Let the number of hours Donnell practiced be d
and the number of hours Marcus practiced be m.
We can set up a system of equations.
d = m + 3
m + d = 11
Substitute the value of d that's in the first equation, into the second equation.
m + (m + 3) = 11
2m + 3 = 11
2m = 8
m = 4
Marcus practiced for 4 hours. Since Marcus and Donnell, together, practiced 11 hours, Donnell practiced for 11-4=7 hours.

Problem 27)

Refer to the diagram that says "problem 27".

This is the graph of y = 5x where x is the time in years, and y is the amount of simple interest in the account.

This equation comes from the simple interest formula below

i = P*r*t

i = 100*0.05*x

i = 5x

y = 5x

Note: The graph is a straight line through (0,0) and (1,5)

=====================================================

Problem 28)

The abscissa is the x coordinate. For a point like (-3, -7), the abscissa is -3.

The ordinate is the y coordinate. For that point mentioned earlier, the ordinate is -7.

The graph of points is shown below in the figure labeled "problem 28".

When graphing any point, we always start at the origin (0,0) where the x and y axis meet up. Then for a point like (-3,-7) we move 3 units to the left on the x axis and 7 units down on the y axis to arrive at point A. The other points are plotted in a similar fashion. The labels A,B,C,D are optional. They were added to help keep track of the points.

The dimensions of a closed rectangular box are measured as 60 centimeters, 50 centimeters, and 70 centimeters, with an error in
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The maximum error in calculating the surface area of the box is 72 square centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

From Geometry, the surface area of the closed rectangular box (A_{s}), in square centimeters, is represented by the following formula:

A_{s} = w\cdot l + (w + l)\cdot h (1)

Where:

w - Width, in centimeters.

l - Length, in centimeters.

h - Height, in centimeters.

And the maximum error in calculating the surface area (\Delta A_{s}), in square centimeters, is determined by the concept of total differentials, used in Multivariate Calculus:

\Delta A_{s} = \left(l+h\right)\cdot \Delta w + \left(w+h\right)\cdot \Delta l + (w+l)\cdot \Delta h (2)

Where:

\Delta w - Measurement error in width, in centimeters.

\Delta l - Measurement error in length, in centimeters.

\Delta h - Measurement error in height, in centimeters.

If we know that \Delta w = \Delta h = \Delta l = 0.2\,cm, w = 60\,cm, l = 50\,cm and h = 70\,cm, then the maximum error in calculating the surface area is:

\Delta A_{s} = (120\,cm + 130\,cm + 110\,cm)\cdot (0.2\,cm)

\Delta A_{s} = 72\,cm^{2}

The maximum error in calculating the surface area of the box is 72 square centimeters.
