Answer:
√145 ≈ 12.04
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the space diagonal is the root of the sum of the squares of the prism edge lengths:
d² = a² +b² +c² = 6² +3² +10² = 145
d = √145 ≈ 12.04 . . . inches
__
The face diagonal is found using the Pythagorean theorem in the usual way:
f² = a² + b²
The space diagonal is the hypotenuse of the right triangle whose sides are the face diagonal and the remaining edge:
d² = f² +c²
d² = a² +b² +c²

Here is a diagram.
The answer is the third one :)
Usually one will differentiate the function to find the minimum/maximum point, but in this case differentiating yields:
which contains multiple solution if one tries to solve for x when the differentiated form is 0.
I would, though, venture a guess that the minimum value would be (approaching) 5, since the function would be undefined in the vicinity.
If, however, the function is
Then differentiating and equating to 0 yields:
which gives:
or
We reject x=5 as it is when it ix the maximum and thus,
, for
I know this is a little weird but the answer is <u>1.34</u> buses.
You need to divide 67 by 50.
Hope I helped and good luck!
