A box will be built with square base and an open top. Material for the base costs $8 square foot, while material for the side's costs $2 per square foot. Find the dimension of the box of maximum volume that can be built for $2400.​

Respuesta :

All you have to do is add it could be so simple 8$ + $2 + $2400

The height and side of the box for the maximum volume are 20 feet and 10 feet respectively.

What is area?

Area is the amount of space occupied by a two-dimensional figure.

How to calculate the area of square?

The area of square is the product of the length of each side with itself.

[tex]A = a^{2}[/tex]

Where,

A is the area of square

a is the length of the side of square

What is volume?

Volume is the measure of the capacity that an object holds.

Formula for the volume of cuboid

volume = length × breadth × height

According to the given question

We have

A box with the open top and square base.

Let x be the side of the box. And h be the height of the box

Also, the cost of material for the base is $8 and for side is $2 per square foot.

The total cost of material for the box is $2400

⇒[tex]8x^{2} + 4(2xh) = 2400[/tex]

⇒ [tex]8x^{2} + 8xh = 2400\\[/tex]

⇒[tex]x^{2} + xh = 300[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h = \frac{300-x^{2} }{x}[/tex]

Therefore,

volume of the box

[tex]= x^{2} h[/tex]

= [tex]x^{2} \frac{3000-x^{2} }{x}[/tex]

= [tex]x(300-x^{2} )[/tex]

= [tex]300x - x^{3}[/tex]

for the maximum volume,[tex]\frac{d}{dx}(v)=0[/tex]

⇒ [tex]300 - 3x^{2} =0[/tex]

⇒[tex]300 = 3x^{2}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x^{2} =100[/tex]

⇒ x = ± 10

⇒ x= 10 feet  (x = -10 not possible)

So, h = [tex]\frac{300-100}{10} = 20feet[/tex]

Hence, the height and side of the box for the maximum volume are 20 feet and 10 feet respectively.
