This is a proportion, so use cross multiplication.

12      7                12x = 7 x 27
---- = ----               12x = 189
27      x                     x = $15.75

Your answer is $15.75.

A rectangular box with a volume of 272ft^3 is to be constructed with a square base and top. The cost per square foot for the bot
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

The dimensions of the box is 3 ft by 3 ft by 30.22 ft.

The length of one side of the base of the given box  is 3 ft.

The height of the box is 30.22 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, a rectangular box with volume of 272 cubic ft.

Assume height of the box be h and the length of one side of the square base of the box is x.

Area of the base is = (x\times x)

                               =x^2

The volume of the box  is = area of the base × height

                                           =x^2h

Therefore,

x^2h=272

\Rightarrow h=\frac{272}{x^2}

The cost per square foot for bottom is 20 cent.

The cost to construct of the bottom of the box is

=area of the bottom ×20

=20x^2 cents

The cost per square foot for top is 10 cent.

The cost to construct of the top of the box is

=area of the top ×10

=10x^2 cents

The cost per square foot for side is 1.5 cent.

The cost to construct of the sides of the box is

=area of the side ×1.5

=4xh\times 1.5 cents

=6xh cents

Total cost = (20x^2+10x^2+6xh)

                =30x^2+6xh

Let

C=30x^2+6xh

Putting the value of h

C=30x^2+6x\times \frac{272}{x^2}

\Rightarrow C=30x^2+\frac{1632}{x}

Differentiating with respect to x

C'=60x-\frac{1632}{x^2}

Again differentiating with respect to x

C''=60+\frac{3264}{x^3}

Now set C'=0

60x-\frac{1632}{x^2}=0

\Rightarrow 60x=\frac{1632}{x^2}

\Rightarrow x^3=\frac{1632}{60}

\Rightarrow x\approx 3

Now C''|_{x=3}=60+\frac{3264}{3^3}>0

Since at x=3 , C''>0. So at x=3, C has a minimum value.

The length of one side of the base of the box is 3 ft.

The height of the box is =\frac{272}{3^2}

                                          =30.22 ft.

The dimensions of the box is 3 ft by 3 ft by 30.22 ft.

What is the area of the trapezoid shown below?​
Olin [163]

Answer:

78 sqr units

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to help find the base opposite the two.

The base of the second parallel line is sqrt(  (15^2) - (12^2)  ) = sqrt(81) = 9

The second base = 9 + 2 = 11

Area = (b1 + b2)*h/2

h = 12

b1 = 2

b2 = 11

h = 12

Area = (11 + 2)*12/2

Area = 13 * 12/2

Area = 78 square units
