Solve each problem. Volume of a Box A piece of sheet metal is 2.5 times as long as it is wide. It is to be made into a box with an open top by cutting 3 -inch squares from each corner and folding up the sides, as shown at the top of the next page. Let x
represent the width of the original piece of sheet metal. (a) Represent the length of the original piece of sheet metal in terms of x.
(b) What are the restrictions on x?
(c) Determine a function V
that represents the volume of the box in terms of x
(d) For what values of x
(that is, original widths) will the volume of the box be between 600 and 800 cubic inches? Determine the answer graphically, and give values to the nearest tenth of an inch
2/3 x 3/3 = 4/9
4/9+5/9=9/9=1
1+11= 12
The answer is 12
Answer: 62 mph
Step-by-step explanation: We know that Matthew drove 15 1/2 miles in 1/4 of an hour.
Answer:
D. 
Step-by-step explanation:
First, add 1 to both sides:
Now, you can split this into 2 equations. The value of the absolute value statement will be the same whether the statement inside is positive or negative. Example:
Because of that, the 
could be positive or negative and still be true.
Then, you can solve both of these inequalities. Top one here:
Bottom one:
Divide both sides by a -1 here, but be sure to invert the inequality sign:
The solutions are:
D.
