Volume = are base*height
32 = x^2*h --> h = 32/x^2

surface area =  4x(32/x^2) + x^2 
SA = 128/x + x^2

SA' = -128/x^2 + 2x = 0
2x = 128/x^2
2x^3 = 128
x^3 = 64
x = 4

surface area minimized when length of base is 4 in.

hope this help

7t - 2 + 3t - 1 =  - 3 + 9t \\  \\ 10t - 3 =  - 3 + 9t \\ 10t - 9t =  - 3 + 3 \\ t = 0
Final answer is 0
