A metal cylinder can with an open top and closed bottom is to have volume 4 cubic feet. Approximate the dimensions that require

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

$r\approx 1.084\ feet$

$h\approx 1.084\ feet$

$\displaystyle A=11.07\ ft^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Optimizing With Derivatives

The procedure to optimize a function (find its maximum or minimum) consists in :

Produce a function which depends on only one variable
Compute the first derivative and set it equal to 0
Find the values for the variable, called critical points
Compute the second derivative
Evaluate the second derivative in the critical points. If it results positive, the critical point is a minimum, if it's negative, the critical point is a maximum

We know a cylinder has a volume of 4 $ft^3$ . The volume of a cylinder is given by

$\displaystyle V=\pi r^2h$

Equating it to 4

$\displaystyle \pi r^2h=4$

Let's solve for h

$\displaystyle h=\frac{4}{\pi r^2}$

A cylinder with an open-top has only one circle as the shape of the lid and has a lateral area computed as a rectangle of height h and base equal to the length of a circle. Thus, the total area of the material to make the cylinder is

$\displaystyle A=\pi r^2+2\pi rh$

Replacing the formula of h

$\displaystyle A=\pi r^2+2\pi r \left (\frac{4}{\pi r^2}\right )$

Simplifying

$\displaystyle A=\pi r^2+\frac{8}{r}$

We have the function of the area in terms of one variable. Now we compute the first derivative and equal it to zero

$\displaystyle A'=2\pi r-\frac{8}{r^2}=0$

Rearranging

$\displaystyle 2\pi r=\frac{8}{r^2}$

Solving for r

$\displaystyle r^3=\frac{4}{\pi }$

$\displaystyle r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{4}{\pi }}\approx 1.084\ feet$

Computing h

$\displaystyle h=\frac{4}{\pi \ r^2}\approx 1.084\ feet$

We can see the height and the radius are of the same size. We check if the critical point is a maximum or a minimum by computing the second derivative

$\displaystyle A''=2\pi+\frac{16}{r^3}$

We can see it will be always positive regardless of the value of r (assumed positive too), so the critical point is a minimum.

The minimum area is

$\displaystyle A=\pi(1.084)^2+\frac{8}{1.084}$

$\boxed{ A=11.07\ ft^2}$

The science class is taking a field trip. There are a 20 students and a unknown number of adults. The bus holds 35 people at mos

AveGali [126]

It would be 15 because the 35 people at most minus the 20 students equals 15 so that would be the greatest number of adults allowed to be there.

AB is included between A. BC and AC B. C. < A and D. AB and BC

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the property of unique triangles (ASA), one side is included between the two angles.

By this property, if included side of the triangle ABC is AB then this side will be included between the two angles A and B.

Therefore, $\bar{AB}$ is included between ∠A and ∠B.

Option C. will be the answer.

Elli has some money

STALIN [3.7K]

15$ I believe, as we can disregard the two original books (they have been payed for) leaving her to buy 1 book and having seven dollars, however if she needs $8 more you simply need to add 8+7.
