Answer:

side of base, a = 10.1 inches, height, h = 40.1 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of rectangular solid, V = 4096 cubic inches

Let the side of base is a and the height is h.

V = a^2h\\\\4096 = a^2 h ..... (1)

surface area of the solid  

S = 2a^2 + 4 ah \\\\S = 2a^2 + 4 \times a \times \frac{4096}{a^2}    from (1)\\\S = 2a^2 + \frac{4096}{a}\\\\\frac{dS}{da}= 4 a - \frac{4096}{a^2}\\\\4 a - \frac{4096}{a^2} = 0 \\\\a^3 = 1024\\\\a =10.1 inches

So, h = 40.2 inches

The number 7 is the best prediction of the output when the input is 13.

<h3>What is the equation of a line passing through two given points in 2 dimensional plane?</h3>

Suppose the given points are (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2), then the equation of the straight line joining both two points is given by

(y - y_1) = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} (x -x_1)

The equation of the line is found as;

\rm y-y_1=  \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}      \\\\ \rm y-9=                                         \frac{31-9}{2+5} (x+5)\\\\ 7y-63 = \frac{31-9}{2+5} (c+5)\\\\ 7y-63=22x+110\\\\ 7y= 22x+173 \\\\ but ,x=13\\\\ 7y=22 \times 13 +173\\\\ y= \frac{1259}{7} \\\\ y= 179

In exercises 1 and 2, Find the value of x.
Kruka [31]

From the given picture, we can see that 2 sides are congruen, then the given triangle is an isosceles triangle. In this triangle the base angles are congruent, so we can draw the following picture:

Now, since interior angles of any triangle add up to 180 degrees, we have

x+\frac{x}{2}+\frac{x}{2}=180

By combining similar terms, we get

\begin{gathered} \frac{4}{2}x=180 \\ 2x=180 \end{gathered}

Then, x is given as

\begin{gathered} x=\frac{180}{2} \\ x=90 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answer is x=90 degrees

Show that d^2y/dx^2=-2x/y^5, if x^3 + y^3=1
aalyn [17]

Answer:

y³ + x³ = 1

First, differentiate the first time, term by term:

{3y^{2}.\frac{dy}{dx} + 3x^{2}} = 0 \\\\{3y^{2}.\frac{dy}{dx} = -3x^{2}} \\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-3x^{2}}{3y^{2}} \\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-x^{2}}{y^{2}}

↑ we'll substitute this later (4th step onwards)

Differentiate the second time:

3y^{2}.\frac{dy}{dx} + 3x^{2} = 0 \\\\3y^{2}.\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} + 6y(\frac{dy}{dx})^{2} + 6x = 0 \\\\3y^{2}.\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} + 6y(\frac{dy}{dx})^{2} = - 6x \\\\3y^{2}.\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} + 6y(\frac{-x^{2} }{y^{2} })^{2} = - 6x \\\\3y^{2}.\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} + 6y(\frac{x^{4} }{y^{4} }) = - 6x \\\\3y^{2}.\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} + \frac{6x^{4} }{y^{3} } = - 6x \\\\3y^{2}.\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} = - 6x - \frac{6x^{4} }{y^{3} } \\\\

3y^{2}.\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} =  - \frac{- 6xy^{3} - 6x^{4} }{y^{3}} \\\\\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} =  - \frac{- 6xy^{3} - 6x^{4} }{3y^{2}. y^{3}} \\\\\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} =  - \frac{- 2xy^{3} - 2x^{4} }{y^{5}} \\\\\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} =  - \frac{-2x (y^{3} + x^{3})}{y^{5}} \\\\\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} =  - \frac{-2x (1)}{y^{5}} \\\\\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} =  - \frac{-2x}{y^{5}}
