midpoint= (x, y)

where x=(x1 + x2)/2

y=(y1 + y2)/2

x1=-3, x2=6, y1=5, y2=-11

so x=(-3 + 6)/2= 3/2

y=(5 + -11)/2= (5-11)/2= -6/2= -3

so mid point =(3/2, -3)

hope this helps

An open-top rectangular box with square base is to be made from 100 square feet of material, as shown.

-Dominant- [34]

The largest possible volume of the given box is; 96.28 ft³

<h3>How to maximize volume of a box?</h3>

Let b be the length and the width of the base (length and width are the same since the base is square).

Let h be the height of the box.

The surface area of the box is;

S = b² + 4bh

We are given S = 100 ft². Thus;

b² + 4bh = 100

h = (100 - b²)/4b

Volume of the box in terms of b will be;

V(b) = b²h = b² * (100 - b²)/4b

V(b) = 25b - b³/4

The volume is maximum when dV/db = 0. Thus;

dV/db = 25 - 3b²/4

25 - 3b²/4 = 0

√(100/3) = b

b = 5.77 ft

Thus;

h = (100 - (√(100/3)²)/4(5.77)

h = 2.8885 ft

Thus;

Largest volume = [√(100/3)]² * 2.8885

Largest Volume = 96.28 ft³

The surface area of a cylinder is increasing at a rate of 9 pi square meters per hour. The height of the cylinder is fixed at 3

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

$9\pi \text{ cubic meters per hour}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the surface area of a cylinder,

$A= 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh$ ................(1)

Where,

r = radius,

h = height,

If $A= 36\pi\text{ square meters}, h = 3\text{ meters}$

$36\pi = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r(3)$

$18 = r^2 + 3r$

$\implies r^2 + 3r - 18=0$

$r^2 + 6r - 3r - 18 = 0$ ( by middle term splitting )

$r(r+6)-3(r+6)=0$

$(r-3)(r+6)=0$

By zero product property,

r = 3 or r = - 6 ( not possible )

Thus, radius, r = 3 meters,

Now, differentiating equation (1) with respect to t ( time ),

$\frac{dA}{dt}= 4\pi r\frac{dr}{dt} +2\pi(r\frac{dh}{dt} + h\frac{dr}{dt})$

∵ h = constant, ⇒ dh/dt = 0,

$\frac{dA}{dt} = 4\pi r \frac{dr}{dt} +2\pi h \frac{dr}{dt}$

We have, $\frac{dA}{dt}=9\pi\text{ square meters per hour}, r = h = 3\text{ meters}$

$9\pi = 4\pi (3) \frac{dr}{dt}+2\pi (3)\frac{dr}{dt}$

$9\pi = (12\pi + 6\pi )\frac{dr}{dt}$

$9\pi = 18\pi \frac{dr}{dt}$

$\implies \frac{dr}{dt} =\frac{1}{2}\text{ meter per hour}$

Now,

Volume of a cylinder,

$V=\pi r^2 h$

Differentiating w. r. t. t,

$\frac{dV}{dt}=\pi ( r^2 \frac{dh}{dt}+h(2r)\frac{dr}{dt})=\pi ((3)(6) (\frac{1}{2})) = 9\pi \text{ cubic meters per hour}$

Select all the common denominators for

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

B, E

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a few ways to check for common denominator.

Here is one method

Take the 4 and 10 and see if both numbers will go into the numbers evenly. If they do, it is a common denominator

Will 4 and 10 divide evenly into 10 ?

4 will not go into 10 evenly

10 is not a common denominator.

Will 4 and 10 divide evenly into 20?

4 will go into 20 evenly. 20 /4 = 5

10 will go into 20 evenly 20 / 10 = 2

So 20 is a common denominator

Will 4 and 10 divide evenly into 24?

4 will go into 24 evenly 24 / 4 = 6

10 will not go into 24 evenly

24 is not a common denominator

Will 4 and 10 divide evenly into 32?

4 will go into 32 evenly 32 / 4 = 8

10 will not go into 32 evenly

32 is not a common denominator

Will 4 and 10 divide evenly into 40?

4 will go into 40 evenly 40/4 = 10

10 will go into 40 evenly 40 / 10 = 4

40 is a common denominator
