Answer:
![h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V}{4}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B49V%7D%7B4%7D%7D)
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the volume of the box with V and the dimensions with l, b and h.
The volume (V) is:

Make h the subject of the formula

The surface area (S) of the aquarium is:

Where lb represents the area of the base (i.e. slate):
The cost (C) of the surface area is:



Substitute
for h in the above equation



Differentiate with respect to l and with respect to b


To solve for b and l, we equate both equations and set l to b (to minimize the cost)


By comparison:

becomes

Cross Multiply

Solve for l

![l = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=l%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B2V%7D%7B7%7D%7D)
Recall that: 
![b = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=b%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B2V%7D%7B7%7D%7D)
Also recall that:

![h = \frac{V}{\sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}*\sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7BV%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B2V%7D%7B7%7D%7D%2A%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B2V%7D%7B7%7D%7D%7D)
![h = \frac{V}{\sqrt[3]{\frac{4V^2}{49}}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7BV%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B4V%5E2%7D%7B49%7D%7D%7D)
Apply law of indices
![h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V^3}{4V^2}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B49V%5E3%7D%7B4V%5E2%7D%7D)

The dimension that minimizes the cost of material of the aquarium is:
![h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V}{4}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B49V%7D%7B4%7D%7D)
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
You want ...
4x +24 = 8x
24 = 4x . . . . . . . . subtract 4x
6 = x . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 4
When x=6, the slats are parallel.
Answer:
0.2 in decimal form and 1/5 in fraction form
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
m = 2, b = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + b ( m is the slope and b the y- intercept )
Given
6x - 1 = 3y - 10 ( add 10 to both sides )
6x + 9 = 3y ( divide all terms by 3 )
2x + 3 = y , that is
y = 2x + 3 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 2 and y- intercept b = 3
