a game consists of placing seeds in 24 cups. a player puts two seeds in the first cup, four in the second, six in the third and

so on. how many seeds will be required altogether if the player continues to the 24th cup in this way?

The dimensions and volume of the largest box formed by the 18 in. by 35 in. cardboard are;

Width ≈ 8.89 in., length ≈ 24.89 in., height ≈ 4.55 in.

Maximum volume of the box is approximately 1048.6 in.³

<h3>How can the dimensions and volume of the box be calculated?</h3>

The given dimensions of the cardboard are;

Width = 18 inches

Length = 35 inches

Let <em>x </em>represent the side lengths of the cut squares, we have;

Width of the box formed = 18 - 2•x

Length of the box = 35 - 2•x

Height of the box = x

Volume, <em>V</em>, of the box is therefore;

V = (18 - 2•x) × (35 - 2•x) × x = 4•x³ - 106•x² + 630•x

By differentiation, at the extreme locations, we have;

$\frac{d V }{dx} = \frac{d( 4 \cdot \: {x}^{3} - 106 \cdot \: {x}^{2} + 630\cdot \: {x} ) }{dx} = 0$

Which gives;

$\frac{d V }{dx} =12\cdot \: {x}^{2} - 212\cdot \: {x} + 630 = 0$

6•x² - 106•x + 315 = 0

$x = \frac{ - 6 \pm \sqrt{106 ^2 - 4 \times 6 \times 315} }{2 \times 6}$

Therefore;

x ≈ 4.55, or x ≈ -5.55

When x ≈ 4.55, we have;

V = 4•x³ - 106•x² + 630•x

Which gives;

V ≈ 1048.6

When x ≈ -5.55, we have;

V ≈ -7450.8

The dimensions of the box that gives the maximum volume are therefore;

Width ≈ 18 - 2×4.55 in. = 8.89 in.

Length of the box ≈ 35 - 2×4.55 in. = 24.89 in.

Height = x ≈ 4.55 in.

The maximum volume of the box, <em>V </em><em> </em>≈ 1048.6 in.³

A first number plus twice a second number is 9. Twice the first number plus the second totals 27. Find the numbers

SOVA2 [1]

Create a a system of 2 equations: 2x + y = 27 and 2y + x = 9, with x being the first number and y being the second. solve for the two variables and you'll get the first number is 15 and the second is -3.

Emma has saved £1.35 in 5p coins. How many 5p coins does Emma have?

valentinak56 [21]

To make calculation easier, we first multiply
1.35 × 100 = 135

then we need to find how many groups of 5 are there in 135.
to do so, we simply take
135 ÷ 5 = 27

therefore, the answer is <u>27.</u>

Answer:

4 teams

Step-by-step explanation:

To evenly distribute 14 into 56, you divide. 56/14 is 4.

Therefore the correct answer is 4 teams.

The outside diameter of the igloo is 12 feet. The thickness of each block of ice that was used to construct the igloo is 1.5 fee

mojhsa [17]

The first thing we are going to do for this case is to model the igloo as a hemisphere.
The volume of the hemisphere is:
V = ((4/3) * (pi) * (r ^ 3)) / 2
Where,
r: sphere radio
We have then that the internal diameter is:
di = 12-1.5
di = 10.5 feet
So the radio is:
r = di / 2
r = 10.5 / 2
r = 5.25 feet
Substituting values:
V = ((4/3) * (pi) * ((5.25) ^ 3)) / 2
V = 303.1 feet ^ 3
Answer:
the amount of space of the living area inside the igloo is:
V = 303.1 feet ^ 3
