A rectangular box is to have a square base and a volume of 60 ft3. the material for the base costs 33¢/ft2, the material for the

sides costs 10¢/ft2, and the material for the top costs 20¢/ft2. letting x denote the length of one side of the base, find a function in the variable x giving the cost (in dollars) of constructing the box.

The base and top have the same area, so we can add their costs.
.. cost of base + cost of top = (0.33 +0.20)*x^2 . . . . . . . . x measured in feet

The height of the box wil be (60/x^2), and the total length of all sides is the perimeter of the base, 4x. Then the cost of the sides is
.. cost of sides = (0.10)*(60/x^2)*(4x) = 24/x

The total cost of material for the box is
.. total cost = cost of base + cost of top + cost of sides
.. total cost = 0.53x^2 +24/x . . . . . . . . . . dollar cost for x in feet

What is -16+4 (2g-18)=0
IgorLugansk [536]

-16 + 4(2g - 18) = 0

Distribute 4 inside the parentheses.

-16 + (8g - 72) = 0

Combine like terms (-16 - 72).

-88 + 8g = 0

Add 88 to both sides.

8g = 88

Divide both sides by 8.

\boxed {g=11}

Use order of operations to make this true 7 11 4 2 = 10
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

7 + 11 - 4 \times 2 = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Using order of operations, the first thing to be calculated would be 4 \times 2.

That would turn our equation into this:

7 + 11 - 8 = 10

You can then calculate left-to-right as usual to get the answer 10.
