Let
x------> the length side of the square base of the box
y-------> the height of the box
we know that
volume of the box=b²*h
b=x
h=y
volume=256 cm³
so
256=x²*y------>y=256/x²--------> equation 1
<span>The amount of material used is directly proportional to the surface area, so we will minimize the amount of material by minimizing the surface area.</span>
surface area of the cardboard=area of the base+perimeter of base*height
area of the base=x²
perimeter of the base=4*x
height=y
surface area=x²+4x*y-----> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
SA=x²+4x*[256/x²]-----> SA=x²+1024/x
step 1
find the first derivative of SA and equate to zero
2x+1024*(-1)/x²=0------> 2x=1024/x²----> x³=512--------> x=8 cm
y=256/x²------> y=256/8²-----> y=4 cm
the answer is
the length side of the square base of the box is 8 cm
the height of the box is 4 cm
Answer:
200 yd²
Step-by-step explanation:
A = 17 yd
B = 15 yd
C = 2 yd
D = 8 yd
b) Area of rectangle = length * width
Area of right triangular prism = Areas of two triangle + area of the upper rectangle + area of middle rectangle + area of below rectangle
= 8 * 15 + 17 * 2 + 15 *2 + 8*2
= 120 + 34 + 30 + 16
= 200 yd²

Answer
f(-4) = 125, g(6) = -13
Step-by-step explanation:
all of those symbols might look really scary, but really all the problem is asking you to do is substitute -4 into the x in f(x) and 6 into the x in g(x) -- basically, f(-4) = 
= 125, and g(6) = 
= -13. there are your answers!
