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.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!!!!!!! EASY MATH 25 PTS
Harman [31]

its not worth 25 points but ok here u go let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3y−1=13−4y

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3y−1=13−4y

3y+−1=13+−4y

3y−1=−4y+13

Step 2: Add 4y to both sides.

3y−1+4y=−4y+13+4y

7y−1=13

Step 3: Add 1 to both sides.

7y−1+1=13+1

7y=14

Step 4: Divide both sides by 7.

7y

7

=

14

Thomas invests $50,000 in an account that compounds interest continuously and earns 15%. How long will it take for his money to
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

It will take about 7.3 years for his money to triple.

Step-by-step explanation:

Identify the variables in the formula.

A = 150,000

P = 50,000

r = 0.15

t = ?

A = Pe^rt

Substitute the values into the formula.

150,000 = 50,000e^0.15*t

Solve for t. Divide each side by 50,000.

3 = e^0.15*t

Take the natural log of each side.

ln 3 = ln e^0.15*t

Use the power property and then simplify.  

ln 3 = 0.15*t ln e

ln 3 = 0.15-t

Divide each side by 0.15.

(ln 3) /(0.15) = t

Approximate the answer.

t ≈ 7.3
