Answer:

Length = 47 in

Radius = 47/π in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'h' be the length of the package, and 'r' be the radius of the cross section.

The length and girth combined are:

L+G=141=h+2\pi r\\h=141-2\pi r

The volume of the cylindrical package is:

V=A_b*h\\V=\pi r^2*h

Rewriting the volume as a function of 'r':

V=\pi r^2*h\\V=\pi r^2*(141-2\pi r)\\V=141\pi r^2-2\pi^2 r^3

The value of 'r' for which the derivate of the volume function is zero yields the maximum volume:

V=141\pi r^2-2\pi^2 r^3\\\frac{dV}{dr}=282\pi r-6\pi^2r^2=0\\ 6\pi r=282\\r=\frac{47}{\pi} \ in

The length is:

h=141-2\pi r=141-2\pi*\frac{47}{\pi}\\h=47\ in

The dimensions that yield the maximum volume are:

Length = 47 in

Radius = 47/π in

The angle of depression from the hot-air
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

3497.47 feet

I think it's the answer because when you look where I've drawn...that's where the angle of depression is and 6600 is the hypotenuse, so you use the sine method where you have opposite over hypotenuse

\sin(32 = opposite \6600)

and you'll get your answer as 3497.47
