Let us say that x is the cut that we will make on the
sides to make a box, therefore the new dimensions are:
l = 15 – 2x
w = 8 – 2x
It is 2x since we cut on two sides.
We know that volume is:
V = l w x
V = (15 – 2x) (8 – 2x) x
V = 120x – 30x^2 – 16x^2 + 4x^3
V = 120x – 46x^2 + 4x^3
Taking the 1st derivative:
dV/dx = 120 – 92x + 12x^2
Set dV/dx = 0 to get maxima:
120 – 92x + 12x^2 = 0
Divide by 12:
x^2 – (92/12)x + 10 = 0
(x – (92/24))^2 = -10 + (92/24)^2
x - 92/24 = ±2.17
x = 1.66, 6
We cannot have x = 6 because that will make our w
negative, so:
x = 1.66 inches
So the largest volume is:
V = 120x – 46x^2 + 4x^3
V = 120(1.66) – 46(1.66)^2 + 4(1.66)^3
V = 90.74 cubic inches
Answer:
a. Light pollution refers to light used for human activities that brightens the sky and hinders astronomical observations.
Explanation:
Light pollution is due to the excessive and misdirected use of artificial light. Light bulbs are often design in an incorrect way, since a great part of its light is not completely directed to the ground and an important percentage is emitted to the sky in where will be scattered and reflected back to ground by the particles in the atmosphere. That brings as an effect a sky glow, therefore the visibility of astronomical objects will be extremely reduce.
Hence, professional astronomical research and amateur observations will be affected. Light pollution has a negative impact on bird migration at night and in the health of difference species, humans also.
