1 answer:
Only 4 books can be bought in the given scenario
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of books
Then
The cost of books will be represented by 6.50x
According to given statement, that the student cannot spend more than 35
and he also wants to buy one poster worth $5
The inequality will be:
This means that the student can only bur four books and one poster because if he will buy more, the total cost will be more than 30
So,
Only 4 books can be bought in the given scenario

Answer:
V (max) = 2 ft³
and x side of the base is x = 0,5 feet
Step-by-step explanation: See annex ( two different cubes)
We have a square piece of cardboard of 3 inches wide
Let x be lenght of side to cut in each corner
Then the base of the (future cube) is 3 - 2x, and the area is
( 3 - 2x )²
And the height is x Then volume of the cube as a function of x is:
V(x) = ( 3 - 2x )² *x or V(x) = ( 9 + 4x² - 12x )*x
V(x) = 4x³ - 12x² + 9x
Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation
V´(x) = 12x² - 24x + 9
V´(x) = 0 12x² - 24x + 9 = 0 simplifying 4x² - 8x + 3 = 0
Second degree equation solving for x
x₁,₂ = [ 24 ± √( 576) - 432 /24
x₁,₂ = [24 ±√144 ]/24
x₁,₂ = ( 24 ± 12) /24 x₁ = 1.5 feet x₂ = 0,5 feet
Of these two values we have to dismiss x₁ because if x = 1.5 we don´t have a cube ( 0 height )
Then we take x = 0,5 feet
And
V (max) = (2)²*0,5 = 4*0,5
V (max) = 2 ft³
