To find the cost per yard, divide the cost by the amount:
p: 6.25 / 6.5 = 0.96 --> The cost per yard is $0.96
r: 3 /4 = 0.75 --> The cost per yard is $0.75
b: 8.1 /8.5 = 0.95 --> The cost per yard is $0.95
s: 7.2 / 6 = 1.2 --> The cost per yard is $1.20
In order from cheapest to most expensive:
Red
Brown
Purple
Silver
Hope this helps.
Let x be the distance from Syracuse where they pass. The first car travels a distance of x in time x/65 while the second car travels a distance 240-x in time (240-x)/55. They pass at the same time after leaving their starting points so x/65=(240-x)/55.
Cross-multiplying we get: 55x=65(240-x)=15600-65x, 120x=15600, x=15600/120=130 miles.
They pass 130 miles from Syracuse.

Volume function: v(x) = ((18-x)(x-1)^2)/(4pi)
Since the perimeter of the piece of sheet metal is 36, the height of the tube created will be 36/2 - x = 18-x.
The volume of the tube will be the area of the cross section multiplied by the height. The area of the cross section will be pi r^2 and r will be (x-1)/(2pi). So the volume of the tube is
v(x) = (18-x)pi((x-1)/(2pi))^2
v(x) = (18-x)pi((x-1)^2/(4pi^2))
v(x) = ((18-x)(x-1)^2)/(4pi)
The maximum volume will happen when the value of the first derivative is zero. So calculate the first derivative:
v'(x) = (x-1)(3x - 37) / (4pi)
Convert to quadratic equation.
(3x^2 - 40x + 37)/(4pi) = 0
3/(4pi)x^2 - (10/pi)x + 37/(4pi) = 0
Now calculate the roots using the quadratic formula with a = 3/(4pi), b = -10/pi, and c = 37/(4pi)
The roots occur at x = 1 and x = 12 1/3. There are the points where the slope of the volume equation is zero. The root of 1 happens just as the volume of the tube is 0. So the root of 12 1/3 is the value you want where the volume of the tube is maximized. So the answer to the nearest tenth is 12.3</span>
