Answer:
x= 1.5, y= 3.5
or x= -5, y= 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve by substitution.
Label the two equations:
y= 2x² +6x -10 -----(1)
y= -x +5 -----(2)
Substitute (2) into (1):
2x² +6x -10= -x +5
2x² +6x +x -10 -5= 0
Simplify:
2x² +7x -15= 0
Factorise:
(2x -3)(x +5)= 0
2x -3= 0 or x +5= 0
2x= 3 or x= -5
x= 1.5
Now that we have found the value of x, we can find the value of y through substitution.
Substitute into (2):
y= -1.5 +5 or y= -(-5) +5
y= 3.5 or y= 10

The derivative of a function may be used to determine whether the function is increasing or decreasing on any intervals in its domain. If f′(x) > 0 at each point in an interval I, then the function is said to be increasing on I. f′(x) < 0 at each point in an interval I, then the function is said to be decreasing on I.

Answer:
- 326.6 square inches
- 3402 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The net will be a rectangle representing the lateral area. Its length will be 2π(4 in), the circumference of the box, and its height will be 9 in, the height of the box. On either side of that rectangle will be an 8-in diameter circle representing the ends of the box.
The total surface area is given by the formula ...
SA = 2πr(r +h)
For one box, the area is ...
SA = 2(3.14)(4 in)(4 in +9 in) ≈ 326.6 in² . . . . area of one box
__
There are 144 square inches in a square foot, so the area required for 1500 boxes is ...
(1500)(326.56 in²)/(144 in²/ft²) ≈ 3402 ft² . . . area of 1500 boxes
