the y- intercept would be 0
Answer:
-1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
i don't know how I can explain this answer lol sorry friend
1 gallon = 128 fluid ounces
2.5 gallons = 2.5 x 128 = 320 fluid ounces
Steve's boat uses 50 fluid ounce of fuel to 1 fluid ounce of oil, thus
for 320 fluid ounce of fuel it will use 320/50 = 6.4 fluid ounce of oil.
Hi there,
If what you are trying to find is the volume, then:
Here's the equation:
4×6×2 = 48 --- volume of the smaller rectangular box
12×14×2 = 336 --- volume of the bigger box
48 + 336 = 384 --- the total volume of the figure
Hope this helped :P
Continuing from the setup in the question linked above (and using the same symbols/variables), we have




The next part of the question asks to maximize this result - our target function which we'll call

- subject to

.
We can see that

is quadratic in

, so let's complete the square.

Since

are non-negative, it stands to reason that the total product will be maximized if

vanishes because

is a parabola with its vertex (a maximum) at (5, 25). Setting

, it's clear that the maximum of

will then be attained when

are largest, so the largest flux will be attained at

, which gives a flux of 10,800.
