I took a test on this yesterday and all i know is the answer is either 81 117 or 162
Answer:
-5/2 because there is -5y/2 but we have to take coefficient only so -5/2
37 is the answer of this. Hope this helps :)
Answer:I think a is:78.3 since it would be the same and since 0 doesn't have a value.
I think b is: 139.5 because all you are doing is subtracting 287.1-147.6
Answer: You should cut out squares that are 4 inches by 4 inches.
One of the ways to do this problem is write and graph an equation. We can write an equation for the volume of this shape and then use a graphing calculator to graph it. If we look where the graph crosses 440, we will have our solution.
The volume needs to be 440. If we let x equal the side of the square that is cut out, we have the following dimensions.
Length = 19 - 2x
Width = 18 - 2x
Height = x
Volume = LWH
So our equation could be: y = (19 - 2x)(18 - 2x)x
If you graph that equation, it will intersect at the point (4, 440). Therefore, our square could be 4 by 4 inches.
