Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the height of the box . x will be cut at four corners .

each side of the box = 6 - 2x

volume of box V = ( 6 - 2 x )² x

V = ( 36 + 4 x² - 24 x ) x

V = 4x³ - 24 x ² + 36 x

For maximum volume

dV / dx = 12 x² - 48 x + 36 = 0

x² - 4 x + 3 = 0

( x - 3 ) ( x - 1 ) = 0

x = 1 , x = 3 ( not possible )

Possible solution x = 1

Volume  , for x = 1

V = V = ( 6 - 2 x )² x

V = 4² x 1

= 16 m³.

Order the steps to solve the equation log(x^2-15)=log(2x) form 1 to 5
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:x=-5 and x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

log(x^2-15)=log(2x)

Cancel log at both sides we get

x^2-15=2x

Collect like terms

x^2-2x-15=0

x^2-3x+5x-15=0

x(x-3)+5(x-3)=0

(x+5)(x-3)=0

x+5=0 x-3=0

x=-5 x=3
