Find the expression where x - 2

Substitute 2 for x

From law of indices which states

So, the expression becomes

Expand the denominator


Hence,
is
when x = 2
Total cost, C = 8x^2 + 12xz
volume, V = (x^2)*z = 10
C = 8x^2 + 12x*10/x^2
= 8x^2 + 120/x
dC/dx = 16x - 120/x^2 = 0
16x = 120/x^2
x^3 = 120/16
x = 1.957 ft
d^2C/dx^2 = 16 +240/x^3 = +ve for x = 1.957
so, C is minimum when
x = 1.957 ft z = 2.61 ft
Length of the base x is 1.957 ft and height of side z is 2.61 ft
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Here's how to find the slope given any two points.
Subtract the y values.
14-(-18+-14+18=32
Subtract the x values.
-6-2=-8
And divide those.
32/-8=-4
The slope is -4.
Have a wonderful day! :D
