Answer:

The expression that can be used to find the volume of the cardboard box is:

(4−2x)(2−2x)x

Step-by-step explanation:

A box without a top is made from a rectangular piece of cardboard, with dimensions 4 m by 2 m, by cutting out square corners with side length x.

i.e. the box is in the shape of a cuboid.

Now the volume of a box is same as the volume of a cuboid.

We know that the volume of a cuboid is given as:

Volume of cuboid=Length×Breadth×Height.

So, the length of the cuboid box is: 4-2x

and the width of the box is: 2-2x

Also, the height of box is: x

Hence, the volume of cuboid is:

Volume=(4-2x)\times (2-2x)\times x\\\\Volume=(4-2x)(2-2x)x

Hence, the expression for the volume of cuboid box is:

             (4−2x)(2−2x)x

Let f(x)=18/1+3^e-0.1x What is the point of maximum growth rate for the logistic function f(x)? Show all work. Round your answer
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

(0, 4.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

*The equation can be put into Desmos, to find the point, but the work to prove it is here*

f(x)=c/1+Ae^-Bx

Y=C

C=18      A=3      -B=-0.1

*Replace x with 0 in the equation, so you know 0 is the x value, and it leads you to the y value*

f(0)=18/1+3e^-o.1(0)

= 18/1+3e^0

=18/1+3(1)

=18/1+3

=18/4

=4.5

x=0    y=4.5

Maximum growth rate = (x,y) --> (0, 4.5)

Hope this helps:))!!

Explain why multiplying a fraction by 5/6 results in a value that is less than the original fraction
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(5/6) itself is less than 1 (but greater than 0).  Thus, anything multiplied by (5/6) will result in a smaller-by-magnitude quantity.

For example, (5/6)(3/4) is LESS than 3/4 because 5/6 is greater than zero but less than 1.
