Answer:
a = 17 sqrt(2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions
sin theta = opposite / hypotenuse
sin 45 = 17/a
Multiply each side by a
a sin 45 = 17
Divide each side by sin 45
a = 17 / sin 45
a = 17 / ( 1 / sqrt(2))
a = 17 sqrt(2)
Answer:
I got sin E = 0.5
Thus answer choice C being the correct choice
Hope this helps ;)

Answer:
![h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V}{4}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B49V%7D%7B4%7D%7D)
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the volume of the box with V and the dimensions with l, b and h.
The volume (V) is:

Make h the subject of the formula

The surface area (S) of the aquarium is:

Where lb represents the area of the base (i.e. slate):
The cost (C) of the surface area is:



Substitute
for h in the above equation



Differentiate with respect to l and with respect to b


To solve for b and l, we equate both equations and set l to b (to minimize the cost)


By comparison:

becomes

Cross Multiply

Solve for l

![l = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=l%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B2V%7D%7B7%7D%7D)
Recall that: 
![b = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=b%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B2V%7D%7B7%7D%7D)
Also recall that:

![h = \frac{V}{\sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}*\sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7BV%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B2V%7D%7B7%7D%7D%2A%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B2V%7D%7B7%7D%7D%7D)
![h = \frac{V}{\sqrt[3]{\frac{4V^2}{49}}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7BV%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B4V%5E2%7D%7B49%7D%7D%7D)
Apply law of indices
![h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V^3}{4V^2}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B49V%5E3%7D%7B4V%5E2%7D%7D)
![h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V}{4}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B49V%7D%7B4%7D%7D)
The dimension that minimizes the cost of material of the aquarium is:
![h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V}{4}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B49V%7D%7B4%7D%7D)
It would be 3,000,000 because 10^6 equals to 1,000,000.
Multiply 1 million by 3 equals 3 million.
