<h2>Dimension of box is 2 m x 2 m x 1.33 m</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be base side and h be the height.

Volume of box, V = a²h

The sides of the box will cost $3 per m² and the base will cost $4 per m². Cost for making is $48.

That is

                 4a² + 3 x 4 x a x h = 48

                 4a² + 12 a x h = 48

                 a² + 3 ah = 12  

                 h=\frac{12-a^2}{3a}

So volume is

                    V=a^2\times \frac{12-a^2}{3a}=4a-\frac{a^3}{3}

At maximum volume we have derivative is zero,

                    dV=4da-3\times \frac{a^2}{3}da\\\\0=4-a^2\\\\a=\pm 2

Negative side is not possible, hence side of square base is 2m.

Substituting in  a² + 3 ah = 12  

                           2² + 3 x  2 x h = 12  

                             h = 1.33 m

Dimension of box is 2 m x 2 m x 1.33 m

okay 1 student = 1/20 chance of picking yellow

1/20 (30/30) = 30/600 chance of picking yellow out of 30 studnets

30/600 = 0.05 = 5% chance of choosing yellow.

I each studnet picks 1 yellow marker. Is that all the options?

Margaret [11]

Answer:

  • $122.04
  • 36.94%

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The amount of concern is ...

  (total interest)/(number of payments) = interest/payment

  $14,644.95/120 ≈ $122.04 . . . . amount of interest per payment

__

b) The ratio of concern is ...

  (total interest)/(total payments) × 100% = 14,644.95/39,644.95 × 100%

  ≈ 36.94% . . . . percent of total payments that is interest
