There is no graph but if I had to guess then I would go with answer choice C


Hope this helps!

Pretty sure the answer would be A, seeing that the number of larva peaked at 450.

Solve. -7x=x^2+12 help
Nat2105 [25]

Hey There!

The answer to your problem is x=-3 or x=-4 both answers are correct!

<u>Step 1: Subtract x²+12 from both sides.</u>

−7x−(x²+12)=x²+12−(x²+12)

−x²−7x−12=0

<u>Step 2: Factor left side of equation.</u>

(-x-3)(x+4)=0

<u>Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.</u>

-x-3=0 or x+4=0

<u>Get your answer:</u>

x=-3 or x=-4

Miguel wants to build a container out of sheet metal that has a volume of about 320 cubic inches . He
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

  cylinder, has the least surface area

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to choose the shape that has the least surface area for the approximate volume desired. In general, the least area for the volume will be provided by a sphere, a "square" cylinder with height equal to diameter, and a cube, in order of increasing area.

__

We are asked to find the area and volume of two rectangular prisms, a cylinder, and a square pyramid. Then, we are to identify the shape with the least surface area. Volume and area formulas will be used for the purpose.

<h3>Rectangular Prism</h3>

The relevant formulas are ...

  V = LWH

  A = 2(LW +H(L +W))

for length L, width W, and height H.

<u>a)</u><u> prism 1</u>

The given dimensions are L = W = 8 in, H = 5 in. Then the volume and area are ...

  V = (8 in)(8 in)(5 in) = 320 in³

  A = 2((8 in)(8 in) +(5 in)(8 in +8 in)) = 2(64 in² +80 in²) = 288 in²

<u>b)</u><u> prism 2</u>

The given dimensions are L = 10 in, W = 8 in, H = 4 in. Then the volume and area are ...

  V = (10 in)(8 in)(4 in) = 320 in³

  A = 2((10 in)(8 in) +(4 in)(10 in +8 in)) = 2(80 in² +72 in²) = 304 in²

__

<h3>Cylinder</h3>

The relevant formulas are ...

  V = πr²h

  A = 2πr(r +h)

for radius r and height h.

c) The given dimensions are r = 5 in, h = 4 in. Then the volume and area are ...

  V = π(5 in)²(4 in) = 100π in³ ≈ 314 in³

  A = 2π(5 in)(5 in +4 in) = 90π in² ≈ 283 in²

__

<h3>Square Pyramid</h3>

The relevant formulas are ...

  V = 1/3s²h

  A = s(s +2H)

for base side dimension s, vertical height h, and slant height H.

d) The given dimensions are s = 10 in, h = 10 in, H = 14 in. Then the volume and area are ...

  V = 1/3(10 in)²(10 in) = 1000/3 in³ ≈ 333 in³

  A = (10 in)(10 in + 2×14 in) = 380 in²

__

<h3>Summary</h3>

The proposed figures have volume and area (rounded to the nearest unit) as follows:

  \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|}\cline{1-4}&shape&V (in^3)&A (in^2)\\\cline{1-4}a&rect prism&320&288\\b&rect prism&320&304\\c&cylinder&314&\bf283\\d&pyramid&333&380\\\cline{1-4}\end{tabular}

The proposed <em>cylinder</em> requires the least amount of sheet metal for its construction. It has the least surface area of all of the shape choices offered.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

For a volume of 320 in³, a cube would have a surface area of 280.7 in². A "square" cylinder would have an area of 260.0 in². A sphere would have an area of 226.2 in². The above areas are somewhat larger because the shapes depart from the ideal aspect ratio.

With some simple rearrangement, we can rewrite the numerator as

2x^3 - 3x^2 - x + 4 = 2(x^3 - x) - 3x^2 + x + 4 \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = 2x(x^2-1) - 3(x^2 - 1) + x + 1 \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = (2x-3)(x^2-1) + x+1

Then factorizing the difference of squares, x^2-1=(x-1)(x+1), we end up with

\dfrac{2x^3 - 3x^2 - x + 4}{x^2 - 1} = \dfrac{(2x-3)(x-1)(x+1) + x+1}{(x-1)(x+1)} \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \boxed{2x-3 + \dfrac1{x-1}}
