Answer:

<h2>x = 67.5 ft</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔNPM and ΔABM are similar. Therefore the sides are in proportion:

\dfrac{AM}{NM}=\dfrac{BM}{PM}

We have

AM=71.5\ ft-22\ ft=49.5\ ft\\NM=71.5\ ft\\BM=x\\PM=97.5\ ft

Substitute:

\dfrac{49.5}{71.5}=\dfrac{x}{97.5}       <em>cross multiply</em>

71.5x=(49.5)(97.5)

71.5x=4826.25           <em>divide both sides by 71.5</em>

x=67.5

You have been asked to design a rectangular box with a square base and an open top. The volume of the box must be 500cm3. Determ
babymother [125]

Answer:

x = 10 cm, y = 5 cm gives a minimum area of 300 cm^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

V= x^2y = 500

Surface area A = x^2 + 4xy.

From the first equation y = 500/x^2

So substituting for y in the equation for the surface area:

A = x^2 + 4x * 500/x^2

A = x^2 + 2000/x

Finding the derivative:

dA/dx = 2x - 2000x^-2

dA/dx = 2x - 2000/x^2

This = 0 for a minimum/maximum value of A, so

2x - 2000/x^2  = 0

2x^3 - 2000 = 0

x^3 = 2000/ 2 = 1000

x = 10

Second derivative is  2 + 4000/x^3

when x = 10  this is positive so x = 10 gives a minimum value of A.

So y =  500/x^2

= 500/100

= 5.
