A rectangular building with a square front is to be constructed of materials that costs 11 dollars per ft2 for the flat roof, 14

dollars per ft2 for the sides and the back, and 15 dollars per ft2 for the glass front. We will ignore the bottom of the building. If the volume of the building is 5,600 ft3, what dimensions will minimize the cost of materials? (Round your answers to the nearest hundreth such that the dimensions increase from the smallest to the largest.)

Answer:

y = 23.14 ft

x = 15.56 ft

so the dimensions of the building will be = 15.56 ft x 15.56 ft x 23.14 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

the area of the roof = xy

cost of the roof = 11xy

the area of the sides and back = 2xy + x²

cost of the sides and back = 14(2xy + x²) = 28xy + 14x²

area of the glass front = x²

cost of the glass front = 15x²

minimize:

total cost = 11xy + 28xy + 14x² + 15x² = 39xy + 29x²

total volume = x²y = 5600 ⇒ constraint

39y + 58x = 2λxy

39x = λx2

x²y = 5600

λx = 39 which we replace into the first equation

39y + 58x = 78y

58x = 39y

(58x)²y = 58² · 5600

now we replace 58x by 39y

(39y)²y = 58² · 5600

39² · y³ = 58² · 5600

y³ = (58² · 5600) / 39² = 12,385.53583

y = ∛12,385.53583  = 23.14 ft

x² = 5600/ 23.14 = 242.04

x = 15.56 ft

Which equation correctly uses point (–2, –6) to write the equation of this line in point-slope form? Y – 6 = y minus 6 equals St
Tanya [424]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard way of writing equation of a line in a point-slope form is as given;

y - y0 = m(x-x0)

m is the slope of the line

(x0,y0) is a point on the line.

Given the point (-2,-6), in order to determine with of the equation that correctly uses the point, we will substitute the point into the formula and get the necessary equation.

y - y0 = m(x-x0)

y - (-6) = m(x-(-2))

y+6 = m(x+2)

Since we are not given the slope, let's assume the slope is 5/2

The equation becomes y+6 =5/2(x+2). Option D is correct

2) At the store Julie bought a shirt for $23.97, which was 25% off the original price. Which of these should she use to find x,
Scrat [10]

Answer:

0.75x = 23.97

Step-by-step explanation:

The total is 23.97. 0.25% is off so you have to subtracting 25% from 100% and you will get 75% if you convert it to decimal you will get 0.75.

timurjin [86]

Answer:

- question 2 answer is C. (-1,7) and (6,28)

- question 3 answer is A. it is possible for a system of equations composed of linear function and a quadratic function to have 3 solutions.

- question 4 answer is (1,6)

P.s. if any question is wrong then I'm sorry. :(

Step-by-step explanation:

question 4

y=2x^2-5x+9

y= 2x^2+5x-1

y= 2x^2-5x+9=2x^2+5x-1

x=1

y= 2×1^2+5×1-1

y=6
