I would say do 70 percent of the 700 people then do 25 percent then 5 percent
Answer:
- Base Length of 84cm
- Height of 42 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a box with a square base and an open top which must have a volume of 296352 cubic centimetre. We want to minimize the amount of material used.
Step 1:
Let the side length of the base =x
Let the height of the box =h
Since the box has a square base
Volume, 

Surface Area of the box = Base Area + Area of 4 sides

Step 2: Find the derivative of A(x)

Step 3: Set A'(x)=0 and solve for x
![A'(x)=\dfrac{2x^3-1185408}{x^2}=0\\2x^3-1185408=0\\2x^3=1185408\\$Divide both sides by 2\\x^3=592704\\$Take the cube root of both sides\\x=\sqrt[3]{592704}\\x=84](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%27%28x%29%3D%5Cdfrac%7B2x%5E3-1185408%7D%7Bx%5E2%7D%3D0%5C%5C2x%5E3-1185408%3D0%5C%5C2x%5E3%3D1185408%5C%5C%24Divide%20both%20sides%20by%202%5C%5Cx%5E3%3D592704%5C%5C%24Take%20the%20cube%20root%20of%20both%20sides%5C%5Cx%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B592704%7D%5C%5Cx%3D84)
Step 4: Verify that x=84 is a minimum value
We use the second derivative test

Since the second derivative is positive at x=84, then it is a minimum point.
Recall:

Therefore, the dimensions that minimizes the box surface area are:
- Base Length of 84cm
- Height of 42 cm.
26.90 is the answer. hope this helps!
Consecutive numbers differ by one. So, if
is the first, the three numbers are

The sum of the first and third integer is

Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:

First, you can factor out a 6:

Next, you can factor the quadratic:

Since the only value of x that could set this equation equal to 0 is -3, that is the answer. Hope this helps!
