Assuming compount interest format

for compounded per 1 year
A=future amount
P=present amount
r=rate in decimal
t=time in years
given
P=270
r=5%=0.05
the equaton is

or

for any year, 2009, is year 0, so if you wanted to input the year then

would be for t=what year it was
A.

b. 2009 to 2020
2020-2009=11 years
t=11

f(11)=461.792
about 462 cranes
A.

B. about 462
103 would be the correct answer
total surface area Stot = 1180 in2
lateral surface area Slat = 920 in2
top surface area Stop = 130 in2
bottom surface area Sbot = 130 in2
Answer:
2.67 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that we represent the size of the squares with the letter y, such that after the squares are being cut from each corner, the rectangular length of the box that is formed can now be ( 23 - 2y), the width to be (13 - 2y) and the height be (x).
The formula for a rectangular box = L × B × W
= (23 -2y)(13-2y) (y)
= (299 - 46y - 26y + 4y²)y
= 299y - 72y² + 4y³
Now for the maximum volume:
dV/dy = 0
This implies that:
299y - 72y² + 4y³ = 299 - 144y + 12y² = 0
By using the quadratic formula; we have :

where;
a = 12; b = -144 and c = 299






Since the width is 13 inches., it can't be possible for the size of the square to be cut to be 9.33
Thus, the size of the square to be cut out from each corner to obtain the maximum volume is 2.67 inches.
