Answer:

r=1.05\ \text{ft}

h=2.12\ \text{ft}

20.91\ \text{ft}^3

Step-by-step explanation:

r = Radius

h = Height

Volume of cylinder = 7.35\ \text{ft}^3

V=\pi r^2h\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{V}{\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{7.35}{\pi r^2}

Surface area is given by

A=2\pi r^2+2\pi rh\\\Rightarrow A=2\pi r^2+2\pi r\dfrac{7.35}{\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow A=2\pi r^2+\dfrac{14.7}{r}

Differentiating with respect to radius we get

\dfrac{dA}{dr}=4\pi r-\dfrac{14.7}{r^2}

Equating with zero we get

0=4\pi r-\dfrac{14.7}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow 4\pi r=\dfrac{14.7}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow r^3=\dfrac{14.7}{4\pi}\\\Rightarrow r=(\dfrac{14.7}{4\pi})^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow r=1.05

\dfrac{d^2A}{dr^2}=4\pi-2\times \dfrac{14.7}{r^3}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d^2A}{dr^2}=4\pi+2\times \dfrac{14.7}{1.05^3}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d^2A}{dr^2}=37.96>0

So, the value of the function is minimum at r=1.05

h=\dfrac{7.35}{\pi r^2}=\dfrac{7.35}{\pi 1.05^2}\\\Rightarrow h=2.12

So, the radius and height which would minimize the surface area is 1.05 feet and 2.12 feet respectively.

Surface area

A=2\pi r^2+2\pi rh\\\Rightarrow A=2\pi \times 1.05^2+2\pi 1.05\times 2.12\\\Rightarrow A=20.91\ \text{ft}^3

The minimum surface area is 20.91\ \text{ft}^3.

Michael is paid $9 per hour to work at the movie theater and $7 per hour when he helps his aunt at her bakery. Michael cannot wo
KIM [24]

Answer:

The first one/$9 an hour job.

Step-by-step explanation:

For every 32 hours he works at the $9 per hour job he makes $288.

On the other hand, for every 32 hours he works at the $7 per hour job he only makes $224.

So the only one that'll work where he gets at least $251 is the $9 an hour job.

A panda and a giraffe start moving towards each other when they are 300 feet apart. The panda is running at a speed of P feet pe
liq [111]

Answer:

(2P + G) feet/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of the panda = P

Speed of the giraffe = P + G

Thus,

Speed of Panda + Speed of Giraffe = approaching time

= P + P + G

= <u>2P + G</u>

Thus, The panda and the giraffe are approaching each other at a rate

of <u>(2P + G) ft/min</u>

<u></u>

Da<br> A<br> Solve the equation 2x^2+3=0
Anika [276]

Answer:

x = ±i(√6 / 2)

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Equality Properties

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Solving quadratics

<u>Algebra II</u>

Imaginary root i

  • √-1 = i

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify</em>

2x² + 3 = 0

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 3 on both sides:                        2x² = -3
  2. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 2 on both sides:                                  x² = -3/2
  3. [Equality Property] Square root both sides:                                                    x = ±√(-3/2)
  4. Simplify:                                                                                                             x = ±i(√6 / 2)
