The base of an aquarium with given volume V is made of slate and the sides are made of glass. If slate costs five times as much (per unit area) as glass, find the dimensions of the aquarium that minimize the cost of the materials. (Let x, y, and z be the dimensions of the aquarium. Enter your answer in terms of V.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The dimensions of the aquarium that minimize the cost of the materials:

[tex]x=y=\sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{5}}\\z=\sqrt[3]{\frac{25V}{4}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x, y and z be the dimensions of aquarium .

Surface area of an aquarium = xy+2yz+2xz

Volume of aquarium V=[tex]Length \times Breadth \times Height=xyz[/tex]  ----A

We are given that slate costs five times as much (per unit area) as glass

So, Cost function : C=5xy+2yz+2xz

Now we will use langrage multiplier to find the dimensions of the aquarium that minimize the cost of the materials.

[tex]\nabla C =\lambda \nabla V[/tex]

[tex](\frac{\partial C}{\partial x},\frac{\partial C}{\partial y},\frac{\partial C}{\partial z})= \lambda (\frac{\partial V}{\partial x},\frac{\partial V}{\partial y},\frac{\partial V}{\partial z})[/tex]

[tex](5y+2z,5x+2z,2y+2x)=\lambda(yz,xz,xy)[/tex]

So,

[tex]5y+2z=\lambda yz[/tex]   ----1

[tex]5x+2z=\lambda xz[/tex] -----2

[tex]2y+2x=\lambda xy[/tex]  ----3

Multiply 1 ,2 and 3 by x,y and z respectively.

[tex]5xy+2xz=\lambda xyz[/tex]   ----4

[tex]5xy+2yz=\lambda xyz[/tex] -----5

[tex]2yz+2xz=\lambda xyz[/tex]   ----6

Now equate 4 and 5

5xy+2xz=5xy+2yz

x=y

Substitute y=x in 5 and 6 and equate them

[tex]5x(x)+2(x)z=2(x)z+2xz\\5x^2=2xz\\5x=2z\\\frac{5}{2}x=z[/tex]

Substitute the values in A

[tex]V = xyz = x \times x \times \frac{5}{2}xV=\frac{5}{2}x^3\\\sqrt[3]{\frac{2}{5}V}=x\\x=y=\sqrt[3]{\frac{2}{5}V}\\z=\frac{5}{2}x=\frac{5}{2}(\sqrt[3]{\frac{2}{5}})=\sqrt[3]{\frac{25V}{4}}[/tex]

Hence,

The dimensions of the aquarium that minimize the cost of the materials:

[tex]x=y=\sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{5}}\\z=\sqrt[3]{\frac{25V}{4}}[/tex]

Find the equation of a line perpendicular to 4x - y = 2 that contains the point (4, -2). Write the equation in slope.
intercept form.

Answers

Answer:

y = -1/4x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, put the equation in slope intercept form:

4x - y = 2

4x - 2 - y = 0

4x - 2 = y

y = 4x - 2

Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes. Since the original slope is 4, the other line's slope will be -1/4

Plug in the given point and the slope into y = mx + b, then solve for b:

y = mx + b

-2 = -1/4(4) + b

-2 = -1 + b

-1 = b

Plug in the slope and b into the equation:

y = -1/4x - 1 is the equation

Meredith scores a 72% on her quiz. She
misses 7 questions. What is the change in
her score in percentage points for each
question she gets incorrect?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total percent is 100%. You subtract 100% with 72% which is 28. Then, you divide 28 with 7 and voila! The answer is 4.

The change in  her score in percentage points for each question she gets incorrect is 4%.

Using this formula

Change in score percentage=(100%-Scores %)/Number of missed questions

Where:

Scores %=72%

Number of missed questions=7 questions

Let plug in the formula

Change in score percentage=(100%-72%)/7

Change in score percentage=28%/7

Change in score percentage=4%

Inconclusion  the change in  her score in percentage points for each question she gets incorrect is 4%.

th term rule of the linear sequence 13 7 1 -5 -11​

Answers

Answer:

-53, f(n) = -6(n-1) + 13

Step-by-step explanation:

given the equation to this linear/arithmetic sequence for the nth term: f(n) = -6(n-1) + 13

f(12) = -6(12-1) + 13

f(12) = -6(11) + 13

f(12) = -66 + 13

f(12) = -53

*substitute and simplify*

______________

f(n) = f(1) + d(n-1)

given f(1) = 13, f(2) = 7, and f(3) = 1

7-13 = 1-7 = -6 = d

= f(1) + d(n-1)

f(1) = 13 so

the equation must be f(n) = 13 - 6(n-1) or -6(n-1) + 13

A submarine descends to a depth of 600 feet below the surface in 10 minutes. At this rate, what integer represents the change, in feet, of the submarine's position after one minute?
I really need help.​

Answers

A submarine descends to a depth of 600 feet below the surface in 10 minutes. At this rate, what integer represents the change, in feet, of the submarine's position after one minute?

First you need to list what you're given.

A submarine descends to a depth of 600 ft below the surface in 10 minutes. The question is asking for the change of the submarine's position after one minute. This can be represented as fractions in terms of [tex]\frac{distance}{time}[/tex].

[tex]\frac{600}{10} = \frac{x}{1}[/tex]

You're looking for the value of x. First you need to cross-multiply.

[tex]600 \times 1 = 10 \times x\\600=10x[/tex]

Since you're looking for x alone, you need to divide both sides by 10. This will eliminate the 10 since x is being multiplied by 10, and 10 divided by 10 is 1, making it 1x or x.

[tex]\frac{600}{10} = \frac{10x}{10}[/tex]

[tex]60=x[/tex]

That means the submarine is descending at a rate of 60 feet per minute, which can be represented as -60.

If you're looking for the submarine's position after one minute, all you have to do is subtract 60.

600 feet below surface is represented as -600.

[tex]-600-60=-660[/tex]

The submarine's position after one minute is 660 feet below surface(-660).
