Answer:
m = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given w is inversely proportional to m then the equation relating them is
w =
← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition w = 8, m = 25 , then
8 =
( multiply both sides by 25 )
200 = k
w =
← equation of variation
When w = 20 , then
20 =
( multiply both sides by m )
20m = 200 ( divide both sides by 20 )
m = 10
Possible dimension of a box with a volume of 100 cubic cm
10 x 10 x 1 = 100
10 x 5 x 2 = 100
5 x 5 x 4 = 100
Surface area:
10 x 10 x 1 dimensions:
10 x 10 = 100 x 2 = 200 sq.cm
10 x 1 = 10 x 4 = 40 sq. cm
240 sq. cm * $0.05 / 100 sq.cm = $0.12 per box
0.12 per box * 100 boxes = $12
10 x 5 x 2 dimension
10 x 5 = 50 x 2 = 100 sq. cm
10 x 2 = 20 x 2 = 40 sq. cm
5 x 2 = 10 x 2 = 20 sq. cm
160 sq. cm * $0.05/100 sq. cm = $0. 08 per box
0.08 per box * 100 boxes = $8
5 x 5 x 4 dimension
5 x 5 = 25 x 2 = 50 sq. cm
5 x 4 = 20 x 4 = 80 sq. cm
130 sq. cm * $0.05/100 sq. cm = $0.065 per box
0.065 per box * 100 boxes = $6.50
The best dimension to use to have the least cost to make 100 boxes is 5 x 5 x 4. It only costs $6.50 to make 100 boxes.
Answer:
I think the answer is 2. Hope this helps!
Yes, remember this 4 or less let it rest, 5 or more let it soar.
