Written an alternate way it is x^2/3 • 5x^3/3 (because 5x is to the power of one and in order to add fractions, you have to have the same denominator). So when you multiply the like terms, you add the exponents (2/3 and 3/3).

A rectangular box is to have a square base and a volume of 72 ft3. If the material for the base costs $0.62/ft2, the material fo

Answer:

a. length  = 0.7211 ft

b. width  = 0.7211 ft

c. height = 140.3846 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an optimiztion with restriction problem.

We have to minimize the cost, with the restriction of the volume being equal to 72 ft3.

As the cost for the sides is constant, we know that length and width are equal.

Then, we can express the volume as:

V=x\cdot y\cdot z=x^2z=73

being x: length and z: height

We can express the height in function of the length as:

x^2z=73\\\\z=73x^{-2}

Then, the cost of the box can be expressed as:

C=0.62(x^2)+4*0.15(xz)+0.18(x^2)=(0.62+0.18)x^2+0.60xz\\\\C=0.8x^2+0.60x*x^{-2}=0.8x^2+0.6x^{-1}

To optimize C, we derive and equal to zero

\dfrac{dC}{dx}=\dfrac{d}{dx}[0.8x^2+0.6x^{-1}]=1.6x-0.6x^{-2}=0\\\\\\1.6x=0.6x^{-2}\\\\x^{1+2}=0.6/1.6=0.375\\\\x=\sqrt[3]{0.375} =0.7211

The height z is then

z=73x^{-2}=\dfrac{73}{0.7211^2}=\dfrac{73}{0.52}=140.3846

Give an example of an integer and its opposite.
prisoha [69]
An integer is a whole number. Two integers are opposite if they have the same distance away from zero. For example,
2 and -2
or
28 and -28
Those are all integers and opposites.

Hope this helps :)
