Answer: STOP CHEATING cheater... ok I am nice and here’s answer

74.60=3x+2.60

74.60-2.60=72

72/3=24

x=24

If 30,000 cm2 of material is available to make a box with a square base and an open top, what is the largest possible volume (in

Cloud [144]

Answer:

The largest possible volume of the box is 2000000 cubic meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume ( $V$ ), in cubic centimeters, and surface area ( $A_{s}$ ), in square centimeters, of the box with a square base are described below:

$A_{s} = l^{2}+h\cdot l$ (1)

$V = l^{2}\cdot h$ (2)

Where:

$l$ - Side length of the base, in centimeters.

$h$ - Height of the box, in centimeters.

By (2), we clear $h$ within the formula:

$h = \frac{V}{l^{2}}$

And we apply in (1) and simplify the resulting expression:

$A_{s} = l^{2}+ \frac{V}{l}$

$A_{s}\cdot l = l^{3}+V$

$V = A_{s}\cdot l -l^{3}$ (3)

Then, we find the first and second derivatives of this expression:

$V' = A_{s}-3\cdot l^{2}$ (4)

$V'' = -6\cdot l$ (5)

If $V' = 0$ and $A_{s} = 30000\,cm^{2}$ , then we find the critical value of the side length of the base is:

$30000-3\cdot l^{2} = 0$

$3\cdot l^{2} = 30000$

$l = 100\,cm$

Then, we evaluate this result in the expression of the second derivative:

$V'' = -600$

By Second Derivative Test, we conclude that critical value leads to an absolute maximum. The maximum possible volume of the box is:

$V = 30000\cdot l - l^{3}$

$V = 2000000\,cm^{3}$

The largest possible volume of the box is 2000000 cubic meters.

Si 4x= 5/6y entonces 5y=

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

$5y=24x$

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The question in English is</em>

If 4x= 5/6y then 5y=

we have

$4x=\frac{5}{6}y$

Solve for 5y

Multiply both sides by 6

$6*4x=(6)*\frac{5}{6}y$

Simplify

$24x=5y$

Rewrite

$5y=24x$
