A rectangular storage container with an open top is to have a volume of 10m3. Thelength of its base is twice the width. Material
frutty [35]

Answer:

$163.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of rectangular container = 10m^3

Length = 2(width)

Material for the base cost $10 per square meter

Material for the side cost $6 per square meter

Volume = L*B*H

L= 2W

V = (2W).W. H

10 = 2W^2.H

H = 10 /2W^2

H = 5/W^2

Let C(w) = cost function

C(w) = 10(L.W) + 6(2.L.H + 2.W.H)

= 10(2W.W) + 6(2.2W.H + 2.W.H)

= 10(2W^2) + 6(4W.H + 2.W.H)

= 10(2W^2) + 6(4W*5/W^2 + 2.W*5/W^2)

= 20W^2 + 6(20/W + 10/W)

= 20W^2 + 6((10+20)/W)

= 20W^2 + 6(30/W)

C(w) = 20W^2 + 180/W

To find the minimum value, differentiate C with respect to w

C'(w) = 40W - 180/W^2

Put C'(w) = 0

0 = 40W - 180/W^2

40W = 180/W^2

40W^3 = 180

W^3 = 180/40

W^3 = 4.5

W = cube rt(4.5)

W = 1.65m

C = 20(1.65)^2 + 180/1.65

C = 54.45 + 109.09

C= $163.54

Minimum cost = $163.54

Talia wants to write the equation of the graphed line in point-slope form. These are the steps she plans to use:
mezya [45]
From the steps Talia chooses to find the equation of the line, we shall evaluate the incorrect step as follows:
Step 1:
Choose a point in the line such as (2,5)
Step 2:
<span>Choose another point on the line, such as (1, 3)
step 3:
</span><span>Count units to determine the slope ratio. The line runs 1 unit to the right and rises 2 units up, so the slope is. 
(5-3)/(2-1)=2/2=1
step 4:
</span><span> Substitute those values into the point-slope form
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-3=2(x-1)
y=2x+1
Thus the answer is:
</span><span>Step 4 is incorrect because it shows an incorrect substitution of (1, 3) into the point-slope form</span>

A semicircular flower bed has a diameter of 3 metres. What is the area of the flower bed?
Yuri [45]

The area of circle is

A_{\text{circle}}=\pi r^2.

Then the area of semicircular region is

A_{\text{semicircular region}}=\dfrac{1}{2} \pi r^2.

If r=3 m, you have

A_{\text{semicircular region}}=\dfrac{1}{2} \pi \cdot 3^2=\dfrac{9\pi}{2}=4.5\pi \approx 14.13 sq. m.

Answer: A_{\text{semicircular region}}=4.5\pi \approx 14.13 sq. m.

A gardener has 640 feet of fencing to fence in a rectangular garden. One side of the garden is bordered by a river and so it doe
kari74 [83]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • 160 ft (out from the river)
  • 320 ft (parallel to the river)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the length of fence parallel to the river. Then the dimension of perpendicular to the river will be half the remaining fence: (640-x)/2. The total area will be ...

  A = x(640-x)/2

This is the equation of a parabola that opens downward. It has zeros at x=0 and x=640, so its axis of symmetry is x = (0+640)/2 = 320. That is, the peak of the area curve is found when x=320.

The dimensions of the garden with the largest area are 160 ft wide by 320 ft long, where the long side is the river side.
