The dimension of the box is 50in by 10in by 15in

<h3>How to calculate the volume of a figure</h3>

The volume of an object is the quantity of substance it contains.

The formula for calculating the volume of the box is expressed as:

V = lwh

where:

  • l is the length
  • w is the width
  • h is the height

Given the following parameters

length = 5w
height = w + 5

Substiute

7500 = 5w(w)(w+5)
7500 = 5w²(w+5)
1500 = w³+5w²
w³+5w² - 1500 = 0

<u>Factorize to determine the width</u>

On factorizing, the width of the box is 10 inches

Recall that:

l = 5w
l = 5(10)

l = 50inches

<u>Get the height</u>

h = w + 5
h = 10 + 5
h = 15inches

Hence the dimension of the box is 50in by 10in by 15in

A point is refected across the x-axis. The new point is (5,-3.5).What is the distance between the two points?
Vesna [10]
When a point is reflected across the x-axis, it's y value is flipped. Here is a formula for your future reference:

X-axis reflection: (x,-y)

Using your given coordinates, you simply plug the numbers in, resulting in final coordinates of (5,3.5).

Because the problem asks for the distance between the two points, you now have to find the difference between -3.5 and 3.5, which is 7.

There you go; the distance between the points is 7 units.

You have something resembling a Riemann sum. Multiply through the summand by 1/n², then you can write

\displaystyle \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac1n \sum_{r=0}^{2n-1} \frac{1}{1+4\left(\frac rn\right)^2} = \int_0^2 \frac{dx}{1+4x^2} = \boxed{\frac12 \tan^{-1}(4)}
