Say if the Earth rotates 1.25 degrees in 5 mintues. But a classmate wants to find out how many degrees the Earth can rotate in 2

minutes. She does a problem:  she  puts 1.25 over 5  and divides them both  by 2, and her answer was 0.625 over 2.5.  Explain her error and give the correct rate.
(Please help Thanks!)

Her error was dividing them by 2 she would place 1.25 over 5 then divide by 5 to get the unit rate per minute then multiply the quotient by 2 to get the rate of degrees moved for 2 minutes which is .5  or .50 degrees every two minutes.

Packaging By cutting away identical squares from each corner of a rectangular piece of cardboard and folding up the resulting fl
Vikki [24]

Answer:

Height: 3/2 inches

Length:  12 inches

Width: 4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x is the side length of the square

The height of the box by cutting squares off :x

  • The new length of the cardboard = 15 -2x (because we cut from 4 corners)
  • The new width of the cardboard = 7 -2x (because we cut from 4 corners)

The new volume of it is:

V = (15 -2x) (7 -2x) x

<=> V = 4x^3 -44x^2 +105x

To maximum volume, we use the first derivative of the volume

\dfrac{dV}{dx} = 0

<=> 12x^2-88x+105=0

<=> \left(2x-3\right)\left(6x-35\right) = 0

<=> 2x -3 = 0 or 6x -35 = 0

<=> x = 3/2 or x = 35/6

To determine which value of x gives a maximum, we evaluate

\dfrac{d^2V}{dx^2} = 24x -88

  • If  x = 3/2, we have:

\dfrac{d^2V}{dx^2}= 24(3/2) -88  = -52

  • If x = 35/6, we have:

\dfrac{d^2V}{dx^2} = 24(35/6) -88 = 52

We choose x = 3/2 to have the maximum volume because the value of x that gives a negative value is maximum.

So the dimensions (in inches) of the box is:

Height: 3/2 inches

Length: 15-2(3/2) = 12 inches

Width: 7 - 2(3/2) = 4 inches
