This problem deals with a weighted average. Since the AP classes count twice as much as regular classes, their grades must be counted twice. It's as if for each AP class he's taking, he was taking two classes. The points of each AP class grade is added twice, and the each AP class counts as 2 classes in the number of classes.

Each AP class counts twice and counts as 2 classes.

Class                                Ben's grade     Points          Number of Classes
AP English                               B               3 + 3                         2
AP Government                       B               3 + 3                         2
AP Algebra II                           A                4 + 4                         2
Spanish                                   B                   3                            1
Physics                                    D                  1                            1
TOTALS                                                       24                           8

GPA = (total points)/(number of classes) = 24/8 = 3

Using the following production tally, determine how many total mousetraps were produced during a shift: Quantity per package: 60
timofeeve [1]
The total number of packages completed was 41 and with 60 moustraps per package so 41 x 60 = 2460. Of these, 52 traps were from the previous shift and 34 were rejects so 2460-52-34 = 2374 produced + 24 in the last unsealed package = 2374 +24 = 2398.

I really need help with this problem steps

Solve for y by setting one equation =to X after that you can substitute the equation into the other one let's set the first one in X= FORM
X-7y=10
-2x+14y=-20

Add 7y to both sides of the first equation to let x stand alone
X=7y+10
Now you can substitute x on the second equation
-2 (7y+10)+14y=-20
Distribute
-14y-20+14y=-20
Add and simplify
Us cancel out =0
-20=-20
0=0
They are the same equations you can also divide the second equation by -2 which would make it look like this
X-7y=10
-2 (x-7y=10)

An open box with a square base is to be made from a square piece of cardboard 24 inches on a side by cutting out a square from e
laila [671]

Answer:

x=4 Inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the Square = 24 Inches

If a Square of Length x cm is cut out from each corner

Length of the Box = 24-x-x=(24-2x) Inches

Width of the Box =24-x-x=(24-2x) Inches

Height of the box = x inches

Volume of a Cuboid = Length X Width X Height

V(x)= x(24-2x)(24-2x)

Simplifying

V(x)=4x(12-x)(12-x)

To determine the value of x at which V is largest, we take the derivative of V(x) and solve for the critical points.

V(x)=4x(12-x)(12-x)

V^{'}(x)=12(x-12)(x-4)

Set the derivative equal to zero to obtain the critical points

V^{'}(x)=12(x-12)(x-4)=0\\Since \: 12\neq 0\\(x-12)(x-4)=0\\x-12=0 \:or\: x-4=0\\x=12 \:or\: x=4

x cannot be equal to 12 as it divides the length of the square cardboard into exactly two equal parts.

When x=4

V(4)=4*4(12-4)(12-4)=16*8*8=1024 Cubic Inches

When x=4 Inch, the volume, V of the open box is largest.
