A designer is creating various open-top boxes by cutting four equally-sized squares from the corners of a standard sheet of 8.5

inch by 11 inch paper, and then folding up and securing the resulting 'flaps' to be the sides of the box. Let x represent the varying side length of the square cutouts in inches. Let l , w , and h represent the varying length, width and height of the box (in inches), respectively. Note that the width and length dimensions are such that w < l . Let V represent the varying volume of the box in cubic inches. Write formulas for length, width, and volume of the box, each in terms of x .

Answer:

L(x) = 11 - 2x

W(x) = 8.5 - 2x

V(x) = 4x³ - 39x² + 93.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

If a square of x sides length is cut from each corner of the sheet, then it meas the length and width of the box a shortened by x inces from each side, giving a total subtraction of 2 times x inches.

FORMULA FOR LENGTH:

Since, Length is the bigger side of the box. Therefore, it will be taken on 11 inches side of the paper:

<u>L(x) = 11 - 2x</u>

FORMULA FOR WIDTH:

Since, width is the smaller side of the box. Therefore, it will be taken on 8.5 inches side of the paper:

<u>W(x) = 8.5 - 2x </u>

FORMULA FOR VOLUME:

Volume is the product of length, width and time:

V(x) = L(x)*W(x)*H(x)

Height must be equal to the side folds which are equal to length of the side of square = x:

H(x) = x

Therefore,

V(x) = (11 - 2x)(8.5 - 2x)(x)

V(x) = (93.5 -22x -17x + 4x²)(x)

<u>V(x) = 4x³ - 39x² + 93.5x</u>

In each of problems 5 through 11, find the general solution of the given differential equation
Brrunno [24]

The complete question is

"Find the general solution of the given differential equation

y''-y=0, y1(t)=e^t , y2(t)=cosht

The function y(t)=e^t  is the solution of the given differential equation.

The function y(t)=cosht is the solution of given differential equation.

<h3>What is a function?</h3>

The function is a type of relation, or rule, that maps one input to specific single output.

Given;

y_1(t) = e^t

Given differential equations are,

y''-y = 0

 So that,  

y' (t) = e^t, y'' (t) = e^t

Substitute values in the given differential equation.

e^t -e^t=0

                   

Therefore, the function y(t)=e^t  is the solution of the given differential equation.

Another function;

y(t)=cosht  

So that,  

y"(t)=sinht\\\\y"(t)=cosht

Hence, function y(t)=cosht is solution of given differential equation.

Solve number 8 (geometry)
ANEK [815]

Answer:

x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

the word bisects means that it cuts in half (this is how I understand it, not the official definition :D)

so that means

\angle XAB =\angle BAY\\\\2x=100\\\\x=50
