Lake Lopez had a water depth at its dam of 515 inches at the beginning of the year. During the rainy season, the water depth inc

reased by 82 inches. Evaporation during a hot summer decreased the depth by 119 inches. What was the water depth at the end of the summer?

Beginning of the year= 515 inches

-

<u>Rain increases the water depth:</u>

After rainy season = 515 + 82 = 597 inches

-

<u>Evaporation decreases the water depth:</u>

After Hot Summer = 597 - 119 = 478 inches

-

Answer: 478 inches

This question states that Lake Lopez began at a depth of 515 inches, then increased by 82 inches, then decreased by 119 inches. To model this, we will use addition for the increase and subtraction for the decrease; this will signify a positive/negative change in the depth. This can be modeled by the expression below:

515 + 82 - 119

597 - 119

478

Therefore, the water depth at the end of the summer was 478 inches.

Hope this helps!

If 1200 cm2 of material is available to make a box with a square base and an open top, find the largest possible volume of the b
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

The largest possible volume V is ;

V = l^2 × h

V = 20^2 × 10 = 4000cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Volume of a box = length × breadth × height= l×b×h

In this case the box have a square base. i.e l=b

Volume V = l^2 × h

The surface area of a square box

S = 2(lb+lh+bh)

S = 2(l^2 + lh + lh) since l=b

S = 2(l^2 + 2lh)

Given that the box is open top.

S = l^2 + 4lh

And Surface Area of the box is 1200cm^2

1200 = l^2 + 4lh ....1

Making h the subject of formula

h = (1200 - l^2)/4l .....2

Volume is given as

V = l^2 × h

V = l^2 ×(1200 - l^2)/4l

V = (1200l - l^3)/4

the maximum point is at dV/dl = 0

dV/dl = (1200 - 3l^2)/4

dV/dl = (1200 - 3l^2)/4 = 0

3l^2= 1200

l^2 = 1200/3 = 400

l = √400

I = 20cm

Since,

h = (1200 - l^2)/4l

h = (1200 - 20^2)/4×20

h = (800)/80

h = 10cm

The largest possible volume V is ;

V = l^2 × h

V = 20^2 × 10 = 4000cm^3
