How do I solve this equation for x?

1) Divide both sides by 2
2x+12^2/3 =16

2) Solve the exponent
2x+12^2/3 =16

(2x+12^2/) ^3/2 =16^3/2 ( raise both sides to power)

2x+12 = 64

3) Subtract 12 from both sides
2x + 12 - 12 = 64-12

2x = 52

4) divide both sides by 2
2x/2 = 52/2

x = 26

Final answer : x = 26

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

slope, m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

plug in the values, and we get m = (3 - (-1))/((3 - 2) = 4

As x increases by 1, y increases by 4.

Find the volume of the largest rectangular box in the first octant with three faces in the coordinate planes and one vertex in t

Tresset [83]

Answer: The volume of largest rectangular box is 4.5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Volume = $xyz$

with subject to $x+2y+3z=9$

So, let $z=\dfrac{9-x-2y}{3}$

So, Volume becomes,

$V=xyz\\\\V=xy(\dfrac{9-x-2y}{3})\\\\V=\dfrac{9xy-x^2y-2xy^2}{3}$

Partially derivative wrt x and y we get that

$9-2x-2y=0\implies 2x+2y=9\\\\and\\\\9-x-4y=0\implies x+4y=9$

By solving these two equations, we get that

$x=3,y=\dfrac{3}{2}$

So, $z=\dfrac{9-x-2y}{3}=\dfrac{9-3-3}{3}=\dfrac{3}{3}=1$

So, Volume of largest rectangular box would be

$xyz=3\times \dfrac{3}{2}\times 1=\dfrac{9}{2}=4.5$

Hence, the volume of largest rectangular box is 4.5 units.
