Answer: 5x + 2y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Change 5x+2y=12 to slope intercept: 2y = 12 - 5x, y = -5x/2 + 6

A parallel line has the same slope, so the line we try to find is y = -5x/2 + b.

Substitute (-2, 4) in and get 4=5+b, so b = -1.

Therefore the answer is y = -5x/2 - 1, or if you want it in the original form it would be 2y = -5x - 2 ---> 5x+2y = -2.

Hope that helped,

2 Construct a rational function that will help solve the problem. Then, use a calculator to answer the question.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

<u><em>Dimension of box:-</em></u>

Side of square base = 10 in

Height of box = 5 in

Minimum Surface area, S = 300 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

An open box with a square base is to have a volume of 500 cubic inches.

Let side of the base be x and height of the box is y

Volume of box = area of base × height

                 500=x^2y

Therefore, y=\dfrac{500}{x^2}

It is open box. The surface area of box, S .

S=x^2+4xy

Put  y=\dfrac{500}{x^2}

S(x)=x^2+\dfrac{2000}{x}

This would be rational function of surface area.

For maximum/minimum to differentiate S(x)

S'(x)=2x-\dfrac{2000}{x^2}

For critical point, S'(x)=0

2x-\dfrac{2000}{x^2}=0

x^3=1000

x=10

Put x = 10 into y=\dfrac{500}{x^2}

y = 5

Double derivative of S(x)

S''(x)=2+\dfrac{4000}{x^3} at x = 10

S''(10) > 0

Therefore, Surface is minimum at x = 10 inches

Minimum Surface area, S = 300 in²
