Answer:

Jackson s reasoning is incorrect this because if we multiply with numbers smaller than zero what we get is a smaller number: 54•0.2=27 etc...

Answer: There are two cases at least that show that Jackson's reasoning is wrong: Multiplying decimals and factions less than one by themselves.

Multiplying a Negative number times a positive number will also produce a product that is less than the factors.

Step-by-step explanation: Fractions times fractions

1/2 × 1/2 = 1/4 A fraction multiplied by itself always yields a smaller product. 1/3×1/3 =1/9

3/8 × 3/4 = 9/32 9/32 is smaller than 3/8 (12/32) and 3/4 (24/32)

1/12 × 9/10 = 9/120 thats 3/40 . To compare, change to decimals, use a calculator to divide the numerator by the denominator. 1/12 is 0.083333

3/40 is 0.075000

Decimals times decimals

.5 × .5 = .25 .75 × .75 = .5625

Negative numbers

55 × -5 = -275 . 2 ×-5 = -10

What is the product?

The correct product of (6x - 2)(6 x + 2) is 36x^2 - 4

<h3>How to determine the product?</h3>

The expression is given as:

(6x - 2)(6 x + 2).

The above expression is a difference of two squares.

And this is represented as

(a - b)(a + b)= a^2 - b^2

So, we have

(6x - 2)(6 x + 2) = (6x)^2 - 2^2

Evaluate

(6x - 2)(6 x + 2) = 36x^2 - 4

Hence, the correct product of (6x - 2)(6 x + 2) is 36x^2 - 4

A rectangular solid with a square base has a volume of 4096 cubic inches - determine the dimensions that yield the minimum surfa

Bumek [7]

Answer:

side of base, a = 10.1 inches, height, h = 40.1 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of rectangular solid, V = 4096 cubic inches

Let the side of base is a and the height is h.

$V = a^2h\\\\4096 = a^2 h ..... (1)$

surface area of the solid

$S = 2a^2 + 4 ah \\\\S = 2a^2 + 4 \times a \times \frac{4096}{a^2} from (1)\\\S = 2a^2 + \frac{4096}{a}\\\\\frac{dS}{da}= 4 a - \frac{4096}{a^2}\\\\4 a - \frac{4096}{a^2} = 0 \\\\a^3 = 1024\\\\a =10.1 inches$

So, h = 40.2 inches
