Let the square base has length b and the height of the box be h . It is given that 4b+h=12\\ h=4(3-b)

The volume of the box is V=b^2h=4b^2(3-b).

For maximum volume \frac{dV}{db} =0\\ \frac{d(4b^2(3-b))}{db} =0\\ 6b-3b^2=0\\ b=2

The maximum possible volume occurs when b=3 in.

V_{max} =4(2)^2(3-2) =16 in^3

25m + 100 - 24m - 75 = 68.
Maksim231197 [3]

25m+100−24m−75=68

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

25m+100−24m−75=68

25m+100+−24m+−75=68

(25m+−24m)+(100+−75)=68(Combine Like Terms)

m+25=68

m+25=68

Step 2: Subtract 25 from both sides.

m+25−25=68−25

m=43

Answer:

m=43

jonny [76]

Answer:

18.6 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Best fit line from scatterplot :

y=-12.05x +224.26

x = Number of month

y = charge on battery

Number of months a typical battery uses before being dead completely :

When battery is dead completely ; charge =0, y = 0

y = -12.05x + 224.26

0 = - 12.05x + 224.26

12.05x = 224.26

x = 224.26 / 12.05

x = 18.610788

Hence, 18.6 months before battery is completely dead.
