If you start with a 12x16 rectangle and cut square with side length x, when you bend the sides you'll have an inner rectangle with sides 
and 
, and a height of x.
So, the volume will be given by the product of the dimensions, i.e.
The derivative of this function is
and it equals zero if and only if
If we evaluate the volume function at these points, we have
So, the maximum volume is given if you cut a square with side length

2.5 pounds of grain cost ======= $1.75
∴ 5.3 pounds of grain will cost ===== (5.3×1.75)/2.5 = $3.71
Answer:
<em> (1). 50.0° ; (2). 15.5 units</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x + y = 15
0.5x + 0.65y = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of oranges
y = number of apples
total of apples and oranges is 15 so x + y = 15
total cost of apples and oranges is $9 so 0.5x + 0.65y = 9
Calculation
y = 15 - x
0.5x + 0.65(15-x) = 9
0.5x - 0.65x + 9.75 = 9
-0.15x = - 0.75
x = 5
y = 15 - x = 15 - 5 = 10
