Answer:

A. We are given that the length of the box is equal to 24 as indicted in the "24-inch long". From the given, it is also stated that the width of the box is 7 inches less than the height. If the height of the box is x, the width is then x - 7. The equation that would let us solve the problem is,

                           2880 = 24(x)(x - 7)

Simplifying,

                           2880 = 24x² - 168x

B. The value of x from the equation is 15. Thus, the answer is YES.

Write the equation of a straight line passing through the point (1,8) and perpendicular to y=3x+2
Neko [114]
Hello there!

The first thing you must do is to find the slope of the line. To do this, find the negative reciprocal of your current equation. Since your current slope is 3, the negative reciprocal of that would be -1/3, which would be your slope.

Now that you have your slope, plug it into the slope intercept equation as well as your known points:
(1,8)  m(slope)=-1/3
8=1(-1/3)+b

Now, solve for b:
8=1(-1/3)+b
8=-1/3+b
b=25/3

Now that you have the slope and the b value, you can conclude that your equation would be:
y=-1/3x+25/3
