A rectangular storage container with an open top is to have a volume of 10 m3. The length of this base is twice the width. Mater

ial for the base costs $15 per square meter. Material for the sides costs $9 per square meter. Find the cost of materials for the cheapest such container. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)

L = 2 W
B = L x W = 2 W²
Side Area = 2 W H + 2 L H = 2 H ( W + L ) = 6 H W
V = 2 W² H = 10
H = 5 / W²
Cost = 15 * 2 W² + 9 * 5/W
= 30 W² + 270/ W 
C ` = 60 W - 270 / W² 
= ( 60 W² - 270 ) / W² = 0
60 W² = 270
W ² = 270 : 60
W² = 4.5
W = √ 4.5 = 2.12
Cost (min) = 15 * 2 * 4.5 + 30 / 2.12 = 135 + 14.15 = $149.15
Answer: The cost of materials for the cheapest such container is $149.15.

<h2>Answer</h2>

After the dilation \frac{5}{3} around the center of dilation (2, -2), our triangle will have coordinates:

R'=(2,3)

S'=(2,-2)

T'=(-3,-2)

<h2>Explanation</h2>

First, we are going to translate the center of dilation to the origin. Since the center of dilation is (2, -2) we need to move two units to the left (-2) and two units up (2) to get to the origin. Therefore, our first partial rule will be:

(x,y)→(x-2, y+2)

Next, we are going to perform our dilation, so we are going to multiply our resulting point by the dilation factor \frac{5}{3}. Therefore our second partial rule will be:

(x,y)→\frac{5}{3} (x-2,y+2)

(x,y)→(\frac{5}{3} x-\frac{10}{3} ,\frac{5}{3} y+\frac{10}{3} )

Now, the only thing left to create our actual rule is going back from the origin to the original center of dilation, so we need to move two units to the right (2) and two units down (-2)

(x,y)→(\frac{5}{3} x-\frac{10}{3}+2,\frac{5}{3} y+\frac{10}{3}-2)

(x,y)→(\frac{5}{3} x-\frac{4}{3} ,\frac{5}{3}y+ \frac{4}{3})

Now that we have our rule, we just need to apply it to each point of our triangle to perform the required dilation:

R=(2,1)

R'=(\frac{5}{3} x-\frac{4}{3} ,\frac{5}{3}y+ \frac{4}{3})

R'=(\frac{5}{3} (2)-\frac{4}{3} ,\frac{5}{3}(1)+ \frac{4}{3})

R'=(\frac{10}{3} -\frac{4}{3} ,\frac{5}{3}+ \frac{4}{3})

R'=(2,3)

S=(2,-2)

S'=(\frac{5}{3} (2)-\frac{4}{3} ,\frac{5}{3}(-2)+ \frac{4}{3})

S'=(\frac{10}{3} -\frac{4}{3} ,-\frac{10}{3}+ \frac{4}{3})

S'=(2,-2)

T=(-1,-2)

T'=(\frac{5}{3} (-1)-\frac{4}{3} ,\frac{5}{3}(-2)+ \frac{4}{3})

T'=(-\frac{5}{3} -\frac{4}{3} ,-\frac{10}{3}+ \frac{4}{3})

T'=(-3,-2)

Now we can finally draw our triangle:

Based o the sample results what percent of the opulation prefers reading a hard copy i fht e digital copy is 4, the hard copy is
Lisa [10]

Based on the sample results of the population the percentage of population that  prefers reading a hard copy i fht e digital copy is 4, the hard copy is 21 and n equas 25 is 84%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question  we know that .

<u>Total number of population, n = 25</u>

Number of people who prefer to read a digital copy = 4

Number of people who prefer to read a hard copy = 21

As per the question we need to  find out the percentage  of population who prefer to read hard copy.

So we use the formula

<u>Percent of population preferring hard copy = Hard copy/Total*100</u>

<u></u>

Percent of population that prefers  hard copy = 21/25*100

Percent of population that prefers hard copy = 0.84 × 100 = 84%

<u>So , the percent of population who prefers to read a hard copy are about 84%.</u>
