group the 1st 2 terms and last 2 terms:
(Z63 -2z^2) + (9z-18)
factor out GCF:
z^2(z-2) + 9(z-2)
now factor the polynomial:
(z-2) (z^2+9)
Answer:
a. V = (20-x)
b . 1185.185
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
- The height: 20 - x (in )
- Let x be the length of a side of the base of the box (x>0)
a. Write a polynomial function in factored form modeling the volume V of the box.
As we know that, this is a rectangular box has a square base so the Volume of it is:
V = h *
<=> V = (20-x)
b. What is the maximum possible volume of the box?
To maximum the volume of it, we need to use first derivative of the volume.
<=> dV / Dx = -3
+ 40x
Let dV / Dx = 0, we have:
-3
+ 40x = 0
<=> x = 40/3
=>the height h = 20/3
So the maximum possible volume of the box is:
V = 20/3 * 40/3 *40/3
= 1185.185
Answer:
2y = x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the graph, we can see from one point to the next (from right to left), the x-value rises by 2 and the y-value by 1;
From this we can work out the gradient between two points using the formula, i.e. the change/difference in y divided by the change/difference in x:

Joining the points gives a straight line, which means a constant gradient of ¹/₂
Use the line equation formula to get the function:
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
m = ¹/₂
x₁ = 0
y₁ = 1
y - 1 = ¹/₂.(x - 0)
y - 1 = ¹/₂.x
2y - 2 = x
2y = x + 2
Answer:
x = 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that BE is parallel to CD and intersects the 2 other sides, then it divides the 2 sides in proportion, that is
=
, substitute values
=
( cross- multiply )
8x = 60 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = 7.5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
so f-1(x) means we are finding the inverse
f(x) = 3x - 7.....change f(x) to y
y = 3x - 7.....now switch ur x and y and solve for y
x = 3y - 7....add 7 to both sides
x + 7 = 3y...divide both sides by 3
(x/3) + 7/3 = y....rearrange
y = (x/3) + 7/3....can also be written as : y = 1/3x + 7
now just change ur y to f-1(x)
f-1(x) = x/3 + 7/3.....or f-1(x) = 1/3x + 7/3
