An open box is to be made out of a 6-inch by 14-inch piece of cardboard by cutting out squares of equal size from the four corne
lawyer [7]

Answer:

The dimensions of the resulting box that has the largest volume is 1.3 inches x 1.3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Card board size is L= 14 inches and

W = 6 inches

Let x be the size of equal squares cut from 4 corners and bent into a box whose size is now;

L = 14 − 2x , W = 6 −2x and h = x inches.

Volume of the box is given as;

V = (14 −2x)(6−2x)x

V =(4x² − 40x + 84)x

= 4x³ − 40x² + 84x.

Now, for the maximum value,

dV/dx =0

Thus,

dv/dx = 12x² - 80x + 84 = 0

Using quadratic formula

x = [-(-80) ± √(-80²) - 4(12 x 84)]/(2 x 12)

x = [80 ± √(6400 - 4032)]/24

x = (80 + 48.66)/24 or (80-48.66)/24

x = 5.36 or 1.31

Looking at the two values, 1.31 would be more appropriate because if we use 5.36,we will get a negative value of the width (W).

Thus, x = 1.31 inches

Let us use the Second Derivative Test to verify that V has a local maximum at x = 1.31.

Thus;

d²v/dx² = 24x - 80 = 24(1.31) - 80 = -48.56

This is less than 0 and therefore, the volume of the box is maximized when a 1.31 inch by 1.3 inch square is cut from the corners of the cardboard sheet.

For this case we have the following function:
 <span>w (x) = - 5 (x-8) (x + 4)
 </span><span>Rewriting we have:
 </span><span>w (x) = - 5 (x ^ 2 + 4x - 8x - 32)
 </span><span>w (x) = - 5x ^ 2 - 20x + 40x + 160
 </span><span>w (x) = - 5x ^ 2 + 20x + 160
 </span><span>Then, deriving we have:
 </span><span>w '(x) = - 10x + 20
 </span><span>We equal zero and clear x:
 </span><span>0 = -10x + 20
 </span><span>10x = 20
 </span><span>x = 20/10
 </span><span>x = 2 seconds
 </span><span>Substituting values:
 </span><span>w (2) = - 5 (2-8) (2 + 4)
 </span><span>w (2) = - 5 (-6) (6)
 </span><span>w (2) = 180 meters
 </span>Answer:
 
The maximum height that the stone will reach is:
 
w (2) = 180 meters

daser333 [38]

Answer:

12/17

Step-by-step explanation:

total number of marbles that are purple (11) plus the total number of marbles that are not small (15) minus the number of marbles that are both purple and not small (2)

11 + 15 - 2 = 24

over the total number of marbles (34)

24/34 simplifies to 12/17
