Answer: The small coffee cup holds approximately 7 fluid ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Height of small cup = 4.2 inches

Height of large cup = 5 inches

Since volume of large coffee cup = 12 fluid ounces.

We need to find the volume of small cup say. x.

According to ratio proportionality theorem, we get that

(\dfrac{4.2}{5})^3=\dfrac{x}{12}\\\\\dfrac{4.2^3}{5^3}=\dfrac{x}{12}\\\\\dfrac{889.056}{125}=x\\\\7.11=x

Hence, the small coffee cup holds approximately 7 fluid ounces.

A lidless box is to be made with a volume of 256256 ft cubed 3. Find the dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of
sveta [45]

The optimum shape of such a box is half a cube. The corresponding cube will have a volume of 2×256 ft³ = 512 ft³ = (8 ft)³. Such a box has a square base that is 8 ft on a side. If the height is half that of the cube, it will be 4 ft.

The dimensions of your box will be 8 ft square by 4 ft high.

_____

If the base dimension is x ft, the area (quantity of material) is

... a = x² + 4x(256/x²)

... a = x² + 1024x⁻¹

Then the derivative of area with respect to x is

... a' = 2x -1024x⁻²

Setting this derivative to zero and solving for x gives the value of x for minimum area.

... 0 = 2x -1024/x²

... 512 = x³

... x = 8 . . . . . . . . same as above.
