Because none of the points on the number line are above 0, we know that the points will be negative.
This eliminates the second and third choices, as they contain positive numbers.
The first point, A, is a number less than -0.5 or -1/2
The first choice matches A with -5/16, which is less than -0.5 or -1/2
Therefore, the fourth choice must be the correct answer.

A box with no top is to be constructed from a piece of cardboard whose length measures 12 inches more than its width. The box is

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Width is 12 inches and height is 4 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the piece of cardboard be = w inches

Then length is = $w+12$ inches

As given, 4 inch squares are cut from each corner;

So, the width is = $w-8$ inches

Length is = $w+12-8=w+4$ inches

When we are folding the cut portion, that gives the height as = 4 inches

The volume is given by : length x width x height

And volume is given as 256 cubic inches

So, $256=(w+4)(w-8)(4)$

=> $256=(w^{2}-4w-32)4$

=> $64=(w^{2}-4w-32)$

=> $w^{2} -4w=96$

or $w^{2} -4w-96=0$

=> $w^{2} -12w+8w-96=0$

=> $w(w-12)+8(w-12)=0$

We get , $(w+8)=0$ ; w = -8(neglect the negative value)

$(w-12)=0$ ; w = 12 inches

And length = $12+12=24$ inches

Hence, dimensions are : L = 24 inches ; w = 12 inches and h = 4 inches

We can check by putting these values in equation : $256=(w+4)(w-8)(4)$

$256=(12+4)(12-8)(4)$

=> $256=(16)(4)(4)$

=> $256=256$
