A box with a square base and open top must have a volume of 256000 c m 3 . We wish to find the dimensions of the box that minimize the amount of material used. First, find a formula for the surface area of the box in terms of only x , the length of one side of the square base.

Answer :

Answer:

Follows are the response to the given question:

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the box:

[tex]V = x\times x \times h = 256000 \ cm^3\\\\\to x^2 \times h = 256000\\\\\to h = \frac{256000}{x^2}[/tex]  

The surface area of the open box is:

[tex]A(x) = x \times x + 2 \times (x \times h +x \times h)\\\\A(x) = x^2 + 4 \times x \times h\\\\A(x) = x^2 + \frac{1024000}{x}\\\\\frac{d(x^n)}{dx} = n \times x^{(n - 1)}\\\\[/tex]

Use above formula

[tex]A'(x) = 2 \times x - \frac{1024000}{x^2}\\\\[/tex]

[tex]A'(x) = 0\\\\2\times x - \frac{1024000}{x^2} = 0\\\\2x = \frac{1024000}{x^2}\\\\x^3 = 512000\\\\x = (512000)^{(\frac{1}{3})} = 80\ cm\\\\[/tex]

Now

[tex]A''(x) = 2\times 1 + 2\times \frac{1024000}{x^3}\\\\A''(x) = 2 + \frac{2048000}{x^3}\\\\x = 80 \ cm\\\\A''(80) = 2 + \frac{2048000}{80^3} = 6\\\\[/tex]

therefore [tex]A"(x) > 0,[/tex] x amount of material used in minimum.

[tex]h = \frac{256000}{80^2} = 40\ cm[/tex]
