Answer:

75 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The aquarium is designed to hold 62.5cubic feet

Since the aquarium has a square base, assume the aquaruim is a square prism

Let X be the lenght

Let y be the height

x^2.y = 62.5

y = 62.5x^2

The area of each side of the aquarium is xy. Since there are four sides, the total area of the side= 4xy

The area of the bottom of the aquarium = x^2

Total surface area = 4xy + x^2

Put y = 62.5/x^2 into the total surface area equation

A = 4x(62.5/x^2) + x^2

A= 250/x + x^2

Differentiate A with respect to x

dA/dx = -250(x^-2) + 2x

dA/dx = 0

0 = 2x - 250x^-2

2x = 250x^-2

2x =250/ x^2

2x^3 = 250

x^3 = 250/2

x^3 = 125

x = cbrt (125)

x = 5

Put x= 5 into A = x^2 + 250x^-1

A= 5^2 + 250(5^-1)

A= 25 + 250/5

A = 25 + 50

A = 75 square feet

Will give brainliest to correct answer.

So, its time to do some MATH!

ok so i would first approach this problem by placing the prices in order from least to greatest......um it would look something like this...(cue the math skills in my brain)

1.29,1.59,1.99,2..09, and last but most definitely not least (get it?) 2.19

so basically the median is like the MIDDLE number of your data (shout out to my fellow middle children!)

and so you may be asking "how does one figure this out?" and i will tell you that it is quite simple...

so what you got to do is cross out a number from the left and a number from the right, and you will be left with one number, which is your middle number (or in fancy maths language -the median- that was supposed to be said with a British accent, so just bear with me there :-))

and so your final answer should be....(drumroll please)

$1.99 is your median 

(ta- da you are supermathematicalgeniuslevel smart)

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer: C. x = 4 and x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Zeros of a function would be the value of x when f(x) is 0.

Based on the given graph, the parabola has 2 locations where the y-value is 0 and the graph hits the x-axis.

The graph hits the x-axis at 4 and at 6.
