Answer:

Big Smiles Toy Company should choose Box B as its volume is  82.5 inch^3 larger than Box A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Dimension of Box A= 9 inches width, 13 inches length, 11.5 inches height

Dimension of Box B =14 inches width, 8.5 inches length, 12 inches height

Volume of Box A= Length\timeswidth\times height=9\times13\times11.5= 1345.5 inches^3

Volume of Box B =Length\times width\times height= 14\times8.5\times12= 1428 inches^3

Difference = Volume of Box B - Volume of Box A = 1428 - 1345.5 = 82.5inches^3

Box B has 82.5 inch^3 volume larger than Box A

David & Brad are competing in a 20-mile bicycle race. David rides 6.2 miles in 1/4 hour. Brad rides 11.9 miles in 1/2 hour.

David will finish first, because if you divide Brad's miles by 2 to his miles in a 1/4 of an hour are 5.95 miles. This means David went 6.2 miles in the same time that Brad went 5.95. Therefore, David will finish first.

What is the factored form of 5x2 − 18x − 8? (5x + 4)(x + 2) (5x + 2)(x − 4) (5x + 1)(x + 8) (5x + 1)(x − 8)

Hello! So, this question is in the form of ax² - bx - c. First thingd first, let's multiply a and c together. c = -8 and a = 5. -8 * 5 is -40. Now, let's find two factors that have a product of 40, but a sum of 18. If you list the factors, you see that 2 and 20 have a product of 40, but  2 - 20 is -18. The factors we will use are -2 and 20.

How to factor it:

For this question, you can use something called a box method and factor it by finding a factor of each column and row. Just make 4 boxes and put 5x² on the top left and -40 on the bottom left box. Put 2x on the top right box and -20x on the bottom left box. Now, factor out for each row and column. The factors should be 5x + 2 for the top part and x - 4 for the side. It should look like (5x + 2)(x - 4). Let's check it. Solve it by using the FOIL method and you get 5x² - 20x + 2x - 8. Combine like terms and you get 5x² - 18x - 8. There. The answer is B: (5x + 2)(x - 4)

Note: The box method may be challenging at first, but it can be really helpful on problems like these.
