Let
x------> the length side of the square base of the box
y-------> the height of the box
we know that
volume of the box=b²*h
b=x
h=y
volume=256 cm³
so
256=x²*y------>y=256/x²--------> equation 1
<span>The amount of material used is directly proportional to the surface area, so we will minimize the amount of material by minimizing the surface area.</span>
surface area of the cardboard=area of the base+perimeter of base*height
area of the base=x²
perimeter of the base=4*x
height=y
surface area=x²+4x*y-----> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
SA=x²+4x*[256/x²]-----> SA=x²+1024/x
step 1
find the first derivative of SA and equate to zero
2x+1024*(-1)/x²=0------> 2x=1024/x²----> x³=512--------> x=8 cm
y=256/x²------> y=256/8²-----> y=4 cm
the answer is
the length side of the square base of the box is 8 cm
the height of the box is 4 cm
Answer:
4 significant figures are in the number 0.3368
Answer:
D. m∠A=43, m∠B=55, a=20
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
∆ABC,
m<C = 82°
AB = c = 29
AC = b = 24
Required:
m<A, m<C, and a (BC)
SOLUTION:
Find m<B using the law of sines:








m<B = 55°
Find m<A:
m<A = 180 - (82 + 55) => sum of angles in a triangle.
= 180 - 137
m<A = 43°
Find a using the law of sines:


Cross multiply

Answer:
2.3
Step-by-step explanation:
138 divided by 60=2.3
divide the amount consumed by the total number of households involved
You would do 2^2 and will come out to 4. Your mixed number is 4. Then you will do 3/4^2 and will come out to 9/12 Your answer is 4 9/12
