Finger [1]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

1000

Step-by-step explanation:

After 8 hours, it becomes 1000, and because it doesn’t make it to 16 hours it stays at 1000.

A rectangle box with a square base and no top needs to be made using 300ft^2 of material. Find the dimensions of the box with th
Yuri [45]

The dimensions of the box are 10 ft and 5 ft

The maximum volume is 500 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle box with

  • A square base and no top
  • It needs to be made using 300 ft² of material
  • It has greatest volume

Surface area of a box without top (SA) = perimeter of base × height + area of the base

Volume of a box (V) = base area × height

Assume that the length of the side of the square base is x and the height of the box is y

∵ It needs to be made using 300 ft² of material

∴ The surface area of the box is 300 ft²

∵ Its base is a square of side length x ft

∴ Perimeter of the base = 4 × x = 4 x

∴ Area of the base = x²

∵ The height of the box = y ft

∵ SA = perimeter of base × height + area of the base

∵ SA = (4x)(y) + x²

∴ SA = 4xy + x²

∵ SA of the box = 300 ft²

- Equate the two expressions of SA

∴ 4xy + x² = 300

Now let us find y in terms of x

- Subtract x² from both sides

∴ 4xy = 300 - x²

- Divide each term by 4x to find y

∴ y=\frac{75}{x}-\frac{1}{4}x

∵ V = area of the base × height

∴ V = x² × y = x²y

- Substitute y by the equation of it above

∴ V=x^{2}(\frac{75}{x}-\frac{1}{4}x)

∴ V=75x-\frac{1}{4}x^{3}

∵ The volume of the box is greatest

- That means differentiate V and equate it by 0

∵ \frac{dV}{dx}=75-\frac{3}{4}x^{2}

∵ \frac{dV}{dx}=0 ⇒ greatest volume

∴ 75-\frac{3}{4}x^{2}=0

- Subtract 75 from both sides

∴ -\frac{3}{4}x^{2}=-75

- Divide both sides by -\frac{3}{4}

∴ x² = 100

- Take √ for both sides

∴ x = 10

Substitute the value of x in the equation of y

∵ y=\frac{75}{10}-\frac{1}{4}(10)

∴ y = 5

The dimensions of the box are 10 ft and 5 ft

∵ V=75x-\frac{1}{4}x^{3}

∵ x = 10

∴ V=75(10)-\frac{1}{4}(10)^{3}

∴ V=750-\frac{1}{4}(1000)

∴ V = 750 - 250

∴ V = 500 ft³

The maximum volume is 500 ft³

When a figure is translated, what is true, compared to the preimage of the figure
Charra [1.4K]
When you translate something in geometry, you're simply moving it around. You don't distort it in any way. If you translate a segment, it remains a segment, and its length doesn't change. Similarly, if you translate an angle, the measure of the angle doesn't change.

Suppose a triangle has sides 3, 4, and 6. Which of the following must be true? A: The triangle in question is not a right triang
Talja [164]

Answer:

A: The triangle in question is not a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangle is a right triangle, then the Pythagorean theorem would hold

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

3^2 + 4^2 = 6^2

9+16 = 36

25 = 36

This is not true so this is not a right triangle
