The maximum volume of the box is 40√(10/27) cu in.
Here we see that volume is to be maximized
The surface area of the box is 40 sq in
Since the top lid is open, the surface area will be
lb + 2lh + 2bh = 40
Now, the length is equal to the breadth.
Let them be x in
Hence,
x² + 2xh + 2xh = 40
or, 4xh = 40 - x²
or, h = 10/x - x/4
Let f(x) = volume of the box
= lbh
Hence,
f(x) = x²(10/x - x/4)
= 10x - x³/4
differentiating with respect to x and equating it to 0 gives us
f'(x) = 10 - 3x²/4 = 0
or, 3x²/4 = 10
or, x² = 40/3
Hence x will be equal to 2√(10/3)
Now to check whether this value of x will give us the max volume, we will find
f"(2√(10/3))
f"(x) = -3x/2
hence,
f"(2√(10/3)) = -3√(10/3)
Since the above value is negative, volume is maximum for x = 2√(10/3)
Hence volume
= 10 X 2√(10/3) - [2√(10/3)]³/4
= 2√(10/3) [10 - 10/3]
= 2√(10/3) X 20/3
= 40√(10/27) cu in

Answer:
6/5
Step-by-step explanation:
8/15 - (-2/3)
8/15 + 2/3
24 + 30/45
54/45 = 6/5
Thus, the difference between 8/15 and -2/3 is 6/5
Answer:
14 scarves
Step-by-step explanation:
Change the divisor 3.75 to a whole number by moving the decimal point 2 places to the right. Then move the decimal point in the dividend the same, 2 places to the right.
We then have the equations:
5250 ÷ 375 = 14
and therefore:
52.5 ÷ 3.75 = 14
Both calculated to 0 decimal places.
