Answer:

425 bolts

Step-by-step explanation:

255/24=x/40

cross product

24*x=255*40

24x=10200

x=10200/24

x=425

It could produce 425 bolts in 40 minutes.

First I found the unit rate by doing 255/24=10.625

Then I just multiplied that by 40 and got the answer.

A box with no top is to be constructed from a piece of cardboard whose length measures 88 in. more than its width. the box is to

MariettaO [177]

Let x be the width of the cardboard (which means the length of the cardboard is x+88), then the dimensions of the box are:

Length = [(x + 88) - 2(33)]

Width = x - 2(33)

Heighth = 33

Volume = length · width · heighth

144,144 = [(x + 88) - 2(33)] · [x - 2(33)] · 33

144,144 = (x+22)(x-66)(33)

4368 = (x+22)(x-66)

4368 = x² - 44x - 1452

0 = x² - 44x - 5820

use the quadratic formula to calculate that x = 101

Answer: cardboard width = 101, cardboard length = 189

Given the function f(x) = 2|x + 6| – 4, for what values of x is f(x) = 6?

lara [203]

Answer:

x = -1 , - 11,

Step-by-step explanation:

| x | = x

|- x | = x

f(x) = 2 | x + 6 | - 4

x = - 1 , f( - 1) = 2 | - 1 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 5 | - 4 = 10 - 4 = 6 , True

x = 1 , f( 1 ) = 2 | 1 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 7 | - 4 = 14 - 4 = 10 , False

x = 11, f( 11 ) = 2 | 11 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 17 | - 4 = 34 - 4 = 30 , False

x = - 11, f( - 11) = 2 | -11 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | - 5 | - 4 = 10 - 4 = 6 , True

x = 14 , f( 14 ) = 2 | 14 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 20 | - 4 = 40 - 4 = 36 , False

x = -14 , f( - 14 ) = 2 | - 14 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | - 8 | - 4 = 16 - 4 = 12 , False

x = - 26 , f( - 26) = 2 | -26 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | -20 | - 4 = 40 - 4 = 36 , False

x = 26, f( 26 ) = 2 | 26 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 32 | - 4 = 64 - 4 = 60 , False

Given f ( x ) = 6

f( x ) = 2 | x + 6 | - 4

6 = 2 | x + 6 | - 4

6 + 4 = 2 | x + 6| - 4 + 4 [ adding 4 to both sides ]

10 = 2 | x + 6 | + 0

5 = | x + 6 | [ dividing both sides by 2 ]

$- 5 =\ ( x+ 6) \ = 5\\\\$ $[ \ | x | = a\ => \ -a \ = x \ = a \ ]$

$- 5 - 6 = \ x + 6 - 6 \ = \ 5 - 6\\$ $[ \ subtracting \ by \ 6 \ ]$

$-11 = \ x \ = - 1$
