2/3 g + 1/2 g = 14

4/6 g + 3/6 g = 14

7/6 g = 14

7g = 84

g = 12

2/3g + 1/2g = 14

Add 2/3 and 1/2. Multiply 2/3 by 2/2 and 1/2 by 3/3 to make both fractions have common denominators.

2/3 * 2/2 = 4/6
1/2 * 3/3 = 3/6

4/6g + 3/6g = 14

Combine like terms.

7/6g = 14

Divide both sides by 7/6.

g = 14 ÷ 7/6

g = 14 × 6/7 = 84/7 = 12

g = 12

A manufacturer wants to make open tin boxes from pieces of tin with dimensions 8 in. by 15 in. by cutting equal squares from the

Stells [14]

Answer:

$\frac{5}{3}$ in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the side of square.

Length of box=8-2x

Width of box=15-2x

Height of box=x

Volume of box= $L\times B\times H$

Substitute the values then we get

Volume of box=V(x)= $(8-2x)(15-2x)x=(15x-2x^2)(8-2x)$

$V(x)=120x-30x^2-16x^2+4x^3$

$V(x)=4x^3-46x^2+120x$

Differentiate w.r.t x

$V'(x)=12x^2-92x+120$

$V'(x)=0$

$12x^2-92x+120=0$

$3x^2-23x+30=0$

$3x^2-18x-5x+30=0$

$3x(x-6)-5(x-6)=0$

$(x-6)(3x-5)=0$

$x-6=0\implies x=6$

$3x-5=0\implies x=\frac{5}{3}$

Again differentiate w.r.t x

$V''(x)=24x-92$

Substitute x=6

$V''(6)=24(6)-92=52>0$

Substitute x=5/3

$V''(5/3)=24(5/3)-92=-52$

Hence, the volume is maximum at x= $\frac{5}{3}$

Therefore, the side of the square , $x=\frac{5}{3}$ in cutout that gives the box the largest possible volume.

A function of the form f(x)=ab^x is modified so that the b value remains the same but the a value is increased by 2. How do the

ANEK [815]

Answer:

The domain and range remain the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

First, we must determine what increasing a by 2 really does to the exponential function.

In f(x)=ab^x, a represents the initial value (y-intercept) of the function while b represents the common ratio for each consecutive value of f(x).

Increasing a by 2 means moving the y-intercept of the function up by 2. If the original function contained the point (0,x), the new function would contain the point (0,x+2).

The domain remains the same; it is still the set of all real x-values. This is true for any exponential function, regardless of any transformations.

The range remains the same as well; for the original function, it would have been $y\neq 0$ . Because increasing a by 2 does not move the entire function up or down, the range remains the same.

I hope this helps!
