First you express them according to the numbers which will be 42:38 then you find a common factor and divide it by 2 which will give you 21:19 (B) and that's the simplest form

B. because when you write the ratio as 42:38, you can simplify it by dividing by 2. After that, you can't divide 21:19 evenly, so that is the simplest form.

A lidless box is to be made using 2m^2 of cardboard find the dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard
Jlenok [28]
1.8, Problem 37: A lidless cardboard box is to be made with a volume of 4 m3 . Find the dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard. Solution: If the dimensions of our box are x, y, and z, then we’re seeking to minimize A(x, y, z) = xy + 2xz + 2yz subject to the constraint that xyz = 4. Our first step is to make the first function a function of just 2 variables. From xyz = 4, we see z = 4/xy, and if we substitute this into A(x, y, z), we obtain a new function A(x, y) = xy + 8/y + 8/x. Since we’re optimizing something, we want to calculate the critical points, which occur when Ax = Ay = 0 or either Ax or Ay is undefined. If Ax or Ay is undefined, then x = 0 or y = 0, which means xyz = 4 can’t hold. So, we calculate when Ax = 0 = Ay. Ax = y − 8/x2 = 0 and Ay = x − 8/y2 = 0. From these, we obtain x 2y = 8 = xy2 . This forces x = y = 2, which forces z = 1. Calculating second derivatives and applying the second derivative test, we see that (x, y) = (2, 2) is a local minimum for A(x, y). To show it’s an absolute minimum, first notice that A(x, y) is defined for all choices of x and y that are positive (if x and y are arbitrarily large, you can still make z REALLY small so that xyz = 4 still). Therefore, the domain is NOT a closed and bounded region (it’s neither closed nor bounded), so you can’t apply the Extreme Value Theorem. However, you can salvage something: observe what happens to A(x, y) as x → 0, as y → 0, as x → ∞, and y → ∞. In each of these cases, at least one of the variables must go to ∞, meaning that A(x, y) goes to ∞. Thus, moving away from (2, 2) forces A(x, y) to increase, and so (2, 2) is an absolute minimum for A(x, y).

Write the exact value of, or estimate, the side length of a square with an area of 100 square units.
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

l =10 units, 9.7 units, 5.5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = length x breadth

Area of a square = l^2

100= l^2

√100 =√l^2

l=10 units

95=l^2

√95 = √l^2

l= 9.7 units

30=l^2

√30=√l^2

l= 5.5 units
