(13) Suppose you want to make a rectangular cardboard box with no top by cutting out squares
in the corners of a flat piece of cardboard, bending it up to make the sides, and taping them.
(a) If your flat piece of cardboard is 8 feet by 6 feet, give the dimensions of two different
size boxes you could make.
(b) Could you make a box with a surface area of 48 square feet? If so, what are the
dimensions? If not, why not?
(c) Could you make a box with a surface area of 32 square feet? If so, what are the
dimensions? If not, why not?
(d) If you cut a length of 2 feet out of the flat piece, what will the volume of the box be?
(e) If
you cut a length of x feet out of the flat piece, give an expression for the volume of
the box.
(f) Use a graphing device of some sort and sketch the graph of your volume equation found
above. Use the graph to answer the following question: Is it possible to make a box
whose volume is 25 cubic feet?
(b) Consider a square whose side is 1 unit. If the measure of its side is doubled, what will be its
new area as compare to the smaller square? How about if the side of the smaller square was
tripled, what will be its new area?
Create a two-way tunnel parabolic tunnel, given the dimensions, 16 feet by 34 feet, in standard and general form. There must also be a detailed computation for the number of buses with the given size that can pass through each tunnel. the bus is 8 feet by 10 feet and 4 inches.

Why don't beer companies (and soda companies) use these dimensions? h Area 2(71²) 2πr- Area (2πr) h harrow_forwardSuppose there are two rectangular pools: one is 30 feet wide, 60 feet long and 5 feet deep throughout and the other is 40 feet wide, 50 feet long and 4 feet deep throughout. Show that each pool can be considered "biggest" by comparing the sizes of the pools in two meaningful ways other than by comparing one dimensional aspects of the poolarrow_forwardAnswer the following questions for a 2 x 4 x 3 complex design - How many independent variables? - How many dependent variables? - How many main effects? - How many interactions?arrow_forward
- Present and work out a problem that would be best solved using the disk/washer method.arrow_forwardYou have 50 cm of wire, and you have to use part of this wire to make a rectangle that’s twice as long as itis wide, and the rest of the wire (if there is any left) to make a square. What should the dimensions of theshapes be if you want the total area to be as small as possible?arrow_forwardA golden rectangle is a rectangle whose length is approximately 1.6 times its width. The early Greeks thought that a rectangle with these dimensions was the most pleasing to the eye, and examples of the golden rectangle are found in many early works of art. For example, the Parthenon in Athens contains many examples of golden rectangles.arrow_forward
- Problem 3 A sheet of cardboard measuring 3 feet by 4 feet will be made into an open-topped box by cutting out equal-sized squares from the corners, and folding up the four edges. What are the dimensions of the box with the largest possible volume?

How long will it take to fill a similarly shaped swimming pool if all of the dimensions are doubled?arrow_forwardThe area of a rectangular pasture is 8750 square feet. The pasture is divided into three smaller pastures by two fences parallel to the shorter sides. The widths of two of the larger pastures are the same, and the width of the third is one-half that of the others. Find the possible dimen- sions of the original pasture if the perimeter of the smaller of the subdivisions is 190 feet.arrow_forward
