Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Side of square base=x
Height of rectangular box=y
Area of square base=Area of top=
Area of one side face=
Cost of bottom=$9 per square ft
Cost of top=$5 square ft
Cost of sides=$4 per square ft
Total cost=$204
Volume of rectangular box=
Total cost=



Substitute the values of y

Differentiate w.r.t x







It takes positive because side length cannot be negative.
Again differentiate w.r. t x

Substitute the value

Hence, the volume of box is maximum at x=2.2 ft
Substitute the value of x

Greatest volume of box=
Plant's height after 31 months:82 centimeters
<h3>How to find the height of the plant</h3>
The equation that can be used to find the height of the plant is given as
h = 52 centimeters + 1m
We have that the plant grows at 1 centimeter every month hence we have 1m in the equation.
Then the number of periods is m, Now we are to find the height in this period of time
h = 52 + 1*31
= 51 + 31
= 82
Hence the height after 31 months is given as 82 centimeters.

15ft per sec would be the unit rate.
Since the total degree of a triangle is 180, subtract 44 from 180 = 136. Divide it by two, and you get 68. I believe this is correct but don't take my word for it. Good luck!
