Answer:

0.785 m

Step-by-step explanation:

(4-2x)(6-2x)x = Volume

Volume = 4x³ - 20x² + 24x

Max volume: dV/dx = 0

dV/dx = 12x² - 40x + 24 = 0

3x² - 8x + 6 = 0

x = 2.54858377, 0.784749563

Max when d²V/dx² < 0

d²V/dx² = 6x - 8

At x = 0.784749563

6x - 8 = -3.29 < 0

1 1/3 miles in 1/4 hours
Romashka [77]

Answer:

So even though it'll be a little strange, you do just take the miles and divide by the hours.  Since 1 1/3 is the same as 4/3 then the rate = (4/3)/(1/4).  

That's the same as 4/3 * 4 = 16/3 miles per hour.  Or 5 1/3 miles per hour.
