Suppose you want to go to the ice skating rink and it costs $8 to rent ice skates and $3.75 per hour to skate, write an equation

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

c=8+3.75x, where:

c is the cost to go to the ice skating ring

x is the number of hours

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, the cost to go to the ice skating ring is equal to the cost to rent ice skates plus the result of multiplying the cost to skate per hour for the number of hours and the equation would be:

c=8+3.75x, where:

c is the cost to go to the ice skating ring

x is the number of hours

A rectangular box is to have a square base and a volume of 12 ft3. If the material for the base costs $0.17/ft2, the material fo

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

(a)Length =2 feet

(b)Width =2 feet

(c)Height=3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the dimensions of the box be x, y and z

The rectangular box has a square base.

Therefore, Volume of the box $V=x^2z$

Volume of the box $=12 ft^3\\$

$Therefore, x^2z=12\\z=\frac{12}{x^2}$

The material for the base costs $\$0.17/ft^2$ , the material for the sides costs $\$0.10/ft^2$ , and the material for the top costs $\$0.13/ft^2$ .

Area of the base $=x^2$

Cost of the Base $=\$0.17x^2$

Area of the sides $=4xz$

Cost of the sides= $=\$0.10(4xz)$

Area of the Top $=x^2$

Cost of the Base $=\$0.13x^2$

Total Cost, $C(x,z) =0.17x^2+0.13x^2+0.10(4xz)$

Substituting $z=\frac{12}{x^2}$

$C(x) =0.17x^2+0.13x^2+0.10(4x)(\frac{12}{x^2})\\C(x)=0.3x^2+\frac{4.8}{x} \\C(x)=\dfrac{0.3x^3+4.8}{x}$

To minimize C(x), we solve for the derivative and obtain its critical point

$C'(x)=\dfrac{0.6x^3-4.8}{x^2}\\Setting \:C'(x)=0\\0.6x^3-4.8=0\\0.6x^3=4.8\\x^3=4.8\div 0.6\\x^3=8\\x=\sqrt[3]{8}=2$

Recall: $z=\frac{12}{x^2}=\frac{12}{2^2}=3\\$

Therefore, the dimensions that minimizes the cost of the box are:

(a)Length =2 feet

(b)Width =2 feet

(c)Height=3 feet
