<h3>The dimensions of the given rectangular box are:</h3><h3>L  =   15.874 cm  , B  =  15.874 cm   , H = 7.8937 cm</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the dimension of the square base = S x S

Let us assume the height of the rectangular base = H

So, the total area of the open rectangular box  

= Area of the base +  4 x ( Area of the adjacent faces)

=  S x S  +  4 ( S x H)   = S² +  4 SH   ..... (1)

Also, Area of the box  = S x S x H  =  S²H

⇒ S²H = 2000

\implies H = \frac{2000}{S^2}

Substituting the value of H in (1), we get:

A = S^2 + 4 SH =  S^2 + 4 S(\frac{2000}{S^2}) =  S^2 + (\frac{8000}{S})\\\implies A  =  S^2 + (\frac{8000}{S})

Now, to minimize the area put :

(\frac{dA}{dS} ) = 0 \implies 2S  - \frac{8000}{S^2}  = 0\\\implies S^3 = 4000\\\implies S  = 15.874 \approx 16 cm

Putting the value of S  = 15.874 cm in the value of H , we get:

\implies H = \frac{2000}{S^2}  =  \frac{2000}{(15.874)^2} = 7.8937 cm

Hence, the dimensions of the given rectangular box are:

L  =   15.874 cm

B  = 15.874 cm

H = 7.8937 cm

The solution of the following equation as 0.15 ( 10t - 9= 0.75 (4t - 3)​
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf t = 0.6}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf 0.15(10t-9) = 0.75(4t-3)\\\\Resolving \ Parenthesis\\\\1.5t-1.35 = 3t - 2.25\\\\Combining \ like \ terms\\\\-1.35 + 2.25 = 3t-1.5t\\\\0.9 = 1.5t\\\\Dividing \ both \ sides \ by \ 1.5\\\\0.9/1.5 = t\\\\0.6 = t\\\\OR\\\\\bold{t = 0.6}

Hope this helped!
