Answer:

340 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we can find the length of the hypotenuse.

-> See attached for a visual I drew

First, we need to convert 100 yards into feet.

-> 100 * 3 = 300 feet

300² + 160² = c²

90,000 + 25,600 = c²

115,600 = c²

$\sqrt{115,600}$ = c

340 = c

c = 340 feet

An open-top box is being designed by cutting a corner piece out of a 16" by 14" piece of metal and folding the sides upwards. Th

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

The strip of 16 by 14 inches.

Let x be the corner of the square cut

Then the box would have height as x, length 16-2x and width 14-2x

Hence volume =

Use derivative to test to find x for maximum volume

V'(x) =

v"(x) =

Equate first derivative to 0

Solutions are

x= 2.483 and x = 7.517

Practically cutting more than 7 inches is not possible from 14 inches dimention

Hence 2.483 is the side of square and maximum volume

= 247.508

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps!
