\bf \cfrac{\quad2-\frac{4}{x+2} \quad }{5+\frac{10}{x+2}}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{LCD~of~x+2}{\frac{2(x+2)-4}{x+2}}}{\stackrel{LCD~of~x+2}{\frac{5(x+2)+10}{x+2}}}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{distributing}{\frac{2x+4-4}{x+2}}}{\stackrel{distributing}{\frac{5x+10+10}{x+2}}}\implies \cfrac{\quad\frac{2x}{x+2} \quad }{\frac{5x+20}{x+2}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{2x}{\underline{x+2}}\cdot \cfrac{\underline{x+2}}{5x+20}\implies \cfrac{2x}{5x+20}\implies \cfrac{2x}{5(x+4)}

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

width = 1.8 in

length =   3.6 in

height =8-3w =8-3(1.8)= 2.6 in

Step-by-step explanation:

A designer is making a rectangular prism box with maximum volume, with the sum of its length, width, and height 8 in

Let l , w and h are the length , width and height

l +w+h=8\\l=2w

Plug it in the first equation

2w+w+h=8\\3w+h=8\\h=8-3w

volume the box is length times width times height

volume = (2w)(w)(8-3w)\\16w^2-6w^3

To get maximum volume we take derivatived

v'=32w-18w^2

set the derivative =0 and solve for w

0=32w-18w^2\\0=-2w(9w-16)\\w=0 , w= \frac{16}{9}

width = 1.8 in

length = 2w= 3.6 in

height =8-3w =8-3(1.8)= 2.6 in
