Answer:

y=8x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

y ----> the total cost for renting the popcorn machine

x ----> the time in hours

we know that

The total cost of renting a popcorn machine for 6 hours is $48

so

using proportion

Find out the total cost for renting the popcorn machine for x hours

\frac{48}{6}=\frac{y}{x}\\\\y=(48x)/6\\\\y=8x

Is a linear direct variation

The constant of proportionality or slope is equal to

k=8\frac{\$}{h}

That means ----> the total cost is $8 per hour

A rectangular tank that is 2048 ft cubed with a square base and open top is to be constructed of sheet steel of a given thicknes
ira [324]

Answer:

The box should have base 16ft by 16ft and height 8ft Therefore,dimensions are 16 ft by 16 ft by 8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given the volume of the tank as, 2048 cubic feet.

Form minimum weight, the surface area must be minimum.

Let the height be h and the lengths be x

the volume will be: V=x²h then substitute the value of volume, we have

2048=hx²

hence

h=2048/x²

Since the amount of material used is directly proportional to the surface area, then the material needs to be minimized by minimizing the surface area.

The surface area of the box described is

A=x²+4xh

Then substitute h into the Area equation we have

A= x² + 4x(2048/x²)

A= x² + 8192/x

We want to minimize

A

dA/dx = -8192/x² + 2 x= 0 for max or min

when dA/dx=0

dA/dx= 2x-8192/x²=0

2x=8192/x²

Hence

2x³=8192

x³=4096

x=₃√(4096)

X=16ft

Then h=2048/x²

h=2048/16²

h=8ft

The box should have base 16ft by 16ft and height 8ft

Hence the dimensions are 16 ft by 16 ft by 8 ft

Which one is the function and which one isn’t please help im failing rn .
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

This relation is a function. Functions must have unique x-values for every y-value, this relation meets those requirements. Also, since this is a graph you can use the vertical line test. To pass the vertical line test you must be able to draw a vertical line on the graph and have it intersect with the function in no more than one place.
