A cylindrical package with half a hemisphere to be sent by a postal service can have a maximum combined length (height of the cy
artcher [175]

Answer:

36 x 18 x 18

Step-by-step explanation:

By Lagrange multiplier's method,

∇f(x,y,z)= λ∇g(x,y,z) & g(x,y,z)=k

considering x,y,z as three unequal sides of the box

f(x,y,z)=xyz

If x represents the length, then constraint condition is g(x,y,z)= x + 2(y+z) =108

We have the following three equations:

yz= λ -->eq(1)               fx= λgx

xz=2λ -->eq(2)              fy=λgy

xy= 2λ -->eq(3)             fz=λgz

x+2y+2z=108-->eq(4)

Dividing eq(2) by eq(1), we'll have

x / y =2

=> x= 2y

Also, by using eq(2)and eq(3), we can represent y=z

By substituting 'x= 2y' and 'y=z' in eq(4), we have

eq(4)=>

2y+ 2(y+y)= 108

y=108/6

y=18

<u>For x: </u> x=2y=> 2(18)=>36

<u>For z: </u>z= y = 18

Therefore, the dimensions are 36 x 18 x 18

Mike and Alice recycled 147 bottles altogether. Mike recycled 6 times as many bottles as Alice. How many bottles did Alice recyc
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The number of bottles recycle by Alice is 21.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mike and Alice recycled 147 bottles altogether. Mike recycled 6 times as many bottles as Alice.

Now, to find the quantity of bottles Alice recycle.

Let the number of bottles recycle by Alice = x.

And the number of bottles recycled by Mike = 6x.

So, according to question:

x+6x=147

⇒7x=147

<em>Dividing both sides by 7 we get:</em>

⇒x=21.

Therefore, the number of bottles recycle by Alice is 21.
