Answer:
Height: 3/2 inches
Length: 12 inches
Width: 4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x is the side length of the square
The height of the box by cutting squares off :x
- The new length of the cardboard = 15 -2x (because we cut from 4 corners)
- The new width of the cardboard = 7 -2x (because we cut from 4 corners)
The new volume of it is:
V = (15 -2x) (7 -2x) x
<=> V =
To maximum volume, we use the first derivative of the volume
<=> 
<=> 
<=> 2x -3 = 0 or 6x -35 = 0
<=> x = 3/2 or x = 35/6
To determine which value of x gives a maximum, we evaluate
= 24x -88
= 24(3/2) -88 = -52
= 24(35/6) -88 = 52
We choose x = 3/2 to have the maximum volume because the value of x that gives a negative value is maximum.
So the dimensions (in inches) of the box is:
Height: 3/2 inches
Length: 15-2(3/2) = 12 inches
Width: 7 - 2(3/2) = 4 inches
Answer:28
Step-by-step explanation:
Re-arrange either ascending or descending order
20,22,28,32,33
The middle one is 28
Let's Re-arrange in descending
33,32,28,22,20
Same thing as the first step 28
The correct answer is the second one
Answer:
Katie needs to pay $27.9.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
Cost of per foot = $2.25
Number of flowers in her yard = 12.4 square foot
We need to find how much she needs to pay.
Solution:
Now we know that;

So for
= Cost for
.
By using Unitary method we get;
Cost for
= 
Hence Katie needs to pay $27.9.
Hope this helped! the answer is 2^7
