Let
x------> the length side of the square base of the box
y-------> the height of the box
we know that
volume of the box=b²*h
b=x
h=y
volume=256 cm³
so
256=x²*y------>y=256/x²--------> equation 1
<span>The amount of material used is directly proportional to the surface area, so we will minimize the amount of material by minimizing the surface area.</span>
surface area of the cardboard=area of the base+perimeter of base*height
area of the base=x²
perimeter of the base=4*x
height=y
surface area=x²+4x*y-----> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
SA=x²+4x*[256/x²]-----> SA=x²+1024/x
step 1
find the first derivative of SA and equate to zero
2x+1024*(-1)/x²=0------> 2x=1024/x²----> x³=512--------> x=8 cm
y=256/x²------> y=256/8²-----> y=4 cm
the answer is
the length side of the square base of the box is 8 cm
the height of the box is 4 cm
Answer:
Neighborhood Q appears to have a bigger family size
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean = the sum of all data values divided by the total number of data values
Number of families in Neighborhood Q = 9
Mean family size of Neighborhood Q:
= (2 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 5 + 3 + 6 + 5) ÷ 9
= 35 ÷ 9
= 3.888888...
Number of families in Neighborhood S = 9
Mean family size of Neighborhood S:
= (2 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 7 + 2 + 3 + 3 + 2) ÷ 9
= 27 ÷ 9
= 3
The mean family size of Neighborhood Q is 3.88.. and the mean family size of Neighborhood S is 3. Therefore, Neighborhood Q appears to have a bigger family size as it's average family size is bigger than that of Neighborhood S.
Answer:
6√3 = x y =12
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the two sides of the triangles have equal angles then two sides have equal length
the sum of interior angles of triangles is 180° then the last angle is 60°
then the triangles have perfect sides of 12
y = 12
to calculate x
sin Ф = opposite/hypothenus
sin 60° = x/12
sin 60° = √3/2
( √3/2 ) x 12 = x
6√3 = x
Answer=A
Let's write the an equation in slope intercept for for the line.
y-intercept=10
slope=rise/run=15/2=7.5
equation:
y=mx+b
y=7.5x+10
Solve for x=7
y=7.5(7)+10
y=52.5+10
y=62.5
Answer=A
