The maximum value of the box is 361.186in³

Given,

In the question:

The dimension of the cardboard is given as:

Length of the cardboard is = 23

Width of the cardboard is = 13

and, squares with sides of length x

To find the volume of the largest box that can be formed in this way.

Now, According to the question:

Assume the cut-out is x.

So, the dimension of the box is:

Length = 23

Width = 13

Height = x

The volume of the box will be:

V = (23 - 2x ) (13 - 2x)x

V = 299 - 72x² + 4x³

Differentiate w.r.t to x

V = 299 - 144x + 12x²

Set to 0

V = 299 - 144x + 299 = 0

we have:

x = (2.67, 9.33)

9.33 is greater than the dimensions of the box.

So, the possible value of x is:

x = 2.67

Recall that:

V = 299 - 72x² + 4x³

So, we have:

V = 299 (2.67) - 72 (2.67)² + 4(2.67)³

Hence, the maximum value of the box is 361.186in³

The graph of an absolute value function has a vertex of (2,3) and crosses the x-axis at (−1,0) and (5,0). What is the equation f
frez [133]

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of an absolute function is

y=a|x-h|+k

where, a is a constant, (h,k) is vertex.

It is given that, vertex of an absolute function is (2,3). So, h=2 and k=3.

y=a|x-2|+3   ...(1)

It crosses the x-axis at (5,0). So put x=5 and y=0 to find the value of a.

0=a|5-2|+3

-3=3a

-1=a

Put a=-1 in (1).

y=(-1)|x-2|+3

y=-|x-2|+3

Now, put y=0, to find the equation for this absolute value function when y=0.

0=-|x-2|+3

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Determine the value of a certain number which when multipled by itself gives the same value as 567×63
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

189

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be n , then number multiplied by itself is n² and

n² = 567 × 63 = 35721 ( take square root of both sides )

n = \sqrt{35721} = 189

The area of a rectangle is 44 square feet. The base of the rectangle is 11. Find the height, then find the perimeter
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the area of a rectangle = Length times Breath

We are just going to divide your are by breadth which is

Let your length become y

= y × 11 = 44

to get your answer you move× 11 over the equal to sign which becomes ÷11 because any sign that cross the equal to sign changes which is equal to

y = 44÷11

y = 4

what i did was that i divided 44 by 11 which is equal to 4
