Answer:
Side of 22 and height of 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s be the side of the square base and h be the height of the tank. Since the tank volume is restricted to 5324 ft cubed we have the following equation:
As the thickness is already defined, we can minimize the weight by minimizing the surface area of the tank
Base area with open top
Side area 4sh
Total surface area
We can substitute
To find the minimum of this function, we can take the first derivative, and set it to 0
Answer:
2.4×10^6
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the numbers where the variables are and do the arithmetic. You can enter the numbers in scientific notation into your (scientific) calculator and have it show you the result in the same format.
r = (3.8×10^5)^2/(5.9×10^4) . . . . . denominator parentheses are required
Please note that in the above expression, parentheses are required around the denominator number. This is because it is a product of two numbers. In your pocket calculator or spreadsheet, you can enter that value as a single number (not a product). Parentheses are not required when you can do that.
r = (3.8²/5.9)×10^(5·2-4) ≈ 2.4×10^6
___
The "exact" value is a repeating decimal with a long repeat. We have rounded to 2 significant digits here because the input numbers have that number of significant digits.
