Answer: 12 storage cubes will fit into Melissa's crate

Step-by-step explanation:

Melissa's crate is a cuboid. Since the crate has a bottom dimension of 8 inches by 12 inches, it is assumed that the width of the cuboid (crate) is 8 inches and the length of the cuboid is 12 inches.

Since the volume = 768 cubic inches, the length = ? inches

The volume of cuboid = length × width × height

768 = 12 × 8 × h

96 × h = 768

h = 768/96

h = 8 inches

The height of the cuboid is 8 inches.

Now, since each of the cubes being stacked into the crate has a side of 4 inches, the volume of each cube is therefore:-

Volume of a cube = L^3 (since all sides of a cube is equal)

Where L = length of a side of cube

Volume = 4 × 4 × 4

Volume = 64 cubic inches.

To calculate the quantity of storage cubes that can fit into the crate, we then divide the volume of the crate by the volume of the storage cube:

= 768/64

= 12

Therefore, 12 storage cubes will fit into the crate.

Answer:

12 cubes can fit in the create.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the volume of a the crate is 768 in³, and the definition of the volume is:

V=A*h

Where:

  • V is the volume
  • A is the area (A=8*12 in²)
  • h is the height

So h=\frac{V}{A}=\frac{768}{12*8}=8 in    

Now, we know that the storage cube has a length of 4 in so we have a volume equal to 64 in³. Therefore we just need to divide 768 in³ by 64 in³ it is 12.

Finally, 12 cubes can fit in the create.

I hope it helps you!

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

5(11x-2) = 155

55x - 10 = 155

55x = 165

x = 165/55

x = 3

Find all points on the portion of the plane x+y+z=5 in the first octant at which f(x, y, z) = xy2z2 has a maximum value.
irina1246 [14]
Lagrange multipliers:

L(x,y,z,\lambda)=xy^2z^2+\lambda(x+y+z-5)

L_x=y^2z^2+\lambda=0
L_y=2xyz^2+\lambda=0
L_z=2xy^2z+\lambda=0
L_\lambda=x+y+z-5=0

\lambda=-y^2z^2=-2xyz^2=-2xy^2z

-y^2z^2=-2xyz^2\implies y=2x (if y,z\neq0)

-y^2z^2=-2xy^2z\implies z=2x (if y,z\neq0)

-2xyz^2=-2xy^2z\implies z=y (if x,y,z\neq0)

In the first octant, we assume x,y,z>0, so we can ignore the caveats above. Now,

x+y+z=5\iff x+2x+2x=5x=5\implies x=1\implies y=z=2

so that the only critical point in the region of interest is (1, 2, 2), for which we get a maximum value of f(1,2,2)=16.

We also need to check the boundary of the region, i.e. the intersection of x+y+z=5 with the three coordinate axes. But in each case, we would end up setting at least one of the variables to 0, which would force f(x,y,z)=0, so the point we found is the only extremum.

Keisha pumped 6 gallons of water into her pool each minute for 48 minutes what was the total change in the amount of water in th
Eduardwww [97]

The total change in the amount of water in the pool is 288 gallons.

<h3>What is Volume?</h3>

Volume is a scalar quantity expressing the amount of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.

Here, Rate of water pumped into her pool = 6 gallons / minute.

          Total Duration = 48 minutes

Total amount of water = Rate X Time

                                     = 6 X 48

                                     = 288 gallons

Thus, the total change in the amount of water in the pool is 288 gallons.
