Tamika has a hard rubber ball whose circumference measures 13 inches. she wants to box it for a gift but can only find cube-shap

ed boxes of sides 3 inches, 4 inches, 5 inches, or 6 inches. which of these is the smallest box that the ball will fit into with the top on? 1.

The rubber ball, in this case, can be considered a circle with a circumference of 13 inches. So, we can find the diameter of the rubber ball using the formula $C=\pi d$ or $d=\frac{C}{\pi }$ . That is
$d=\frac{C}{\pi }=\frac{13\:inches}{\pi }=\frac{13}{\pi }=4.14\:inches$

Therefore, the diameter is greater than 4 inches and less than 5 inches. That means the smallest box that the ball will fit into with the top on is the 5 inches box.

Find the directional derivative of f(x,y,z)=z3−x2yf(x,y,z)=z3−x2y at the point (−5,5,2)(−5,5,2) in the direction of the vector v

olga_2 [115]

We are given

$f=z^3 -x^2y$

Firstly, we can find gradient

so, we will find partial derivatives

$f_x=0 -2xy$

$f_x=-2xy$

$f_y=0 -x^2$

$f_y=-x^2$

$f_z=3z^2$

now, we can plug point (-5,5,2)

$f_x=-2*-5*5=50$

$f_y=-(-5)^2=-25$

$f_z=3(2)^2=12$

so, gradient will be

$gradf=(50,-25,12)$

now, we are given that

it is in direction of v=⟨−3,2,−4⟩

so, we will find it's unit vector

$|v|=\sqrt{(-3)^2+(2)^2+(-4)^2}$

$|v|=\sqrt{29}$

now, we can find unit vector

$v'=(\frac{-3}{\sqrt{29} } , \frac{2}{\sqrt{29} } , \frac{-4}{\sqrt{29} })$

now, we can find dot product to find direction of the vector

$dir=(gradf) \cdot (v')$

now, we can plug values

$dir=(50,-25,12) \cdot (\frac{-3}{\sqrt{29} } , \frac{2}{\sqrt{29} } , \frac{-4}{\sqrt{29} })$

$dir=(-\frac{150}{\sqrt{29} } - \frac{50}{\sqrt{29} } - \frac{48}{\sqrt{29} })$

$dir=-\frac{248\sqrt{29}}{29}$ .............Answer

haiely created another problem involving 2 rectangles she says 2 rectangles have the same area javito says that her statement is

Verizon [17]

Her statement is possible, the first rectangle could be equal to the second because x is unknown so if x was 5in in the first rectangle and - 1 in the second rectangle both problems would look like this 2 in & 5 in and the second one 5in & (2 in = (-1 +3)).
