124 square units
you just have to count the top, bottom, and a side and times by 2
{y: y= -7, -2, 3, 8} is the range of the function.
Answer: y=0,5x²-x-1,5.
Step-by-step explanation:

We summarize (1) and (3):

Substitute b=-1 into (2):

From (5) subtract (4):

Substitute a=0,5 into (4):

Hense:
y=0,5x²-x-1,5.
Answer:
The dimensions that minimize the surface are:
Wide: 1.65 yd
Long: 3.30 yd
Height: 2.20 yd
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a rectangular base, that its twice as long as it is wide.
It must hold 12 yd^3 of debris.
We have to minimize the surface area, subjet to the restriction of volume (12 yd^3).
The surface is equal to:

The volume restriction is:

If we replace h in the surface equation, we have:

To optimize, we derive and equal to zero:
![dS/dw=36(-1)w^{-2} + 8w=0\\\\36w^{-2}=8w\\\\w^3=36/8=4.5\\\\w=\sqrt[3]{4.5} =1.65](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=dS%2Fdw%3D36%28-1%29w%5E%7B-2%7D%20%2B%208w%3D0%5C%5C%5C%5C36w%5E%7B-2%7D%3D8w%5C%5C%5C%5Cw%5E3%3D36%2F8%3D4.5%5C%5C%5C%5Cw%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B4.5%7D%20%3D1.65)
Then, the height h is:

The dimensions that minimize the surface are:
Wide: 1.65 yd
Long: 3.30 yd
Height: 2.20 yd
