Answer:

see explanation

see explanationStep-by-step explanation:

21

Note that

(a - \frac{1}{a})²

= a² - 2 + \frac{1}{a^2}

= a² + \frac{1}{a^2} - 2

= 11 - 2

= 9

Thus

(a - \frac{1}{a})² = 9 ( take the square root of both sides )

a - \frac{1}{a} = 3

22

Since the expression is a perfect square, then

(4x + 5y)²

= 16x² + 40xy + 25y²

Comparing coefficients, then

a - 1 = 40 ( add 1 to both sides )

a = 41

23

99² - 87² ← is a difference of squares and factors as

= (99 - 87)(99 + 87)

= 12 × 186 = 1152, thus

24a = 1152 ( divide both sides by 24 )

a = 48

A box with no top is to be constructed from a piece of cardboard whose length measures 12 inches more than its width. The box is
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Width is 12 inches and height is 4 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the piece of cardboard be = w inches

Then length is = w+12 inches

As given, 4 inch squares are cut from each corner;

So, the width is = w-8 inches

Length is = w+12-8=w+4 inches

When we are folding the cut portion, that gives the height as = 4 inches

The volume is given by : length x width x height

And volume is given as 256 cubic inches

So, 256=(w+4)(w-8)(4)

=> 256=(w^{2}-4w-32)4

=> 64=(w^{2}-4w-32)

=> w^{2} -4w=96

or w^{2} -4w-96=0

=> w^{2} -12w+8w-96=0

=> w(w-12)+8(w-12)=0

We get , (w+8)=0 ; w = -8(neglect the negative value)

(w-12)=0 ; w = 12 inches

And length = 12+12=24 inches

Hence, dimensions are : L = 24 inches ; w = 12 inches and h = 4 inches

We can check by putting these values in equation : 256=(w+4)(w-8)(4)

256=(12+4)(12-8)(4)

=> 256=(16)(4)(4)

=> 256=256
