Answer: A company saves $134.38 by choosing to make 50 of Box 2 instead of Box 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to calculate the surface area of both boxes.
<em>Surface area (A) = 2wl + 2lh + 2hw,
</em>
Where w is width, l is length , and h is height.
- Box 1 = A = 2(6x20) + 2( 20x4) + 2 (4 x 6) =2 (120)+ 2 (80)+ 2(24) =448 in2
- Box 2 = A = 2 (4x15)+ 2(15x8)+ 2(8x4) = 2(60)+2(120)+2(32)=424 in2
Since 1 inch = 0.0833333 foot
- Box 1 = 448 in2 x 0,0833333 =37.34 ft2
- Box 2= 424 in2 x 0,0833333 =35.19 ft2
Since the material used to make a storage box costs $1.25 per square foot.
- Box 1 =37.34 ft2 x1.25 = $ 46.675
- Box 2= 35.19 ft2 x 1.25 =$43.98
Since 50 of each are made:
- Box 1 = $ 46.675 x50 =2,333.750
- Box 2= $43.98 x50 =2,199.37
Subtracting both costs:
2,333.750(1) - 2,199.37(2) = $134.38
All are correct because negative numbers are always smaller than 0 and bigger negative numbers always are less then smaller negative numbers such as -9 is smaller than -5
Answer:
n = -5, 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
n^2 + 2n - 15 = 0
Let's check if we can factor this quadratic:
We need 2 numbers whose product is -15 and whose sum is +2.
There are 2 such numbers and they are +5 and -3, so the factors are:
(n + 5)(n - 3) = 0.
n + 5 = 0 or n - 3 = 0
therefore the zeroes are -5 and 3.
Answer:
12.2*1=12.2
12.2*0.45=5.49
5.49+12.2=17.69
