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

Add and simplify 1/5 + 1/10
aliya0001 [1]

In order to add these fractions we have to make a common denominator.

1/5 can turn into 2/10 Its the same thing. And its easier to solve with.

now lets multiply.

\frac{2}{10} × \frac{1}{10}

Now we add across

2 + 1 = 3

------------  

10 + 10 = 10 ( When adding fractions like these the denominator stays the same)

So your answer is...

\frac{3}{10}

Good Luck! :)
