Answer:
Hey there!
a)
10x-1=4x+2
6x-1=2
6x=3
x=1/2 cm.
10x-1=4 cm.
So the width of the rectangle is 10/4, or 2.5 cm.
b)
l=3w
2l+2w=24
2(3w)+2w=24
6w+2w=24
8w=24
w=3
l=9
The are is 27 units squared.
Let me know if this helps :)
Answer:
-7.8k - 7.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute 0.6 to the terms in the parentheses:
0.6(-13k - 12)
-7.8k - 7.2
So, the simplified expression is -7.8k - 7.2
Answer:
500
Step-by-step explanation:
It's a box with a square base, so let's say the width and length are x and the height is y.
The surface area of the box without the top is:
A = x² + 4xy
300 = x² + 4xy
The volume of the box is:
V = x²y
Solve for y in the first equation and substitute into the second:
y = (300 − x²) / 4x
V = x² (300 − x²) / 4x
V = x (300 − x²) / 4
V = 75x − ¼ x³
To optimize V, find dV/dx and set to 0:
dV/dx = 75 − ¾ x²
0 = 75 − ¾ x²
x = 10
So the volume of the box is:
V = 75x − ¼ x³
V = 500
The maximum volume is 500 cm³.
