An open-top box with a square base is to have a volume of 4 cubic feet. Find the dimensions of the box (in ft) that can be made

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The dimension of box= $2ft\times 2ft\times 1ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Volume of box=4 cubic feet

Let x be the side of square base and h be the height of box

Volume of box= $lbh=x^2h$

$4=x^2h$

$h=\frac{4}{x^2}$

Now, surface area of box,A= $x^2+4xh$

$A=x^2+4x(\frac{4}{x^2})=x^2+\frac{16}{x}$

$\frac{dA}{dx}=2x-\frac{16}{x^2}$

$\frac{dA}{dx}=0$

$2x-\frac{16}{x^2}=0$

$2x=\frac{16}{x^2}$

$x^3=8$

$x=2$

$\frac{d^2A}{dx^2}=2+\frac{32}{x^3}$

Substitute x=2

$\frac{d^2A}{dx^2}=2+\frac{32}{2^3}=2+4=6>0$

Hence, the area of box is minimum at x=2

Therefore, side of square base,x=2 ft

Height of box,h= $\frac{4}{2^2}=1 ft$

Hence, the dimension of box= $2ft\times 2ft\times 1ft$

Please help with this question, thank you

Semmy [17]

Remark
The key step is just to subtract 5 from both sides. The pointed of the inequality still points away from the variable and towards the number. As long as that remains true, the correct answer can be found.

Solution
2.7 ≤ b + 5 Subtract 5 from both sides.
2.7 - 5 ≤ b
- 2.3 ≤ b Write with the variable on the left.
b ≥ - 2.3 <<<< answer
