A rectangular box has a base that is 4 times as long as it is wide. The sum of the height and the girth of the box is 200 feet.

(a) Express the volume V of the box as a function of its width w. Determine the domain of V (w).

Answer: V(W) = (1/3)*(*W^2*800ft - 8W^3) and the domain is 0 < W < 100ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of the box are:

L = length

W = width

H = heigth.

We know that:

L = 4*W

And the girth of a box is equal to: G = 2*W + 2*H

then we have:

2*W + 2*H + H = 200ft

2W + 3*H = 200ft

Then we have two equations:

L = 4*W

2W + 3*H = 200ft

We want to find the volume of the box, which is V = W*L*H

and we want in on terms of W.

Then, first we can replace L by 4*W (for the first equation)

and:

2*W + 3*H = 200ft

3*H = 200ft - 2*W

H = (200ft - 2*W)/3.

then the volume is:

V(W) = W*(4*W)*(200ft - 2*W)/3

V(W) = (1/3)*(*W^2*800ft - 8W^3)

The domain of this is the set of W such that the volume is positive, then we must have that:

W^2*800ft > 8W^3

To find the maximum W we can see the equality (the minimum extreme is 0 < W, because the width can only be a positive number)

W^2*800ft = 8W^3

800ft = 8*W

100ft = W.

This means that if W is equal or larger than 100ft, the equation gives a negative volume.

Then the domain is 0 < W < 100ft.

chelsea deposits $600 into a bank account and is earning simple interest.After 4 years her account has a balance of $621.60.If C
olga nikolaevna [1]
If she deposited $600 and had $621.60 after four years, then she earned: $621.60 - $600 = $21.60 in four years. It means in one year she earned $21.60 ÷ 4 = $5.40. Now we have to find out how many percent of $600 is $5.40:

$5.40 = x% from $600
5.4 = x/100 * 600
5.4 = 600x/100                 / * 100 (both sides)
540 = 600x                       / ÷ 600 (both sides)
x = 0.9

So the interest rate was 0.9% annually.

Now we have to find out how much is 0.9% from $1100:

$1100 * 0.9% =
= 1100 * 9/1009 =
= 9900/1000 =
= 9.9

It means in one year she would earn $9.90. After 7 years she would earn $9.90 * 7 = $69.30, so she would have in her account:

$1100 + $69.30 = <u>$1169.30</u>

Help me please thank you

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

2(x+8) = 40


Discussion:

Rewrite the original Question as

" Twice the (sum of a number and 8) is 40"   =>

2                ( x                              +    8 ) = 40 =>

2 (x+8) = 40


which is the third bullet point from the top


Thank you,

MrB

A right triangle has an area of 18 square inches.If the triangle is an isosceles triangle, what are the lengths of the legs of t
Gnom [1K]
If it is isosceles, than the legs are the same. We will call them X. The formula for the area of a triangle is 1/2 (base * height). But the base and the height are both X. So the area (18) is equal to 1/2 (x * x), or 1/2(x^2). This means that 36 = x^2. Thus, the length of each side is 6 inches. You can check this work by plugging those into the formula for area. You will find that it equals 18.

Answer:

x² + 18x +81

x² - 14x +49

4x²- 4x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply the x in the first parentheses by x and 9 in the other parentheses and

multiply the 9 in the first parentheses by x and 9 in the other parentheses and add all together

(x+9)(x+9)

x² + 9x + 9x + 81

x² + 18x +81

multiply the x in the first parentheses by x and -7 in the other parentheses and multiply the -7 in the first parentheses by x and -7 in the other parentheses and add all together

(x-7)(x-7)

x² -7x - 7x +49

x² - 14x +49

(2x-1)² is the same as (2x-1)(2x-1)

multiply the 2x in the first parentheses by 2x and -1 in the other parentheses and multiply the -1 in the first parentheses by 2x and -1 in the other parentheses and add all together

(2x-1)(2x-1)

4x²-2x-2x+1

4x²- 4x - 1
