Answer:
total pages = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
60% of an unknown number is 12
Let the unknown number (total pages) be x.
60/100 of x = 12
60/100 * x = 12
3/5 x = 12
x = 12 * 5/3
x = 20
Solve each problem. Volume of a Box A piece of sheet metal is 2.5 times as long as it is wide. It is to be made into a box with an open top by cutting 3 -inch squares from each corner and folding up the sides, as shown at the top of the next page. Let x
represent the width of the original piece of sheet metal. (a) Represent the length of the original piece of sheet metal in terms of x.
(b) What are the restrictions on x?
(c) Determine a function V
that represents the volume of the box in terms of x
(d) For what values of x
(that is, original widths) will the volume of the box be between 600 and 800 cubic inches? Determine the answer graphically, and give values to the nearest tenth of an inch
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides , that is
x² + (x + 2)² = 10² ← expand parenthesis on left side and simplify
x² + x² + 4x + 4 = 100 ( subtract 100 from both sides )
2x² + 4x - 96 = 0 ( divide through by 2 )
x² + 2x - 48 = 0
(x + 8)(x - 6) = 0 ← in factored form
equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8
x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6
however, x > 0 , then x = 6
