Answer:

The volume of the largest rectangular box (V) = 81/4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>:-

Given volume of the largest rectangular box in the first octant

V = l b h

let (x ,y, z) be the one vertex in the given plane

V = f(x, y, z) = x y z

given plane.   Ф (x, y, z) = x + 9y + 4z = 27 ........(1)

<u>Step( ii):</u>

By using  Lagrange multipliers

Suppose it is required to find the extreme for the function f(x, y, z) subject to the condition Ф (x, y, z) =0

Form Lagrange function F(x, y, z) = f(x, y, z) + λ  Ф (x, y, z) where λ is called the Lagrange multipliers

F(x, y, z) = x y z+ λ ( x + 9y + 4z - 27) ......(2)

Obtain the equations are δ F / δ x = 0

                                  δ f / δ x +λ  δ Ф  / δ x =0

                           ⇒ y z + λ ( 1) = 0

                          ⇒ y z = - λ ......(a)

Obtain the equations are δ F / δ y = 0

                            δ f / δ x +λ  δ Ф  / δ x =0

                        ⇒ x z + λ ( 9) = 0

                        ⇒ \frac{xz}{9} = - λ .......(b)

Obtain the equations are δ F / δ z = 0

                                  δ f / δ x +λ  δ Ф  / δ z =0

                                   x y + λ ( 4) = 0

                                    ⇒ \frac{xy}{4} = - λ .......(c)

<u>Step (iii):-</u>

Equating (a) and (b) equations

we get         y z = \frac{xz}{9}

cancel 'z' value we get  x = 9y  .......(d)

Equating (b) and (c) equations

we get     \frac{xy}{4}  = \frac{xz}{9}

cancel 'x' value on both sides , we get

              4z =9y  ......(e)

substitute (d) (e) values in equation (1)  we get

x + 9y + 4z -27 = 0

9y + 9y + 9y -27 =0

27y -27 =0

<u> y = 1</u>

substitute y =1 in x = 9y

<u>x = 9</u>

substitute y =1 in 4z =9y

<u>z = 9 /4</u>

therefore the dimensions are x =9 , y=1 and z = 9 /4

<u>Conclusion</u>:-

The largest volume of the rectangular box V = x y z

substitute x =9 , y=1 and z = 9 /4

V = 9(1)(9/4) =81/4

The largest volume of the rectangular box (V) = 81/4

Verification :-

Given plane x + 9y + 4z = 27

substitute x =9 , y=1 and z = 9 /4

              9 + 9 + 4(9/4) = 27

           27 =27

so satisfied equation

Given figure LMNO ~ figure STUV, what is the value of x? LMNO has 4.1 in and 22. in and STUV has 12.3 in
Furkat [3]
Set up a proportion:

4.1/22 = 12.3/x

Cross multiply:

4.1 * x = 22 * 12.3

4.1x = 270.6

Divide 4.1 to both sides:

x = 66

The measure of one side of a square is parentheses X +3 in parentheses inches long which pair of expressions both represent the
Svetlanka [38]

Given:

The side of a square is,

(s+3)inches

Required:

To find the perimeter of a given square.

Explanation:

In square, all the sides are equal.

Therefore, all sides are (s+3).

To find perimeter, we need to add all the sides,

Therefore,

\begin{gathered} (s+3)+(s+3)+(s+3)+(s+3) \\ =4(s+3) \end{gathered}

Final Answer:

Option (d) is correct.
