwards problem.  You know he has $35 at the end.  Before he gave his brother $5, he would have $40, which is half of what he had before he bought the clothes, so he would have had $80.  Before he spent the $40 on shoes, he would have had $120, so the answer is $120.

PLEASE HELP FAST!!!!!!!!
seropon [69]

Answer:

Option B. -j = -h/-k is not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

As from the given scenario both the negative signs will be cancelled out giving positive j : -h/-k = -j

First option has: -j = -h/k In this case also the negative sign from both sides would be cancelled out.

Second option has: -h/-k = -j In this case negative signs cannot be cancelled out.

Third option has: h/-k = -j , negative sign would be cancelled from both sides.

Fourth option has: h/k = j , no negative sign on either side.

i hope it will help you!

If the function f (x) has a domain of (a,b] and a range of [c,d), then what is the domain and range of g (x) = m × f (x) + n?
xz_007 [3.2K]
<h3>Answer: Choice A</h3>

Domain = (a,b]

Range = [mc + n,md + n)

==============================================

Explanation:

The domain stays the same because we still have to go through f(x) as our first hurdle in order to get g(x).

Think of it like having 2 doors. The first door is f(x) and the second is g(x). The fact g(x) is dependent on f(x) means that whatever input restrictions are on f, also apply on g as well. So going back to the "2 doors" example, we could have a problem like trying to move a piece of furniture through them and we'd have to be concerned about the f(x) door.

-------------------

The range will be different however. The smallest value in the range of f(x) is y = c as it is the left endpoint. So the smallest f(x) can be is c. This means the smallest g(x) can be is...

g(x) = m*f(x) + n

g(x) = m*c + n

All we're doing is replacing f with c.

So that means mc+n is the starting point of the range for g(x).

The ending point of the range is md+n for similar reasons. Instead of 'c', we're dealing with 'd' this time. The curved parenthesis says we don't actually include this value in the range. A square bracket means include that value.
