Answer:

The number of large boxes is 55 and the number of small boxes is 70

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

A delivery truck is transporting boxes of two sizes: large and small. The large boxes weigh 50 pounds each, and the small boxes weigh 20 pounds each. There are 125 boxes in all. If the truck is carrying a total of 4150 pounds in boxes, how many of each type of box is it carrying?

Let

x ------> the number of large boxes

y -----> the number of small boxes

we know that

x+y=125 -----> equation A

50x+20y=4,150 ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

The intersection point is (55,70)

therefore

The number of large boxes is 55 and the number of small boxes is 70

write an equation in general form of the line passing through (3, -5) whose slope is the negative reciprocal of -1/4
IceJOKER [234]
Negative reciprocal means
-1/4 times x=-1 solve for x
multiply both sides by -4/1
x=-4
so slope=-4
y=mx+b
m=slope, b=y intercpet
y=-4x+b
input 3 for x and -5 for y
-5=-4(3)+b
-5=-12+b
add 12 to both sides
7=b
the equation in slope intercept form is y=-4x+7
that is my standard form
another standard form is
y+4x=7

Westkost [7]
Answer by BlueSky06

The equation described above can also be written as,                    y = -x² + 100x + 4000To get the number of notebooks that will give them the maximum profit, we derive the equation and equate to zero.                  dy/dx = -2x + 100 = 0The value of x from the equation is 50. Then, we substitute 50 to the original equation to get the profit.                    y = -(50^2) + 100(50) + 4000 = 6500Thus, the maximum profit that the company makes is $6,500/day.

This is a "water tank" calculus problem that I've been working on and I would really appreciate it if someone could look at my w
Sedaia [141]
Part A

Everything looks good but line 4. You need to put all of the "2h" in parenthesis so the teacher will know you are squaring all of 2h. As you have it right now, you are saying "only square the h, not the 2". Be careful as silly mistakes like this will often cost you points. 

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

Part B

It looks like you have the right answer. Though you'll need to use parenthesis to ensure that all of "75t/(2pi)" is under the cube root. I'm assuming you made a typo or forgot to put the parenthesis. 

dh/dt = (25)/(2pi*h^2)
2pi*h^2*dh = 25*dt
int[ 2pi*h^2*dh ] = int[ 25*dt ] ... applying integral to both sides
(2/3)pi*h^3 = 25t + C
2pi*h^3 = 3(25t + C)
h^3 = (3(25t + C))/(2pi)
h^3 = (75t + 3C)/(2pi)
h^3 = (75t + C)/(2pi)
h = [ (75t + C)/(2pi) ]^(1/3)

Plug in the initial conditions. If the volume is V = 0 then the height is h = 0 at time t = 0
0 = [ (75(0) + C)/(2pi) ]^(1/3)
0 = [ (0 + C)/(2pi) ]^(1/3)
0 = [ (C)/(2pi) ]^(1/3)
0^3 =  (C)/(2pi)
0 = C/(2pi)
C/(2pi) = 0
C = 0*2pi
C = 0 

Therefore the h(t) function is...
h(t) = [ (75t + C)/(2pi) ]^(1/3)
h(t) = [ (75t + 0)/(2pi) ]^(1/3)
h(t) = [ (75t)/(2pi) ]^(1/3)

Answer:
h(t) = [ (75t)/(2pi) ]^(1/3)

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

Part C

Your answer is correct. 
Below is an alternative way to find the same answer

--------------------------------------

Plug in the given height; solve for t
h(t) = [ (75t)/(2pi) ]^(1/3)
8 = [ (75t)/(2pi) ]^(1/3)
8^3 = (75t)/(2pi)
512 = (75t)/(2pi)
(75t)/(2pi) = 512
75t = 512*2pi
75t = 1024pi
t = 1024pi/75
At this time value, the height of the water is 8 feet

Set up the radius r(t) function 
r = 2*h
r = 2*h(t)
r = 2*[ (75t)/(2pi) ]^(1/3) .... using the answer from part B

Differentiate that r(t) function with respect to t
r = 2*[ (75t)/(2pi) ]^(1/3)
dr/dt = 2*(1/3)*[ (75t)/(2pi) ]^(1/3-1)*d/dt[(75t)/(2pi)] 
dr/dt = (2/3)*[ (75t)/(2pi) ]^(-2/3)*(75/(2pi))
dr/dt = (2/3)*(75/(2pi))*[ (75t)/(2pi) ]^(-2/3)
dr/dt = (25/pi)*[ (75t)/(2pi) ]^(-2/3)

Plug in t = 1024pi/75 found earlier above
dr/dt = (25/pi)*[ (75t)/(2pi) ]^(-2/3)
dr/dt = (25/pi)*[ (75(1024pi/75))/(2pi) ]^(-2/3)
dr/dt = (25/pi)*[ (1024pi)/(2pi) ]^(-2/3)
dr/dt = (25/pi)*(1/64)
dr/dt = 25/(64pi)
getting the same answer as before

----------------------------

Thinking back as I finish up, your method is definitely shorter and more efficient. So I prefer your method, which is effectively this:
r = 2h, dr/dh = 2
dh/dt = (25)/(2pi*h^2) ... from part A
dr/dt = dr/dh*dh/dt ... chain rule
dr/dt = 2*((25)/(2pi*h^2))
dr/dt = ((25)/(pi*h^2))
dr/dt = ((25)/(pi*8^2)) ... plugging in h = 8
dr/dt = (25)/(64pi)
which is what you stated in your screenshot (though I added on the line dr/dt = dr/dh*dh/dt to show the chain rule in action)
