Answer:
2.29 ft of side length and 1.14 height
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Volume V = x2h, where x is side of square base and h is hite.
Then surface area S = x2 + 4xh because box is open.
b) From V = x2h = 6 we have h = 6/x2.
Substitude in formula for surface area: S = x2 + 4x·6/x2, S = x2 + 24/x.
We get S as function of one variable x. To get minimum we have to find derivative S' = 2x - 24/x2 = 0, from here 2x3 - 24 = 0, x3 = 12, x = (12)1/3 ≅ 2.29 ft.
Then h = 6/(12)2/3 = (12)1/3/2 ≅ 1.14 ft.
To prove that we have minimum let get second derivative: S'' = 2 + 48/x3, S''(121/3) = 2 + 48/12 = 6 > 0.
And because by second derivative test we have minimum: Smin = (12)2/3 + 4(12)1/3(12)1/3/2 = 3(12)2/3 ≅ 15.72 ft2
Answer: A. The first one
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a) y = 1/2x + 5/2
y = 2/5x + 29/5
b) hair will be 19 inches for both at 33 months
Step-by-step explanation:
a) rate of growth of friend's hair: (3, 4) (8, 6.5)
(6.5 - 4) ÷ (8 - 3) = 2.5/5 or 1/2
find the y-intercept of equation for growth of friend's hair:
y = mx + b
4 = 1/2(3) + b
4 = 3/2 + b
8/2 - 3/2 = b
5/2 = b
equation for growth of friend's hair:
y = 1/2x + 5/2
rate of growth of cousin's hair: (3, 7) (8, 9)
(9 - 7) ÷ (8 - 3) = 2/5
find the y-intercept of equation for growth of cousin's hair:
y = mx + b
9 = 2/5(8) + b
9 = 16/5 + b
45/5 - 16/5 = b
29/5 = b
equation for growth of cousin's hair:
y = 2/5x + 29/5
b) y = 1/2x + 5/2
y = 2/5x + 29/5
1/2x + 5/2 = 2/5x + 29/5
5/10x + 25/10 = 4/10x + 58/10
1/10x = 33/10
10x = 3300
x = 33
