Answer: The volume of largest rectangular box is 4.5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Volume = xyz

with subject to x+2y+3z=9

So, let z=\dfrac{9-x-2y}{3}

So, Volume becomes,

V=xyz\\\\V=xy(\dfrac{9-x-2y}{3})\\\\V=\dfrac{9xy-x^2y-2xy^2}{3}

Partially derivative wrt x and y we get that

9-2x-2y=0\implies 2x+2y=9\\\\and\\\\9-x-4y=0\implies x+4y=9

By solving these two equations, we get that

x=3,y=\dfrac{3}{2}

So, z=\dfrac{9-x-2y}{3}=\dfrac{9-3-3}{3}=\dfrac{3}{3}=1

So, Volume of largest rectangular box would be

xyz=3\times \dfrac{3}{2}\times 1=\dfrac{9}{2}=4.5

Hence, the volume of largest rectangular box is 4.5 units.

1. The numbers ______ and _____ are respectively the additive and multiplicative identities of rational numbers
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:  0 and 1, in that order

The numbers <u>   0   </u> and <u>   1   </u> are respectively the additive and multiplicative identities of rational numbers.

===========================================================

Explanation:

The additive identity is 0 because adding 0 to any number leads to the original number. For instance, 7+0 = 7. In general we can say x+0 = x or we could also say 0+x = x.

The multiplicative identity is 1 because multiplying 1 with anything leads to that original number. Example: 1*5 = 5 or 9*1 = 1. The general template is x*1 = x which is the same as saying 1*x = x.

These ideas not only apply to rational numbers, but to real numbers as well.

You plug in x for 3 so it would be 10(3) + 2, and 10 times 3 is 30 and 30 plus 2 is 32

An airplane started at point K, travelled 560 miles to point L, adjusted its route and travelled another 575 miles to point M. I
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine theorem:

c^{2} =a^{2} +b^{2} -abcos\beta

952^{2} =560^{2} +575^{2} -560*575cos\beta

\beta =cos^{-1} (\frac{560^{2}+575^{2}-952^{2}   }{2*560*575} )

The angle is 114.014 degrees if we substract 90 degrees it means that at point L the plane changed its angle by 24 degrees
