We have that
<span>points A (-5, 6) and B (7, -1)

Part A)
find the distance
d=</span>√[(y2-y1)²+(x2-x1)²]-------> d=√[(-1-6)²+(7+5)²]----> d=√(49+144)
d=√193 units

Part B)
find the midpoint
ABx=(x1+x2)/2-----> (-5+7)/2-----> ABx=1
ABy=(y1+y2)/2-----> (-1+6)/2-----> ABy=2.5

the midpoint is (1,2.5)

Part C)
find the slope
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)-----> m=(-1-6)/(7+5)--------> m=-7/12

the slope m=-7/12

Suppose we want to build a rectangular storage container with open top whose volume is $$12 cubic meters. Assume that the cost o

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:265.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Volume of box $=12 m^3$

height is 3 times the width

let height, length and breadth be H, L & B

$H=3\times B$

$V=12=L\times B\times H$

4=B^2\times L[/tex]

$L=\frac{4}{B^2}$

Cost of side walls $ $8/m^2$

Cost of base $ $12/m^2$

Cost of side walls $=(2LH+2BH)\cdot 8$

Cost of base $=12LB$

Total cost $C=16LH+16BH+12LB$

$C=48LB+48B^2+12LB$

$C=\frac{192}{B}+48B^2+\frac{48}{B}$

differentiate C w.r.t B to get minimum cost

$\frac{\mathrm{d} C}{\mathrm{d} B}=-\frac{192}{B^2}+2\times 48 B-\frac{48}{B^2}$

$B^3=\frac{240}{2\times 48}$

$B=1.35 m$

$H=3\times 1.35=4.07 m$

L=2.19 m

C=$ 265.25
