Let
x------> the length side of the square base of the box
y-------> the height of the box
we know that
volume of the box=b²*h
b=x
h=y
volume=256 cm³
so
256=x²*y------>y=256/x²--------> equation 1
<span>The amount of material used is directly proportional to the surface area, so we will minimize the amount of material by minimizing the surface area.</span>
surface area of the cardboard=area of the base+perimeter of base*height
area of the base=x²
perimeter of the base=4*x
height=y
surface area=x²+4x*y-----> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
SA=x²+4x*[256/x²]-----> SA=x²+1024/x
step 1
find the first derivative of SA and equate to zero
2x+1024*(-1)/x²=0------> 2x=1024/x²----> x³=512--------> x=8 cm
y=256/x²------> y=256/8²-----> y=4 cm
the answer is
the length side of the square base of the box is 8 cm
the height of the box is 4 cm

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
True
<u>Answer:</u>
-10,1,19
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
<u></u>
x+y+z = 10 (Equation 1)
2y-x= 12 (Equation 2)
x-y+2z = 7 (Equation 3)
(Equation 2): -x = -2y+12
x = 2y-12 (Equation 4)
(Equation 1) - (Equation 3): 2y-z = 3
-z = -2y+3
z = 2y-3 (Equation 5)
Substitute (4) and (5) into (1)
x+y+z = 10
(2y-12)+y+(2y-3) = 10
5y-15 = 10
5y = 5
y=1
Substitute y=1 into (2)
2y-x= 12
2(1)-x= 12
2-x= 12
-x= 12-2
-x= 10
x= -10
Substitute y=1 and x=-10 into (1)
x+y+z = 10
-10+1+z = 10
z-9 = 10
z = 10+9
z = 19
Order: x = -10, y = 1, and z = 19
