Answer:
you can just look it up
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
b = 4.6 ft
h = 2.3 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the tank is given by:
Where 'b' is the length of the each side of the square base, and 'h' is the height of the tank.
The surface area can be written as:
The value of b for which the derivate of the expression above is zero is the value that yields the minimum surface area:
The value of h is then:
Rounded to the nearest tenth, the dimensions are b = 4.6 ft and h = 2.3 ft.
This is relatively easy because that 25 is a perfect square, whose (square) roots are 5 and -5. x^2-10x+25 = (x - 5)(x - 5). Note how (-5)(-5) = +25, and how -5x - 5x = -10x.
The roots are { (x-5), (x-5) }.
Pr(1/2) for both I believe. If not right sorry.
