Answer:
a = length of the base = 2.172 m
b = width of the base = 1.357 m
c = height = 4.072 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose we want to build a rectangular storage container with open top whose volume is 12 cubic meters. Assume that the cost of materials for the base is 12 dollars per square meter, and the cost of materials for the sides is 8 dollars per square meter. The height of the box is three times the width of the base. What’s the least amount of money we can spend to build such a container?
lets call a = length of the base
b = width of the base
c = height
V = a.b.c = 12
Area without the top:
Area = ab + 2bc + 2ac
Cost = 12ab + 8.2bc + 8.2ac
Cost = 12ab + 16bc + 16ac
height = 3.width
c = 3b
Cost = 12ab + 16b.3b + 16a.3b = 12ab + 48b² + 48ab = 48b² + 60ab
abc = 12 → ab.3b = 12 → 3ab² = 12 → ab² = 4 → a = 4/b²
Cost = 48b² + 60ab = 48b² + 60b.4/b² = 48b² + 240/b
C(b) = 48b² + 240/b
C'(b) = 96b - 240/b²
Minimum cost: C'(b) = 0
96b - 240/b² = 0
(96b³ - 240)/b² = 0
96b³ - 240 = 0
96b³ = 240
b³ = 240/96
b³ = 2.5
b = 1.357m
c = 3b = 3*1.357 = 4.072m
a = 4/b² = 2.172m
Answer:
4,864,000,000.00
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 1,4 therefore y = 1x - 4
Given:
x = 12 in, y = 16 in and z = 20 in
To find:
The surface area of the geometric shape.
Solution:
Area of top rectangle = z × z
= 20 × 20
Area of top rectangle = 400 in²
Area of middle rectangle = z × y
= 20 × 16
Area of middle rectangle = 320 in²
Area of bottom rectangle = z × x
= 20 × 12
Area of bottom rectangle = 240 in²
Area of left triangle = 
Area of left triangle = 96 in²
Area of right triangle =
Area of right triangle = 96 in²
Surface area = 400 + 320 + 240 + 96 + 96
= 1152
The surface area of the geometric shape is 1152 in².
Answer:
<u></u>
- <u>No. You would have to cut the number of veggie burgers in more than half.</u>
Explanation:
<u>1. Model the situation with a system of equations</u>
<u />
<u>a) Name the variables:</u>
- number of turkey burgers: t
- number of veggie burgers: v
<u />
<u>b) Number of burgers:</u>
<u />
<u>c) Cost of the 50 burgers:</u>
<u>2. Solve that system of equations:</u>
<u />
<u>a) System</u>
<u>b) Mutliply the first equation by 2 and subtract the second equation</u>
- 100 = 2t + 2v
- 90 = 2t + 1.50v
- v = 20 ⇒ t = 50 - 20 = 30
<u />
<u>c) How much would you spend if the next year you buy the double of 20 turkey burgers (40) and the half of 30 veggie burgers (15)</u>
- $2(40) + $1.50(15) = $80 + $22.50 = $102.50
Then, you if you double the number of turkey burgers, and cut the number burgers in half, you would spend more than $90 ($102.50).
