See picture for solution steps and answer.
you cannot show too much "work"
basically, you remove what is common to all of the factors, and then put brackets, as it will be multiplied back in, remember that when you multiply exponents with the same base, its same as adding them, so subtract to remove...
you can seperate two of the variables , then factor, then subtract the last one from those two, because it cannot be factored out , as in part2 #2
Answer:
8.3
Step-by-step explanation:
The tenths spot in 8.275 is where the 2 is. Since it is a 75 after that you will round it up.
. Tenths (2), Hundredths (7), Thousandths (5)
Answer:
x = 10 cm, y = 5 cm gives a minimum area of 300 cm^2.
Step-by-step explanation:
V= x^2y = 500
Surface area A = x^2 + 4xy.
From the first equation y = 500/x^2
So substituting for y in the equation for the surface area:
A = x^2 + 4x * 500/x^2
A = x^2 + 2000/x
Finding the derivative:
dA/dx = 2x - 2000x^-2
dA/dx = 2x - 2000/x^2
This = 0 for a minimum/maximum value of A, so
2x - 2000/x^2 = 0
2x^3 - 2000 = 0
x^3 = 2000/ 2 = 1000
x = 10
Second derivative is 2 + 4000/x^3
when x = 10 this is positive so x = 10 gives a minimum value of A.
So y = 500/x^2
= 500/100
= 5.
