The dimensions and volume of the largest box formed by the 18 in. by 35 in. cardboard are;
- Width ≈ 8.89 in., length ≈ 24.89 in., height ≈ 4.55 in.
- Maximum volume of the box is approximately 1048.6 in.³
<h3>How can the dimensions and volume of the box be calculated?</h3>
The given dimensions of the cardboard are;
Width = 18 inches
Length = 35 inches
Let <em>x </em>represent the side lengths of the cut squares, we have;
Width of the box formed = 18 - 2•x
Length of the box = 35 - 2•x
Height of the box = x
Volume, <em>V</em>, of the box is therefore;
V = (18 - 2•x) × (35 - 2•x) × x = 4•x³ - 106•x² + 630•x
By differentiation, at the extreme locations, we have;

Which gives;

6•x² - 106•x + 315 = 0

Therefore;
x ≈ 4.55, or x ≈ -5.55
When x ≈ 4.55, we have;
V = 4•x³ - 106•x² + 630•x
Which gives;
V ≈ 1048.6
When x ≈ -5.55, we have;
V ≈ -7450.8
The dimensions of the box that gives the maximum volume are therefore;
- Width ≈ 18 - 2×4.55 in. = 8.89 in.
- Length of the box ≈ 35 - 2×4.55 in. = 24.89 in.
- The maximum volume of the box, <em>V </em><em> </em>≈ 1048.6 in.³

The answer is 6x. You divide 42 by 7. Take out the x. 42 divided by 7 will equal 6.
We can say that:
8x = -2ax
8 = -2a
a = -4
22y = - 2by
22 = -2b
b = -11
37 = a² + b² - r²
37 = (-4)² + (-11)² - r²
r² = 16 + 121 - 37
r² = 100
r = 10
With all this information, we can say that:
The center of the circle is: (-4 ; -11)
and the radius of the circle is r = 10
P.S:
(a - x)² + (b-y)² = r²
a² - 2ax + x² + b² -2by + y² - r² = 0
x² + y² -2ax - 2by + a² + b² - r² = 0
Answer:
They charged <u>$6</u> for washing and <u>$2</u> for vacuuming the car.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the charge of washing a car be 'x'.
And also let the charge of vacuuming a car be 'y'.
Now according to question, Trisha raised $38 washing 5 cars and vacuuming 4 cars.
So framing the above sentence in equation form, we get;

Again according to question, Byron raises $28 by washing 4 cars and vacuuming 2 cars.
So framing the above sentence in equation form, we get;

Now multiplying equation 2 by '2', we get;

Now we subtract equation 1 from equation 3 and get;

Now substituting the value of 'x' in equation 1, we get;

Hence They charged <u>$6</u> for washing and <u>$2</u> for vacuuming the car.
