Answer:
The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the original length of the piece of metal
y ----> the original width of the piece of metal
we know that
When squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the flaps are folded upward to form an open box
The dimensions of the box are
The volume of the box is equal to
so
simplify
-----> equation A
Remember that
The piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide
so
----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A
solve for y
Solve the quadratic equation by graphing
using a graphing tool
The solution is y=16
see the attached figure
Find the value of x
therefore
The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
Answer:
For the yes/no bit:
step 1: no
step 2: no
step 3: yes
step 4: yes
step 5: no
for the final answer bit: a = 2 3/5 (the last option)
Step-by-step explanation:
yes/no bit:
step 1 is wrong because she didn't multiply by -2
step 2 is wrong because she subtracted 1/2 instead of adding it
step 3 is correct because 6 - 1/2 = 11/2
step 4 is correct because she correctly multiplied both sides by 4
step 5 is wrong because she added 5 instead of dividing by -5.
for the final answer bit, I've attached an image below with my working out. hope this helps!
