245.31 (dollars) is the cost (in dollars) of materials for the least expensive such container.

Calculus maxima and minima are found  using the concept of derivatives. Knowing that the derivative concept gives information about the slope/slope of a function, we find the point where the slope is zero. These points are called inflection points/stationary points. These are the points associated with the maximum or minimum (local) values ​​of the function.

Knowledge of maxima and minima is essential for our everyday problems. In addition, this article also explains how to find the absolute maximum and minimum values.

Solvable maximum and minimum arithmetic problems  are discussed in this article.

Suppose the width is x (m), length of the base is 2x (m), the base area is 2x^2 (m^2).

Since the volume is 10 (m^3), the height has to be 10/2x^2 (m) = 5/x^2.

The cost of making such container is

cost of base: 2x^2*15 = 30x^2

cost of sides: (2*2x*5/x^2 + 2*x*5/x^2)*9 = 270/x

The overall cost is hence the sum of the base and the sides: f(x) = 30x^2 + 270/x

The get the minimum,

df(x)/dx = 30*(2x - 9/x^2) = 0

so x = (9/2)^(1/3) = 1.651 (m)

f(x) = 245.31 (dollars)

a. In 2001, it has been calculated that the number of enrolled students that the school would have is given as 150.

b. In the academic year 2018, 468 thousand students are anticipated to enroll at the institution abroad.

The equation that would be used to get the value of the population has been given to us as follows,

y = 123.1(1.069)^x

We are to find x and use it to solve the equation.

X would be used to tell us the number of years that have passed or what lies as the difference.

in which x is the number of years that have changed.

x = 2001 - 1998 = 3

We have to input the value of x to get the value of y

y = 123.1(1.069)³

This gives us y = 150.4

Hence 150 students  would be enrolled.

b. We have to solve for the year 2018

Similarly, the difference between these years is given as:

x = 2018 - 1998 = 20

Put the value in the equation

y = 123.1 * (1.069)²⁰

Y is therefore  467.5

y ~ 468 thousand

2.  x = 360

3.  x = -41 and x = 49

4.  All real numbers.

5.  x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\begin{aligned}&\textsf{Given}: & \dfrac{x+16}{3}&=3x\\&\textsf{Multiply both sides by 3}: & x+16&=9x\\&\textsf{Subtract $x$ from both sides}: & 16&=8x\\&\textsf{Divide both sides by 8}: & x&=2\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the solution is x = 2.

[tex]\begin{aligned}&\textsf{Given}: & x &= 0.8x + 72\\&\textsf{Subtract $0.8x$ from both sides}: & 0.2x&=72\\&\textsf{Divide both sides by 0.2}: & x&=360\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the solution is x = 360.

[tex]\begin{aligned}&\textsf{Given}: & \dfrac{1}{5}|x-4|-3&=6\\&\textsf{Add 3 to both sides}: & \dfrac{1}{5}|x-4|&=9\\&\textsf{Multiply both sides by 5}: &|x-4|&=45 \\\end{aligned}[/tex]

Set the contents of the absolute value equal to both the positive and negative value of the number on the other side of the equation, and solve both equations.

What is unitary method?

It is a method where we find the value of a single unit from the value of multiple units and the value of multiple units from the value of a single unit.

Steps to Use Unitary Method

First, let us make a note of the information we have. There are 5 ice-creams.

5 ice-creams cost is $125.

Step 1: Let's find the cost of 1 ice cream.

In order to do that, divide the total cost of ice-creams by the total number of ice-creams.

The cost of 1 ice-cream = Total cost of ice-creams/Total number of ice-

creams = 125/5 = 25.

Therefore, the cost of 1 ice cream is $25.

Step 2: To find the cost of 3 ice-creams, multiply the cost of 1 ice cream by the number of ice-creams.

The cost of 3 ice-creams is cost of 1 ice-cream × number of ice-creams = 25 × 3 = $75.

Finally, we have the cost of 3 ice-creams i.e. $75.

lemonade: tea : total

1                 1    1+1=2

We need a total of 16 and divide it

= 16/2 = 8

Then the composition will be

lemonade:    tea:        total

1*8 = 8      1*8 = 8      2*8 = 16

$2 more is Addison’s holiday hourly rate than her regular hourly rate

What are Time and Work?

According to fundamental mathematical concepts, time may be described as the amount of time that a specific activity occurs, whereas work can be described as the collection of actions carried out in order to attain a specific activity or outcome. It should go without saying that time is needed to accomplish a task. It implies that time and work have a certain relationship.

The task completed is calculated as the sum of the number of people participating in the work and the number of days it took to finish. The fundamental time and work equation is W = N X D.

W is the amount of work done.

N is the number of people.

D is the number of days or hours needed.

Let r be the regular rate and h the holiday rate.

Then you can write these two equations:

From the first statement:

188.50 = 5h + 16r

From the second statement:

254.00 = 8h + 20r.

There you have a system of two independent equations with two variables, which you can solve by several methods.

If you multiply the first by 8 and the second by 5, you get:

40h + 128r = 1508

40h + 100r = 1270

Subtract the second equation from the first one:

28r = 238

Divide by 28

r = 238/28 = 8.5

You can use now any of the two original statements to find h

254.00 = 8h + 20r

8h = 254 -20(8.5) = 84

h = 84/8 = 10.5

h - r = 10.50 - 8.50 = 2.00

The holiday hourly rate is $2.00 more than the regular hourly rate.

Hence,

$2 more is Addison’s holiday hourly rate than her regular hourly rate

A storage shed is to be built in the shape of a box with a square base. It is to have a volume of cubic feet.

The dimensions of the most economical shed are height = 10 ft and side 5 ft

Taken data

volume = 250 cubic feet

base costs = $4 per square​ foot

material for the roof costs =  ​$6 per square​ foot

material for the sides costs = ​$2.50 per square foot

to find out the dimensions of the most economical shed solution

let us consider length of side x and height is h

so we can say x²h = 250

and h = 250 / x²

now cost of material  = cost of base + cost top + cost 4 side

cost  = x²(4) + x²(6)  + 4xh (2.5)

cost = 10  x² + 10xh

put here h = 250 / x²

cost = 10  x² + 10x (250/ x² )

cost = 10  x² +  (2500/ x )

if we differentiate and we get

c' = 20 x - 2500 / x²

put c' = 0 solve x

20 x - 2500 / x²  = 0

x = 5

so we say one side is 5 ft  base

and height is  h = 250 / x²

h = 250 / 5²

height = 10 ft

Hence the answer is, the dimensions of the most economical shed are height = 10 ft and side 5 ft

To solve an inequality containing an absolute value, isolate the absolute value on one side of the inequality:

The pair of polygons in the diagram are not similar.

What are polygons?

A closed polygonal chain made up of a finite number of straight-line segments is what defines a polygon in geometry. A polygon can be defined as a region that is circumscribed by a bounding circuit, a plane, or both. The edges or sides of a polygon circuit are its segments.

Solution Explained:

Similar polygons have proportional matching sides and all corresponding angles that are congruent.

Since the polygons' side lengths ensure that they are parallelograms, the congruence of just one pair of related angles is sufficient to guarantee the congruence of all the others.

The ratio of side lengths in the left polygon is 13/8, whereas in the right polygon it is 5.2/2.4, which equals 13/6. The matching sides are NOT proportionate since their ratios are different from one another.
