An aquarium with a square base has no top. There is a metal frame. Glass costs 5 dollars/m2 and the frame costs 2 dollars/m. The volume is to be 20 m3. Express the total cost in terms of the height ℎ in meters. (Hint: work out the cost of the glass and frame separately.)

C = 420/h + 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s be the side of the square base.

Let h be the height

Volume = s*h

20 = s*h

s = 20/h

Cost of glass is

5(20/h) + 5(4* h*20/h)

= 100/h + 400

Cost of frame is

2*4(20/h) + 2*4(20/h)

= 160/h + 160/h

= 320/h

Total cost = C

C = cost of glass + cost of frame

C = 100/h + 400 + 320/h

C = 420/h + 400

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6

your answer is 228

step-by-step explanation:

add the top and bottom bases together, then divide them by 2, then multiply by the height.
