Ted practices two types of swimming styles for a total of 50 minutes every day. he spends 20 minutes more practicing the breast

cluponka [151]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

butterfly = x minutes

breast = y minutes

total is 50 minutes

breast stroke = butterfly +20

Part A

x+y = 50

y = x+20

Part B

Substitute the second equation into the first

x+ (x+20) = 50

2x+20 = 50

2x+20-20 = 50-20

2x = 30

2x/2 = 30/2

x = 15

y = x+20

y = 20+15

y = 35 minutes

35 minutes on the breast stroke

Part C

45 minutes on the butterfly is not reasonable

We only have a total of 50 minutes

50-45 = 5

But he spend more time on the breast stroke ( 20 minutes more), but if he spend 45 minutes on the butterfly, he would have to spend less on the breast stroke.

An open box is to be constructed so that the length of the base is 3 times larger than the width of the base. If the cost to con

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let assume that the volume = 88 cubic feet

Then:

$L = 3w --- (1)volume = l \times w \times h \\ \\ 88 = (3w) \times w \times h \\ \\ 3w^2 h= 88 \\ \\ h = \dfrac{88}{3w^2}--- (2) \\ \\$

The construction cost now is:

$C = 4(l \times w) + 2 ( w \times h) + 2(l \times h) \\ \\ C = 4(3w^2) + 2(w \times \dfrac{88}{3w^2}) + 2(3w \times \dfrac{88}{3w^2}) \\\\ C = 12w^2 + \dfrac{176}{3w} + \dfrac{176}{w}$

Now, to determine the minimum cost:

$\dfrac{dC}{dw}= 0 \\ \\ \implies 24 w - \dfrac{176}{3w^2}- \dfrac{176}{w^2}=0 \\ \\ 24 w ^3 = \dfrac{176}{w^2}(\dfrac{1}{3}+1) \\ \\ 24 w ^3 = \dfrac{176(4)}{3} \\ \\ w^3 = \dfrac{88}{3(3)}$
