Answer:

The largest possible volume of the box is 500,000 cm³    

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the a side of the square base = x

let the height of the box, = h

volume of the box, v = hx²

Surface area of the box, A = 4hx + x²

                                         30000 = 4hx + x²

make h the subject of the formula;

     4hx + x^2 = 30000\\\\4hx  = 30000 -x^2\\\\h = \frac{30000 -x^2}{4x}

Volume of the box, V = hx²

V = h*x^2 = (\frac{30000-x^2}{4x} )x^2\\\\V = \frac{30000x^2 -x^4}{4x} \\\\V = \frac{30000x^2}{4x} - \frac{x^4}{4x} \\\\V = 7500x- \frac{x^3}{4}

At maximum value of V, dv/dx = 0

\frac{dv}{dx} = 7500 - \frac{3}{4} x^2\\\\0 = 7500 - \frac{3}{4} x^2\\\\\frac{3}{4} x^2 = 7500\\\\x^2 = 10000\\\\x = \sqrt{10000} \\\\x = 100

Substitute in the value of x to determine the maximum volume, V;

V = 7500x - \frac{x^3}{4} \\\\V = 7500(100) - \frac{1}{4} (100)^3\\\\V = 750000- 250000\\\\V = 500,000 \ cm^3

Therefore, the largest possible volume of the box is 500,000 cm³

$550.00 is what percent of $1580.00 ?
vodka [1.7K]

The answer is 35%. You just take 550.00/1580.00=0.34810127 then you turn that into percent (round up the 4 to a 5 since the next number is 8). And you get 35%
