-2x + 5x -2x = 1 - 7
-4x + 5x = -5
-1x = -5
Then x = 5 not 6 :)

First of all, I collect like terms by rearranging coefficient with variables to one side plus
Rules;
1. When moving a coefficient (number ) the sign changes

I need the function for the volume of the box for number 1
rjkz [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectanguiar shape like this one is V = L * W * H, where the letters represent Length, Width and Height.  Here L is the longest dimension and is 28 - 2x; W is the width and is 22-2x; and finally, x is the height.  Thus, the volume of this box must be

V(x) = (28 - 2x)*(22 - 2x)*x

and we want to maximize V(x).  

One way of doing that is to graph V(x) and look for any local maximum of the graph.  We'd want to determine the value of x for which V(x) is a maximum.

Another way, for those who know some calculus, is to use the first and second derivatives to identify the value of  x at which V is at a maximum.

I have provided the function that you requested.  If you'd like for us to go all the way to a solution, please repost your question.
