Answer:The bill before tax was $8.33

Step-by-step explanation: Divide tip by portion of bill:

1.80/0.20 = 9.00

The total bill before the tip was $9.00

Divide total bill by 1+ sales tax rate:

9.00 / 1.08 = 8.33

A cylindrical can without a top is made to contain 25 3 cm of liquid. What are the dimensions of the can that will minimize the

Basile [38]

Answer:

Therefore the radius of the can is 1.71 cm and height of the can is 2.72 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, the volume of cylindrical can with out top is 25 cm³.

Consider the height of the can be h and radius be r.

The volume of the can is V= $\pi r^2h$

According to the problem,

$\pi r^2 h=25$

$\Rightarrow h=\frac{25}{\pi r^2}$

The surface area of the base of the can is = $\pi r^2$

The metal for the bottom will cost $2.00 per cm²

The metal cost for the base is =$(2.00× $\pi r^2$ )

The lateral surface area of the can is = $2\pi rh$

The metal for the side will cost $1.25 per cm²

The metal cost for the base is =$(1.25× $2\pi rh$ )

$=\$2.5 \pi r h$

Total cost of metal is C= 2.00 $\pi r^2$ + $2.5 \pi r h$

Putting $h=\frac{25}{\pi r^2}$

$\therefore C=2\pi r^2+2.5 \pi r \times \frac{25}{\pi r^2}$

$\Rightarrow C=2\pi r^2+ \frac{62.5}{ r}$

Differentiating with respect to r

$C'=4\pi r- \frac{62.5}{ r^2}$

Again differentiating with respect to r

$C''=4\pi + \frac{125}{ r^3}$

To find the minimize cost, we set C'=0

$4\pi r- \frac{62.5}{ r^2}=0$

$\Rightarrow 4\pi r=\frac{62.5}{ r^2}$

$\Rightarrow r^3=\frac{62.5}{ 4\pi}$

⇒r=1.71

Now,

$\left C''\right|_{x=1.71}=4\pi +\frac{125}{1.71^3}>0$

When r=1.71 cm, the metal cost will be minimum.

Therefore,

$h=\frac{25}{\pi\times 1.71^2}$

⇒h=2.72 cm

Therefore the radius of the can is 1.71 cm and height of the can is 2.72 cm.

Help ASAP 50 pomits because i need help in 4 points.

Orlov [11]

9. The slope for this one is 21 bc y1-y2/x1-x2 is the slope formula and this can be used between any two points (I used the first two) -30-(-54)/ 7-11 which is -84/-4= 21

10. Rate of change is the same thing as slope so 4.5-5/18-20 which is -0.5/-2 which means the rate of change is 2.5

11. 23-39/1-3 which is -16/-2 which means the rate of change is 8

12. 5/4 is 1.25 so the sports drink costs 1.25$ each

Hope this helped :)
