1. 6.91 - 1.45 = 5.46
You subtract the notebook from the total cost

2. 5.46 / 0.42 = 13
You divide the cost of a pencil from the left over amount of money to see how many pencils Mark bought

3. Mark bought 13 pencils

B - 13

Okay, we know that Mark brought 1 notebook and the totally is 6.91 while one pencil costs $0.42.

x= number of pencils he brought.
we know the price of 1 notebook + the cost of pencils times the numbers of pencils he brought = total cost.

So the equation will be:

1.45 + 0.42x = 6.91  subtract 1.45 on both sides.
0.42x = 5.46   Then we solve for x by dividing both sides by 0.42
x= 13

So the number of pencils he brought is 13.

What is the maximum volume in cubic inches of an open box to be made from a 12-inch by 16-inch piece of cardboard by cutting out
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

If you start with a 12x16 rectangle and cut square with side length x, when you bend the sides you'll have an inner rectangle with sides 12-2x and 16-2x, and a height of x.

So, the volume will be given by the product of the dimensions, i.e.

(12-2x)(16-2x)x = 4x^3-56x^2+192x

The derivative of this function is

12x^2-112x+192

and it equals zero if and only if

12x^2-112x+192=0 \iff x = \dfrac{14\pm 2\sqrt{13}}{3}

If we evaluate the volume function at these points, we have

f\left(\dfrac{14-2\sqrt{13}}{3}\right) = \dfrac{64}{27}(35+13\sqrt{13})> f\left(\dfrac{14-2\sqrt{13}}{3}\right) = -\dfrac{64}{27}(13\sqrt{13}-35)

So, the maximum volume is given if you cut a square with side length

x=\dfrac{14-2\sqrt{13}}{3}\approx 2.7

Quadrilateral jklm is a rhombus. the diagonals intersect at n. if the measure of angle jkl is 104°, find the measure of angle jk
Paul [167]
The diagram of rhombus JKLM is shown in the diagram below

A rhombus is a quadrilateral with four equal sides and its diagonals intersect perpendicular to each other (makes 90° angles). Opposite angles are equal (the same with a parallelogram). Each diagonal bisects the angle at J, K, L, and M equally

If angle JKL is 104°, the measurement of angle JKN is 104÷2=51°
